When I initially did the LSA install - I just left the sensors attached to the ZL1 lid and supercharger snout - and left them unplugged.

I removed the 2 sensors - and the one on the blower snout I filled in with a Supercharger Vacuum Port Block Off Plate.

Parts Used:
LSX Innovations Supercharger Vacuum Port Block Off Plate

I replaced the Spectre filter that blew apart when I went drag racing.

I was working on an intake upgrade - when I noticed that the filter had torn in half - and the element was laying on the belly trey/pan of the SS.

I replaced the crappy Spectre filter with a larger, higher quality K&N air filter.

Parts Used:
K&N Air Filter: http://amzn.to/2wM19AX

I took the Corvette back to Zmax Dragway for a night of Test and Tune. In this video I mounted the drag wheels and tires. By the end of the night, I dropped over a full second in the quarter - and I got my fastest time ever!

When I got rid of the stock airbox - I left a giant hole in the fender where the intake goes.

I took a VCM blockoff plate - cut a hole for the intake tube to slide through - and wrapped the back of the blockoff plate with a heat shield to keep the engine bay temps away from the intake.

Parts used:
VCM Fender Fill Plate http://amzn.to/2gnfVdM
DEI Heat Shield http://amzn.to/2gok0hD
Cowels Trim http://amzn.to/2iH7c6C

I spent a week in Central Pennsylvania - and we went to Corvettes at Carlisle, the Hershey Tour, and visited the Yuengling Brewery in Pottsville PA.


This is coverage from Thursday at Corvettes at Carlisle.

I parked the Corvette for a weekend - and on Monday it was dead!

I diagnose what is wrong with the Corvette - and get it back up and running!

The Allison transmission in my truck overheated. I tried to fix it by replacing all of the fluid, both transmission filters, and upgraded to the deeper Allison transmission pan - but it still was running warm.

I decided to buy the Mike L transmission cooler - and install it.
After I installed the new cooler - my transmission temps dropped by 30* and I have not had an issue in 2+ years.

The install is pretty simple - the hardest part is getting the front end of the truck off. Swap the coolers - hook up the cooler lines and your done.

Parts Used:
Mike L/Inglewood Transmissions Transmission Cooler
