Reference my pics if you want that same setup. He had my car for a week to do it. There's still some small improvements to be made, but I'm very happy with the product. One day when I have extra time, I will do the string and tape method and get a GoPro under there to see how much function is happening.

Keep me posted, I would be willing to buy one if pricing is somewhat reasonable.

Not terrible, but definitely not cheap maybe that will be on the next round of mods.

i still dont see the point. the car doesnt have a flat bottom so all the air thats going under the car is still going to go up and on top of the diffuser and get trapped in the bumper. some will stay down and get used but your just adding to your parachute like adding a rear snow plow to hang lower and scoop up even more air for the bumper.

Hey guys,
Love the thread. The ZL1 1LE has been a cad that has eluded me as I have been tracking other projects and never had a ZLE. 20+ years tracking hard b/c I enjoy it. Some NASA wins central region in my track prepped EVO IX RS. Questions: (I’m shopping and can finally get my first 1LE project) * is a 600HP NA SS 1LE better option than ZLE for track use? There is a new one for sale with this quoted engine package. * Does any ZLE need an ice box to prevent heat soak? * Does the Exorcist 1000HP in ZLE trim have any place on track?

800 WHP will allow you to keep up with McLaren 765s on straights, there is no point to more power for high level road course work. |

Thanks for reply. Agree with dedicated track build. Since my car is duel purpose, I am looking at $50k for 600HP SS 1LE or $75k for stock ZLE.
What about heat soak on stock ZLE set up?

Keep it relatively stock and the ZLE wont have the heat soak issues. hey start to have issues when you up the PSI on the supercharger since its working harder.

I added an intercooler tank more to make sure there is no air in the system. The air can expand and cause cavitation, which shuts down the coolant pump. The car is otherwise fine even in 100F+ air temps. NA cars make less power then too, so its a wash to me.

What are symptoms of having some air in system? I have never bled the system on my 2018 ZLE. |
