Speaking of which, it's a shame he stopped making the stainless sidepipe burn shields... i thought those were sweet.

Default Covers

I was just talking to JLC about making some of those covers.If I make some do you think they will sell? And I started a prototype cover that goes on the headers where the front wheels throw all the tar and stones.Both would be made of stainless.

Let me know if some one would like some.

I guess it would depend on the cost. The only reason I hadn't bought a set of the sidepipe burn shields was because he was charging $300 (or am i thinking of something else?) it's been too long, I can't remember.

keep us up to date

After talking to Jim, I decided to make my own...
http://forums.corvetteforum.com/show...s&forum_id=119

And, yes, they were about 300-400. I remember he said they were so much that every WANTED them but nobody BOUGHT them...so he quit making them
