you guys and gals are looking at this at all the wrong angle.
It to me is obvious that the builder has taken into consideration any of the short comings the Corvette has..... The main notable one is how the he%% to change the oil. he has rectified the situation and has even thought considerably about angling the car towards the drain plug for full oil removal. Its even customized for your oil pan needs.

I'd be willing to bet there's no blower on that car, and that scoop is just for looks. Yeah, the hydraulics are not my thing either.
