Getting ready to do the Z06 brake duct conversion on my c5 coupe and I have all the pieces off a donor Z but I don't have a cutting template. I can get one on ebay ( see first pic ) but it doesn't have the measurements to the bottom edge of the door or top of the rocker. When this conversion was available as a kit back a few years ago they had a much better template ( see pic 2 ). Does anyone sell this style template, know of where you can download one or at the very least know the specific measurements of where to place the template in relation to the door and top of the rocker?

Thanks for the link! I was finally able to get one of those links to open. So the files that opened come in two pages that you have to kind of piece together. I re-drew them in Adobe Illustrator so I could print them as one page on an 11x17 sheet. I printed a couple copies so I can do a little tooling if required once I receive the actual vents to triple check for accuracy.

Once I have all the measurements verified I'll work on making some CAD templates for both sides and the fender liners as well with measurements that a person can transfer off onto a poster paper or a heavier sheet stock for a durable template.

I'll be sure to post the process with photos once I have all the materials handy, either to this thread or I'll link to a new build thread

Hey Bob, sorry it took so long to get this back to you, I took me longer than I thought to get around to this project. I now have a full thread on my install: https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...-template.html

I also have the DropBox link to the Left and Right Side Templates I ended up creating that worked out great for me: https://www.dropbox.com/s/es1vnciv7b...Right.pdf?dl=0

From what I've seen, the C5Z ducts won't work with C6 Z/GS wheels - can anyone verify that for certain?

Anybody have templates for where the ducts go thru inner fender well lining?

Could you send me the diagrams to install the vents. Thx
