Haven't seen that mentioned before..

Looks like such a pain in the ***.

Such a cool concept though.

Looks good.

Anyone ever remove/cut out that front bar? Or swap it out for tubular? I want to cut at least 1/2 mine out and box it in to fit more room for FMIC/filter.

I've seen a silver C6Z cut out the front bumper bar and remake it out of tubing. I think it had a 440-something F1X w/ a front mount A/W...

It looks like you have a really bad *** project on your hands. I can't wait to see it complete. Good luck with everything!

radiator (before -20 fittings) from DeWitts



question of the day, anyone use one of these? is there a more compact offering directly behind the starter gear? (powermaster 9500 series) 9509 is the lsx flavor



considering this color wrap 'frozen black chrome'





p.s. i am looking for a forum sponsor to cut me a deal on all led conversion for the car (some interior lighting will not be used) looking to cut amp draw measurably.

Yeah I used one of those Powermaster starters worked ok I didn't have a million miles on it, but it didn't really give me any issues. I needed it on my TT F-body because of the extra space and the infinite adjustablity. But on my C6Z I used a late model truck starter. it was WAY smaller and had the same plug that the factory starter used. ACDELCO-19180529 if your just looking for a smaller one. might take a look at it. was considerably cheaper than the stock unit. I was going to cut the plug and put a ring terminal when I found this one pretty cheap. Looking good!

i need maximum clearance ahead of the lower section of the starter.

i also looked at the truck starter, and the powermaster is shorter still by about an inch

Cool deal, just giving you the few options I had looked into. I run the truck one as it worked great for my little TT set up. Keep us updated, its starting to take shape finally.
