495hp LS3-Powered 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Split-Window
This 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Split-Window has been transformed into a pro-touring restomod by Jeff Hayes. It's powered by a 495-hp LS3 engine packed with L92 heads, a nodular crankshaft, and hypereutectic pistons alongside a 4L70-E automatic transmission and a Dana 44 rear differential. The chassis is upgraded with Coffman Corvette components and features modern brakes with six- and four-piston calipers. The car rolls on chromed wheels with Toyo Proxes 4 Plus tires and sports a Platinum Metallic finish. Inside, it boasts French-stitched bucket seats and AutoMeter American Muscle gauges.
