Hey Homer2, have you purchased new pistons yet? If not, I have a perfect set of 12k mile pistons and rods that I will donate to the cause.

Oh yes - that was all done - she gets started up tomorrow morning finally.

Picking it up tomorrow - after 30 days away. Final dyno numbers are pleasing - the tuner knows what he is doing.

This is from my factory base - the work they did recently and Kooks with green cats. Total bump from stock makes me happy.

Will a catch can void a warranty? I just got an '18 ZL1 and it now has 4k miles on it. Id like to get 1 on it but still have a solid year left of the warranty left.

It wont impact mine in the least. Not with almost 200,000 miles. As to whether it does - I think the argument is that not technically, but dealerships can be dicks.

There’s some stories floating around of catch cans voiding warranty. I would just remove before bringing to dealer

Testing said 2 cylinders were going away. Seals were leaking. So, lots new parts, LS7 lifters, AFM gone, GPI SS1 cam, OEM pistons etc etc.. Get her back next week - and will start taking better care of her for the next 200K.

Very cool pics! And nice #s. Were the stock #s right before the tear down or earlier? And is that stock heads and intake now?

Far out, I'd be curious to know what half baked excuse they'd use for a catch can affecting warranty ....

The base was from 1.5 years ago before I had anything done. Back then I just added Kooks.. so this sheet is the factory base and now all bits.

Stock intake ( for now ).
Stock heads.
