    sure, I could help anyone who wants to do the swap. I have the tune worked out for the e67 ecm. This solves a lot of headaches:thumbsup

    Interesting thread. I jut put c6 z51 bars front and back. Definately helps with handling. I'm torturing my rear tires with the turbo ls3 right now. I think I can get a 10" wide wheel on the back and move up to some wider rubber.

    The tuner is well known in michigan. He goes by "roadrebel" on the corvette forum. The difficult part of the swap is the electronic parts. The e67 ecm is the same as the corvette ZR1. He had to remove the northstar copmponents and load in the zr1 segments. The car now runs and drives like...

    Well, I got a call from the tuner. It took a while to get the zr1 ecm to talk to the Xlr trans computer. It's all good now. Initial dyno results at 11 psi put down 600 rwhp and 650 rwtq. This is through the extremely restrictive stock muffler. Not bad if you consider the stock northstar...

    I just completed the motor part of the swap. I did how ever upgrade the brakes to c6 z51 rotors and upgraded the suspenion with 6 z51 sway bars front and rear. I want to see how the car drives after I get my new rims. I believe I can get a 10" wide rim on the back. I sort of like the way...

    Thanks, I bought this car because I have a spare engine for my Corvette. It's been very interesting to Convert the car to an LS3 motor. I'm slowly collecting some unobtainable parts! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Hi guys, I am an new owner of a 2009 raven black car. I have some other sports cars; but i like that you don't see many xlr's around town. The northstar was a little tame for me; so it is now a twin turbo ls3 xlr with 750 rwhp.:D:D
