I ran against C5's and C6's.. and the results look similar.. When bracket racing, I usually have to give most of them at least 2 seconds...

Those runs were all in hot temps and high humidity... Unfortunately, I missed the cool season and only ran in hot weather...

I won't need it anymore, but I highly doubt that it'll fit any other Vette except if someone is running a Super Victor intake with a medium rise ('73 - '77) hood... I highly doubt that it would work for any other setup..
