4th gen is a breeze! GM bean counters took away one of the best features... the simple gaskets. RTV is such a pain.

My builder said this has been a pia because of rtv sealant on timing chain cover and heads. Took him forever to remove radiator he also said. He said next time it would just pull the motor.

We couldn't run car long Because there is no coolant in there yet. I actually decided to hold off on the qtp exhaust until I drive it for a week or so and see if its loud enough for me. The car was loud ass hell

did the oil pan have to come off (wet sump system)? It HAS to come off on the Vette (dry sump).

Have you been down the strip? You basically have all my mods minus cam, i also did not install my flex fuel kit and plan to return it. My tuner said he never did a flex fuel tune before, and i dont wanna be a test car.
