Default Hidden Bottles in the C6??

Anyone have any creative installs they can share? I know it would extremely hard to hide a 10 pound bottle, but just curious if anyone has done it.

I thought about this on my c6 as well. The only thing I can think of is to put four of the 1.5 bottles in the 2 compartments in the back. other than that I woldn't know.

NOS makes the 1.0 bottles. Just go on Holley's site since they own NOS.

Seems like a giant cluster £&(k to run a bunch of tiny bottles like that... There's got to be a good hidden place to pit a normal 10 or 15 pound bottle

Yup....10lb won't fit but a 5 lb will. You can install one in each front fender or do the same in the rear fenders. We've had many customers inquire about doing this and we are working on a complete "Stealth" C6 Wet kit right now.

As you can see, there is plenty of room right in front of the rear tire

I'm working on coming up with a remote bottle fill location that would eliminate having to do that.
