Default 2nd Mod installed today

Put my GHL Bullits on. Did it myself, with tips from forum members. I couldn't get her high enough to pull out the OEM's whole, so used a sawzall to cut em up. They sure sound nice. It looks like I might need to adjust them a little still though...

Looking good! I installed Z06 mufflers on my '01 several months ago. I was lucky and had the use of a 4-post lift. The job took less than one hour from start to finish. Enjoy the sound.

Thanks!

And I do need an exhaust plate. I'd like to use a black chrome plate with either a C5 logo or maybe the "bowtie". Ya know, somethin different...

Nice, I just installed the 4" bullets last week. I agree the sound is nice and throaty. I spent about an hour to install and about 2 hours messing with the tips. I think I was being too critical. If you haven't already done so, a cold air intake really make a difference.
Good luck,
Mike

My first mod was a Halltech Stinger, so I'm thinking of doing the cold air mod next. I'll need to study how to do that one. I think it's Dave68 who has a tutorial on it.

I also haven't done the Performance hood seal yet!

Thanks again all, Later.....
