LA-area Venom Install?
 
Topic pretty much says it. I'm looking for a shop that I can have install a VCN-2000 kit, along with all the goodies. Does anyone know of a shop in the LA-area that has done a Venom install before?
TIA
Tim

I know I can't be of any help in the LA area, but after watching an install, it didn't seem too hard. Of course after watching, they never seem hard, right? What car are you going to install this on? For the C5 and Z06, only the VCN1000 will work. :cheers:

It's actually going to be on my brother's WS6 TA. But, since it's an ls1, I thought I'd ask here since I didn't have much luck at ls1.com. I know the VCN-2000 will work on an F-Bod. Why won't it work on the C5?

The VCN2000 needs the car to have a fuel return line(LS1 F-Bodies do, C5s/Z06s do not). The VCN1000 will operate on cars with returnless fuel systems, as well as those that have a fuel return line. Hope that helps. I have no clue why GM designed them that way. It's good news for the F-Body guys though. :yesnod:

Interesting why GM made them different. But, this does explain why it's been so hard for me to find a shop around here to do this. Not too many F-Body shops, and the Vette shops don't deal with the VCN-2000...
Well, thanks for your insight, cyaford, I appreciate it.
