Does the downpipe run all the way to the back? Great work fitting it in the engine bay!

I was noticing that as well... i've converted to truck coils on mine just to try and alleviate some of that.

Really great job guys. Can't wait to see the car later this week.

I ride in this car all the time and have driven it before and its crazy how cool it stays...he was actually having issues with it getting up to operating temp in the colder months here in TX. Even on hot 100+ days its at 180* tops. I was always jealous because my blower setup ran very hot.

Still patiently waiting on a kit. Even if it's just the hot side.

So bumping old builds for people to check out and possibly get ideas from is a problem. Glad you're such a great Corvette enthusiast 🙄🙄🙄

Well, I for one enjoyed scrolling through this one again. Awesome build. I'd rather have quality content like this bumped up to the top than 5 vendor-sponsored threads.
