The Callaway Corvette was a [[Regular Production Option|Regular Production Option (RPO)]] B2K, the only time in Chevrolet's history a specialist manufacturer was entrusted with a technically advanced high performance RPO. The B2K option was critical in bringing a select few Corvettes to a higher performance level. Although often compared with Chevrolet's ZR-1 option, they were simply two different approaches to solving the issue of bringing a higher performance Corvette to market. The early B2K's produced {{Convert|345|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} and {{Auto lbft|450}} of torque. [4] The later B2K's produced {{Convert|450|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} and {{Auto lbft|613}} of torque.
