In a bold move six months ago, TJ Hunt acquired a C6 Corvette, delving into the realm of LS-powered vehicles for the first time. The allure of a long-cherished build project has been the driving force behind this acquisition. This video showcases the culmination of half a year's worth of meticulous work condensed into a single, action-packed episode. The team wastes no time, immediately diving into the installation of a roll cage from Cage Kits, prioritizing safety for the track-focused machine.

The meticulous disassembly process unfolds like a carefully choreographed dance, revealing the intricate inner workings of the Corvette. With the body separated from the drivetrain, the team embarks on a journey to explore the engineering marvels of this American sports car. The unique design features, such as the rear-mounted transmission, add an extra layer of complexity to the project. Witnessing the transformation of the Corvette into an RC car-like state is a sight to behold, showcasing the team's dedication to perfection.

As the build progresses, a keen focus is placed on the fueling system, with Radium parts taking center stage. The LS engine undergoes a series of upgrades, including the installation of custom heads by the renowned LS doctor. Amidst the mechanical symphony playing out in the garage, TJ Hunt takes a moment to acknowledge the support of PDS Debt, seamlessly blending automotive passion with financial responsibility. The camaraderie shared with Mar, a skilled driver and friend, adds a personal touch to the high-octane narrative unfolding in this adrenaline-fueled saga.
