Mark,

Is that intake tube sourced from a GM vehicle?

Is the airflow sensor sandwiched between it and the throttle body?

Intake tube is just aluminum tubing with the sensor added.

The car turned out nice.

Are the front wheel tubs stock or modified?

Inner fenders have been modified to close up the area around the upper control arms. Just looks alot cleaner and Reiters is pretty good with metal.

Outstanding job! Everything just flows great. It's really great to see such a high-tech equipped car without all the bling and body mods. I am sure buying a ZR1 would have been cheaper but it would not be nearly as cool.
