I also ordered a set of Gorrilla locks for the wheels from the guys at Apex Motorsports.

Old vs New

and this time I swapped the lugs on the ground using this little tool from the guys at ZL1 Add-Ons. Sure did make life easier this time around.

When ever I start a build I work with a graphics guy to do a few renderings of what the car may look like when it's complete. This
time I had the pleasure to work with Victor Fulton and I an really excited to show off his work.

Some of you may have already seen the new MRR Design Model 228 Wheels which look very similar to the wheels on the Z28. When
I saw these wheels I new I wanted a set for the car. So I asked Victor put them on the car in rendering.

Then my Dad & my brother-n-law both were pulled over for no front plate so I added this cool little mount.

One of things that has driven me crazy since I acquired the car was the mis-matched calipers.

Bobby at LG Motorsports was able to get me the matching rear caliper and mounting bracket for the rear so this was
one of the first modifications that I planned to do.

This is the front brake kit that was installed on the car as part of the SLP Package.

Since the front tires are so sticky I needed to add a set of splash guards to the front fenders. I picked these up from Showtime and install took about 5 minutes.

I like the new wheels. How do you like the power from the Magna charger?

Each Car is supplied a Dyno sheet and a warranty from SLP on the motor and there modifications. The dyno sheet showed 568hp which is more then enough however if I make a pulley swap and headers I can easily get to 700hp.
