RALEIGH, N.C. – At least one sheriff's deputy in North Carolina won't have any trouble catching speeders. Multiple media outlets reported Wednesday that the Wake County Sheriff's Department has a Chevrolet Corvette Z06. Chevrolet said the car has a top track speed of 198 mph, with a base sticker price of $74,875. Its V8 racing engine generates 505 horsepower.

Sheriff's spokeswoman Phyllis Stevens said the car didn't cost the county any money since it was seized from a drug dealer.

Wake County isn't the first to used souped up cars.

Former Davidson County Sheriff Gerald Hege once had a Chevrolet Impala SS with a Corvette engine

Former Forsyth County Sheriff Ron Barker used several Camaro Z28s for traffic enforcement.

but yet your making the assumptions that he didnt swap out his ss for a ls motor or maybe ditched the iron headed/torque cam/2 bolt main lt1 out of the ss and tossed in an aluminum headed 4 bolt main motor.

Impala SS, with an original Impala engine...better than this guy's corvette engine.

That is not what they meant.

and you know this how???

[BigAls87Z28]

The big "selling" point was that the 94-96 Impala SS had a "Corvette Engine".

Odd part is, the 350 made its debut with the 1967 Camaro SS.

I only drive cars with Corvette engines, or Corvette-esque engines.

Because I randomly make up **** to fit my point of views.

Sweet decals yo

[maroman88]

94-96 CAPRICE 9C1's had the LT1 "vette" engine as well.... the impala and caprice of those years did not have the aluminum "vette" heads tho

[LTb1ow]

Never was a 4 bolt main engine, so IDK how "vette" ish they were aside from the aluminum heads verus iron. But thats an F bod thing too...

[Knipps]

I had a Caprice with a vette engine, it was sweet. :burnout:

[jhp69]

Man that vette looked BAD.

I absolutely did. I made this thread because it pisses me off when people say they have a "corvette" engine, amongst other things...Then I posted a picture of my Dad's Impala just because it's way badder then this sheriff's impala.

Beat me to it. A 350 is a Camaro engine.

Just Sheriff of building transmissions... It's a title I just gave to him.

[Miles]

haha thanks..i'm getting rid of all the chrome moldings and stuff like that....its still a caprice since there are going to be NO impala ss badges on there.

but yet your making the assumptions that he didnt swap out his ss for a ls motor or maybe ditched the iron headed/torque cam/2 bolt main lt1 out of the ss and tossed in an aluminum headed 4 bolt main motor.

an LS motor has 4 bolt mains? or am I reading this wrong?

[NastyEllEssWon]

you read it wrong.


i said maybe he swapped in a ls motor OR HOW DO YOU KNOW HE DIDNT DITCH THE IRON HEADED 2 BOLT MAIN LT1 IT COMES STOCK WITH AND PUT IN A 4 BOLT MAIN ALUMINUM HEADED VETTE SPEC LT1



ls1's are six bolt mains

[badzracing]

an LS motor has 4 bolt mains? or am I reading this wrong?

I think you missed the "OR" in his statement. Everyone knows that God blessed the "ls" engine with 6-bolt mains.

[dmheer08]

I THINK THIS IS THE VEHICLE EVERYONE IS REALLY REFERRING TO

I find it awesomely hilarious how personally you seem to be taking this thread :lol:

[NastyEllEssWon]

who's taking what personally??? i just hit the shift button for emphasis. if you take anything personally on the web then you got problems. :rofl:

[Firebird67dude]

My car has a LT1 vette engine in it. So does 69novaguy, and Kasey has the rare v6 vette engine in his Camaro.

[Savage_Messiah]
