  • Its Been Awhile: Update!

    Well about a month ago I sold the '00 V6 and ever since I have been doing odds and ends and upgrading the '96 Z28. Recently I've put on Ceramic Coated Pacesetter longtubes and ORY along with a Hooker catback. Had to get a new alternator and general maintenance crap on it, but its all worth it. Here are some pics and then a video. (I know the tips are low and stick out to much, but I think it looks badass in person, haha)

    In the summer I want to get it tinted and maybe get an intake and just low end stuff.

            Those tips stick way too far out, you might want to put a red flag on the end so someone doesn't hit one of them driving behind you. LOL

                I didn't notice the video, just watched it , thats smoke alright rings are going on it or head gasket leak something is leaking somewhere. I wouldn't rev it either with it leaking somewhere, I would baby it until you find the problem. Sounds good though, I'll give you that, but for how long? Who knows. I'm not being mean or anything like that, just the tips are way too far out and your burning oil somewhere. I like the black, maybe some rear side markers, rear lights and 3rd light with VHT balck tint would look alot better , just my opinion though.

                  lt1s run a bit rich, add to that LTs and ORY and you'll have some smokage. dont know if you've done it or not but you need to pick up a lt4 knock module or the car is more than likely pulling a load of timing due to the lt1 picking up false knock from the LTs.

                      Good for him then if it is just running rich, I know it sounds great. I would do something with those tips though.LOL, Lt4 KR module is a must for modded LT1's with false KR. So are the 3800's , I have mine reduced by 40%, using resistors, it still picks up KR but not as sensitive as it use to be, 7 years with no problems can't complain. I know my V6 will never sound like that LT1 which is bad@ss, but I will have around 400 HP once I'm done with mine.

                          See the tips arent even bad in person or from the side. My friend just had the camera placed hella low making the tips seem far worse than they actually are. I think the tips look real good in person, just from the wrong angle they seem obnoxious. As for the smoke, my uncle said it would do that for a little bit just for the break in. It doesn't smoke anymore, or never did after that day, because that video is the first time I took the car out with the exhaust done.

                            They probably go past the underside part of the bumper about an 1 in. - 2 in. It helps that the tips are stainless steel so I'd rather have them stick out a tad and show them off then have them tucked underneath.

                              Thats true it will smoke out after a new exhaust, looked scary though there for a minute.LOL
