This 2001 Corvette Z06 boasts a built 406ci engine by JRE, which has approximately 12,000 miles on it. The total mileage on the odometer is correct for the rest of the car. The powertrain benefits from a robust Centerforce clutch featuring a remote bleed system, a Callies crankshaft, Callies rods, Diamond Pistons, Comp Cam ZR1 lifters, Bushing rocker arms, CNC-ported heads, and titanium valves. Cooling is managed by a Dewitts radiator paired with a Gspeed thermostatic oil cooler for maximum cooling.
The original transmission was overhauled to meet Tick Performance's level 2 specifications, which includes a full teardown, cleaning, and rigorous inspection. The upgraded assembly features Bronze fork pads on gears 1-4 as well as 5-6 and Reverse, Billet synchronizer keys with strengthened springs for the 3-4 shift, new OEM keys and springs for the 1-2, 5-6, and Reverse gears, and high-performance Carbon Fiber synchronizer rings. The mainshaft was replaced with a G-Force 9310 Alloy upgraded version sporting a 27-spline design, and all seals front, inner and outer rear, rail, and wiper have been replaced with new ones. The transmission's end-play was adjusted to Tick Performance's specifications.
Exhaust gases flow through AR headers and mids, concluding in the stock C5Z titanium muffler for a thrilling cat-less V8 sound. The vehicle is equipped with a Wilwood Aero 6 front brake system, including new rotors and Hawk high-torque, high temperature pads, along with a matching Aero 4 rear brake setup, together bringing the car to a stop on a dime.
The induction system is enhanced with a Lingenfelter long snout intake, supplemented with ducted cooling and MSD insulated wires. Driver convenience is heightened with an auto-blip rev-matching system for flawless downshifts. The driver interface is improved with a Nex hub/adapter, OMP quick-release steering wheel, while the airbag light has been appropriately disabled.
For seating, it's equipped with Corbeau A4 seats on sliders, offering the versatility of recline and quick-click harnesses, paired with a Brey Krause harness bar for secure and comfortable track sessions. Underneath, heat shielding lines the transmission tunnel to maintain cabin comfort. The exterior sports an APR wing with an aluminum sandwich plate for durability, smoked tail and side light covers for a sleek appearance, and a Johnny O'Connell suspension and sway bar setup for precise handling. Shifting is a pleasure thanks to a Hinson short shift kit with anti-venom mod shims. The car runs on Evans waterless racing coolant, Spectro golden oil, Synchromesh in the transmission and differential, and DOT4 brake fluid, ensuring that all systems are operating with high-performance fluids. This 2001 Corvette Z06 is a thoughtfully upgraded machine, ready to deliver exhilarating driving experiences on the street or at the track.

While enjoying SEMA it became abundantly clear that most 4X4 and performance vehicles displayed were never going to see the road…on or off! It was also clear that 99% of the population could not afford one of them. Don’t get us wrong, these are some of the most incredible machines you will ever find.
However, NFI wants to offer 4X4 & Performance Vehicles to be both admired and used.
Our team has been significantly improving every aspect of Jeeps, 4WD’s, & performance vehicles over the past 20+ years. Our goal is to take that experience and offer extraordinary vehicles at justifiable prices.
