yeah but gm still calls it a 5.7 liter

[35th-ANV-SS]

yeah but gm still calls it a 5.7 liter

Good point, but are they supposed to call it a 5.67L?

Uh-huh... because simple math says 5665cc rounds up to 5.7ci

David - The paint scheme looks sweet IMO! Are you going to lower the car next? Too many people upgrade the hoood (and I can see why), but I definately like how you worked with the stocker! Sort of reminds me of a similar scheme that I've seen on some C5s. Pretty bad-ass none-the-less though!

[Speedy_Gonzales]

nice ride

[basballny2]

the paint scheme doesnt do anything for me. car looks good though, everyone has different tastes.

I got the stripe from the c5's yes, and i have a z28 so im not puttin an ss hood plus it wouldnt flow with the stripes right. I am wanting to lower the car about an inch but ive gotten some mixed advise about that so. . .

I know lowering should be in a suspension thread, but what mixed advice are you getting?

Nothing wrong with lowering a car an inch IMO. I think it would give it a nice stance. There are other suspension modifications you "should" do when lowering though, which is maybe why some people have said things against it.

Example, lowering will change the geometry of the LCAs, which will decrease traction to the rear tires. The fix for this is to get relocation brackets. Lowering will also change how the rear sits on center with the car, so many people will advise getting an adjustable panhard bar to recenter it. As you can see, shit adds up quick.

I think the hood looks great. But, you should lose the stock grille Love the rims. Not sure about the sail panel though.

Nice looking car.

[dklowrider]

i'm on the fence with the sail panel, i think i might like it though.

lose the decals, that's squirrelly.

good call on the hood. maintain the Z-28's integrity.

I agree 100% with this statement

[cammed goat]

I like it. Has a "Collector Edition" look to it. Like a CE Z06 that there weren't many of. Nice work.

Just because GM advertises it as a 5.7 does not mean its 350 cubic inches. Its 346 cubic inches.
