    Just a small update. My dewitts radiator wouldn't work so we have to go with something custom. Went with a dual-core that'll be 6" thick and 60% larger than my dewitts. I also went with a single 3700 cfm fan, 4" intercooler piping, 5" intake pipe and 5" filter.

    The intercooler sits much further inside the front bumper. There's a little bit more room. The radiator is a little sorter in length. It should fit offset towards the drivers side.

    Ok, that helps out. I know you are short on space and that thing looks huge!

    We cut like 6-8" of the bumper and slid the intercooler all the way up to the grill.

    I haven't really been updating this. I figured I would give the one or two people following this build some updates. The car is finished. Just waiting on the snow to melt and the salt to wash away before I take it to get tuned.

    I have to ask. After all the effort and expense you have expended, would you do it again?

    Rob at Rogue Race Cars did the fab work. I'm not sure if I can answer that. If my car runs what I want it to. Then yes. But I'm at the point that if I break something major. I'm screwed. I went way to far with it financially. It was nearly a $80,000 car to begin with. There's no transmission that'll hold that much power except a 2 speed powerglide. And that's a $30,000 conversion with it being a trans axle. At the same time. There's probably only 5 other 1500+hp streetable Corvettes in the work. If all else fails I guess I could turn it into a show car lol.
