Amazing! Who and what was done to that FAST intake to get it black and the letter colored like that?

Powder coat, paint or ??

I don't think I could pull my baby apart like that, but what a difference that has!

He's just being another camaro-light douche. Everyone loves to jump that bandwagon, up until they no longer have the newest and coolest corvette.

Wow.

Top shelf build without a doubt.

How much $ just for the parts?

How do the All Pro heads compare to PRC, Brodix etc?

Nice work! That engine looks awesome. What is your expected HP/Torque?

Any photos of the interior work?

You took everything that was good and made it amazing. There is so much attention to detail here, simply stunning.

Excellent build! Can't wait to see more.

Are most of your carbon pieces "hydrocarbon" or are they "overlayed"? I'm obviously excluding the ZR1 roof and hoop (which are extremely nice touches).
