Nice build! Jon and Casey at Huron Speed are awesome guys to deal with. |
im liking this build |
In for the subs. Nice build you got there. Looks real good. Can't wait to see what she does. |
Engine will remain SBE for now, also will stay stock heads and cam. Clutch is stock, tranny and diff are stock but it does have a Hoosier dte brace. This is a complete baseline test for a stock car. I'm sure my clutch will slip, and I'm sure I will break things, but I'm testing it with this kit and will upgrade accordingly. |
I'm happy for you, but aggravated as hell also, lol. I begged and PLEADED with them to make a C5 kit. By the time it's ready I've moved on to a C6Z... Kit looks AWESOME I must say!! Hats off to Jon and crew for bringing it to fruition! Looks gorgeous! |
Looks like a high quality kit. Nice looking C5 too. |
Thanks, planning on busting a few hellcats, coyotes, and other non Gm products with this beast lol |

I will buy more if it needed else where. <br/>Losen the wires and just play around with them. This gave me plenty of room. |

Everything Looks fantastic. Jon and Casey are great helped me out with my kit. Cant wait to see this together! |
high temp heat sleeving/wrap, plastic zip ties....just something to think about :) I'll be watching this closely. can't wait to see your results and how well the kit is designed. :nod: |
Yeah, you are right, but that motor mount doesn't see that much. It's on the cold side of the turbo, but not close enough to melt :) thanks for the point out though! |
