Thank you! I was glad to. I had so much fun doing the install, minus messing around with the catch can on the intake box, which looks ugly still, but I'll get to it..

I wrestled with getting the ZL1, because my dream car is a C8 Z06, and getting the ZL1 meant not affording the Z06 in the medium term. So I got the SS1LE to 'hold me over'. But I felt the 6th gen magic in this car and instead of making the trade to a ZL1 (my car is virtually showroom condition) I rolled the dice on the 2650. With the power it puts down, and the fact I did the work myself, it's a really hard value to beat. It pulls like a freight train, sounds incredible, and makes me smile every time I fire it up.

Now I'm already looking at a CAM and some forged bottom end work..

This will likely live forever in my garage, hopefully in the space next to my future Z06.
