Are the rails silk-screened or milled with the customer's name?

Nice plumbing

Love the looks but will it fit on a corvette? I tried the same rails and it wouldn't fit under the cowl. Good Luck, looks awesome!

We have a good amount of these on vettes. Its a very tight fit. WE had to machine the bracket way down and tuck the rails in to fit. Its alittle tricky

Yes, it's going on my 00' Lingenfelter Vette. I knew Dave and the guys (and gal) at Nitrous Outlet could handle this project. I only have the best, and Dave is simply the best. Thank's Dave, I am in the process of wiring up the progressive controller, and the dedicated fuel cel you made for me. I have a lot of customers here in Houston waiting anxiously for me to get done.

Thanks again Dave...... You guys rock!!
