C8 guy here. I'm wondering if there are any Lingenfelter owners here. I'm interested in their C8 427 CID package and wondering how other NA guys feel about the Lingenfelter engines. Seem really stout.

I have not done anything to my C7Z yet but have thought about the Stage 1 package they offer for like $5K. 720hp package. I do have a C4 with a LPE 383 I bought from them and installed myself. If I do anything to my Z it will be with them.

My C4 ZR-1 has been to Lingenfelter twice and most recently been to the ZR-1 Specialist, Marc Haibeck. They found a couple thing that were installed incorrectly from Lingenfelter.

You're paying for a name.

Lingenfelter is old trusted tuner connected with Corvette for many generations... Easy on blaming them. 🤨

Well it's a different story on the 5th gen Camaro forum. Plus, the tuning depends on who is doing the tuning, not the shop the car is in. I know great tuners who don't have name recognition.

I'm also not bashing them, just telling what I read on other forums.

Meh... if you want customer service - LPE isnt it. Communication skills are terrible at best.
The guys in the shop did a great job and Im happy with my performance (outside of a small oil leak). 700 hp dyno run and it sounds great.
It was left outside on more than one occasion, and bird crap was left on the roof in two places (went straight from paint to LPE). Had to have the buffed out and repainted.
Its kinda like a trip to the dentist... a bad experience when you are there but I do smile a lot now that its over.
