Going a step further with my custom otr cai

the bow tie is directly in the way and will limit airflow quite a bit. Found this badgeless grill for 80 bucks and think they look fine without the bow tie . Thought about doing the flowtie grill but they want 400 bucks. Not paying that

That would look good. I removed just about everything in front of my OTRA and used sheet metal to funnel all the air to it.

Stock refreshed LS7, she put it in her camero after the LS6 ate itself on a money shift. The LS7 lasted a few hours before it started making milk shakes.

INB4Hiollary shows up mad.....

I think it was in the old BS thread but long story short HIO had been hyping an ls7 he had sitting to the side his ls6 popped and went to swap the ls7 in and it popped ........ Condensed version.

Damn that’s rough luck

Must have cost a few dollars, too bad.

LS7 Camaro is a wonderful thing -

No need for him to be mad

Did he refresh it?

Looks good but I would probably do the flowtie grill.

Getting pissed off. The trunk lid on my 18 Camaro SS got a chip in the paint at around 400 miles. Didn't think much of it, figured a rock flew up. Washed it today and there are 5 more chips in the same area. Thinking there was a contaminate on the lid before paint and it's flaking off. Gonna see if GM will fix it, but if not, I might be whipping out the old paint gun.

I just can’t pay 400 for it. Out of basic principle. It’s bullshit

i could cut out my stocker but I have a glowtie front. Sure I can get decent money for it. Or might just hold on to it

She's had a rough run on motors in that camero. Karma can be a bitch I guess.

I'm sure she'll chime in on how the LS7 came to her possession. (IIRC, it was given to her when she was a pro tire changer for a race car team.)

I get that, but I don't get why it's chipping where it is. It stays under a car port, and these chips are dead center in the lid, so any rocks would have to miss the spoiler.

The best part about the LS7 **** rug says is how he explains until he's blue in the face that the issue wasn't foreseeable. You know, how the rest of us know we have an issue and continue to beat the crap out of our cars. Oh wait nobody does that.

Aka "Guys it was an act of God and wasn't my fault".

Remember all the years of **** talk about how fast she was gonna be when she finally drops the "7" in the camero? oh boy

Note: this "7" was FBO when she dropped it in too. So who knows what she did to the motor internally.....

Should have been good for 550whp

Hey, just got into a “talk” (rather loud) with the wife about another C6Z - she listens to Dave Ramsey all the time. Wants to save every dollar until we’re 70 then we’ll be millionaires- and too old to do a damn thing.

Theres a balance - in life

I pay student loans for her p/t job then pay 75% of remaining bills.

Women

Looks like the 5.0 will end up runnng 8’s

Of course our of spite for my wife now

I know, I know - TMI

Too much whisky on a Sunday (Thank you Jesus) - Amen
