New Royal Muffler Z06 Project Rolling On Forgelines

Who is “Royal Muffler,” you may (quite reasonably) ask? If the name brings to mind jewel-encrusted, ermine-lined exhausts, you’re not too far off – they’re high-end fabricators out of Chatsworth, California, but a look at their project car portfolio shows that they’re about a lot more than just mandrel-bent tube. They’re done everything from exotics and euro luxury cars to sport compacts, hot rods, and trucks, but what makes them interesting to us is their latest project – a track-ready Corvette Z06 [1] that we’d love to get our hands on…

[2]We haven’t scared up too many details on the car yet, but one obvious upgrade are the matte black Forgeline ZX3R’s in 18×10.5 up front and 19×13 in back.

[3]Rather than the standard 5-lug setup, they’re utilizing Forgeline’s Center Lock Conversion system [4], which puts application-specific adapters on the car that use special lug nuts to act as drive pins for the wheels.

The end result is a very lightweight wheel that is set up for quick changes on the pit road – and it looks pretty damn good, too…
