But you can get the same mahcine like identical and it run different maybe hotter or colder so you got to run it on a peice of scrap to get it dialed in.

Those are really good machines the syncrowave 250, thats what i started out learning on once you get the settings right they weld really good and nice welds , shiney welds . Fuck a welder thats air cooled sometimes you got to use them but what you got is were its at all day !

Cool build. I'm always learning from your videos. I believe this is the third spot you've set your lift up at. Do you check the depth of the concrete before set up? What's your take on this? I believe I have 3" concrete in my barn and wanted to know what you think. Thanks!

Have you tried this on c8 z06 yet?

09+ models you should drain the dry sump oil lines and it gets out a whole extra quart, so it actually takes 11.5 quarts

Question: when you got done, what did your STFT and LTFT look like? With my Corsa intake, Speedmaster TB, and the LSX intake, mine look like +18 on the LTFT. Did you make the adjustment for this in your tune?

Good explanation of your intentions, I am particularly looking forward to your experience with the brake package. You are choosing from Kns, I talked to the owner on the phone for a while and he is a very knowledgeable guy.

Slow

To help you out I have a brand new btr v2 stage 2cam if you are interested. Also know the exhaust duration. Btr may not like that I provide that info on here. However, the overlap is 9.

Could be wrong but isn't Michigan Motor Sports Chinese imports?

Have you tried a shifter kart? A blast to run without all the cost.

Hey, I have the same year and color car as yours, just hit 20K miles. It's mostly stock, except for the heads done with valve guides and porting at Texas Speed (did that at 13K), plus an MGW shifter. I'm considering a trunnion bearing upgrade and was wondering about roller rockers-have you done or thought about that? I agree with you on the "gentlemen's car" approach. People constantly push me to do cams, exhaust, etc., but I'm not interested. I’m a bit older, so I get where you're coming from. I've thought about tracking it but ....

Chris Sullivan has a great video on fixing the leather dash issue. Worth checking out. I'll be following your build along. Looking forward to it.

2008 Z06. I'm running a 223/245- .625/.598 -116 lsa. Milled heads .Ported fast 102 intake 102 tb ..On E85. Compression is 12-1 The car runs great and drives just like stock. If you're interested in seeing how the car runs, let me know. I am in Palm Beach County.

You'll enjoy the car so much more after those modifications. A buddy of mine has a velocity yellow with a mild cam, comp 11:1 and on E85. That thing is absolutely perfect for the street and at WOT it put a hurting on verified 750whp mustangs, camaros and poor fat 😺. I can get you in canst with him if you like. We're in WPB FL. Not a sales pitch, just info that might help you. Great content!

Perfect explanation thanks!

Excited to see this thing come together and get out on track man!

I like where your going with this build. I HATE the exhaust smell all over my clothing.

Your Z06 Is and sounds AMAZING! leave it and let passengers wear ear defenders

I was excited to see you post again today, I enjoy your content! Being in my mid 50's and have been meaning to do HCI on my 2008 C6Z for several years now, I'm glad you posted this. I've been slowly picking up parts to make it happen (I have the headers, MSD intake, and NW 102), but I still need to get the heads and cam, along with all the other odds and ends. Heads, I was considering going with aftermarket castings (TS maybe?), and the B3 cam as that cam seems to be proven and is known to make 600+ rwhp. With that said, I don't want to end up with a bucking bronco and not be able to cruise on the highway in 6th gear at 75 mph either. Trying to get anyone to be subjective about this cam when it comes to manors has been tough, everyone just raves about the power and never really wants to talk about around town street manors in much detail. I'd like to hit 600 rwhp, but I'm starting to think the B3 might be a little more than I want to deal with. Something like the BTR V2 stg 2 might be a better fit for me as well. I'm guessing 550-575 rwhp would be doable with that cam? Either way, I very much look forward to watching your build and results/thoughts afterwards! BTW, high flow cats are a must for me at this point, my days of walking around with my clothes stinking after driving the car and listening to the ladies b!tch about the smell while driving are over. Sounds like you'll get to that point too, if you haven't already...

Long time sub and always great content!! Gentleman's Corvette, Love It!! Same here on the wife and trips, but elected to get rid of my Inferno Orange '11 Grand Sport (Nikki) and get the '22 Rapid Blue. She thoroughly enjoys the comfort of the C8 over the C6. Did a 9/11 Tunnels to Towers Run to Marathon Key a couple months ago and she enjoyed the ride. Looking forward to the new build content. Thanks for your time and efforts.

I have an 09 Z06 Jetstream blue. I have the Rpm B3 cam with thier heads. It chops hard, surges a bit under 2k and definitely shakes a bit even with it tuned by Jeremy Formato at Faster Proms. Just curious how you got the B3 cam specs because they seem so hush hush about it. Great vid

hey really excited about your build. I have a 06 z06 and will probly do the exact same thing. as far as the dash goes. here is a link to chris sullivan channel and how he addressed his dash. actually looks like its pretty easy to fix th-cam.com/video/DHXMuLoG63c/w-d-xo.html

Fellow 09 Cyber Grey Z owner, been following since the beginning. Semi similar setup with the Katech K501 cam, 102 TB, and the Fast LSXR intake, headers and catless X pipe, Corsa sports. I’ve literally been thinking about a similar refresh for the same reasons you talked about. Looking at the same cams but also had the Katech touring cam in the list of options. Little on the milder side, but good stability and stated good street manners. I just don’t want to end up with power regrets coming from the bigger cam. Looking forward to following the build and getting some feedback

High flow cats are pretty nice, there's no fuel smell after a couple minutes of warming up but the car still sounds great. Makes a pretty big difference if you're trying to use the car in the city

If the owner ever decides to sell it. Please contact me….I’d be interested 😊

Hey man, I have a C6Z and my side drain plug always drips. I've tried different plugs and I'm beginning to wonder if it's the mating surface on the pan. Have you ever had an issue with drips from either of the drain plugs?

Sure looks nice . 90% of hard working garage with all those nice tools are normally a mess .

Awesome keep the videos coming !

Nice little setup

If the deck lid open , does the light stay on?

Battery tender is the answer

Sounds like you need a battery switch. Just like the boat

Chargers that you were using is a different brand than what comes up in your description Which one do you recommend the one you’re actually using or the other one?

Hey man thanks for these videos. I just pulled my heads last night using your other video & noticed that spoiler, Looks great on that color- I'm cyber grey too.

I am having the same problem with my C7 and the mechanic wants to charge me $3k to change one lifter because he thinks the camshaft is damage but I only drove about 10 miles once there was a misfire and the car acted super weird. Is there a need for removing the camshaft to check?

@southfloridagearheads This video is very thorough and helpful. I have a Chevy Sonic 1.4 with Turbo and I replaced PCV cover 3 times now. Thank god for my father in law who’s a mechanic, doesn’t cost me as much as a dealership would charge. Now I just have to show him this video so we can finally have a more permanent fix. Thank you very much. 2 years later and this video is like gold to me right now.

I just purchased 3 of these one for my Nissan Versa. I ordered parts off of A-Premium and those parts meet or exceed OEM specifications. Will that work?

What is that turbo used for

When the oil gets into the throttle, could it be the fault of the pcv valve?

Where is south fl are you located? I was raised in Ft. Lauderdale

What a nice USNS ship 😊
