I love the dash, as well as the rest of the car, looks great!

Stock subframe with tubular A-arms and QA1 coil overs. Power rack. Drives very nice. Very little roll for no sway bars.

Thanks.

Appreciate the info, happen to still have the Griffen part #? Did you have to add the fan mounting tabs?

Thats the great thing about using the factory fans and a factory replacement rad, the tabs are factory, it all goes together. I do not have the part number, but if you go to Summits website and select 2001/corvette/cooling/radiators/griffen you'll see one for an automatic one for a standard. It lists the physical size. You'll see its almost identical to what would go in our cars factory. Its 24x18, most factory gm muscle car rads are 26x18. I just had to trim the lip off the core support rad tray.

Jason,
Looking at the front steering setup. What rack did you use? Was it a kit? Also, what was the oil pan and motor mount setup you use to clear it all?

Thanks for the help!

Found them on eBay when I built the car. They were stainless steel shorties. They were made by an individual shop. Cheap too. Nice quality.

I think these are the same.

Check out eBay item 171077587634
