    Oil Consumption

    Having raced dry sump power plants for years, I feel that a dry sump tank has no need to be full to capacity- interesting things happen with a full tank just as they do with a low tank..that is just anecdotal evidence, but I keep my Z51 at the half mark (9 litres at oil change-instead of 9.3)...

    Unbelievable Lease offers on 2015 C7's

    Having spent a lifetime on the race track I know that the only way to compare 2 cars is on the same day on the same track- Individual performance vids mean nothing to me...just sayin

    Unbelievable Lease offers on 2015 C7's

    Performance figures do not seem to give an advantage to the 8 sp. Seems it was a way to gain on the CAFE rules for GM..I could be wrong. but more speeds do not equate to more speed...

    Unbelievable Lease offers on 2015 C7's

    Does this mean that my 2014 Z51 conv' sitting under the car cover till spring has not depreciated? With the cost increase by GM it should be still worth the 72,000.00 all in price that I paid last June---lol

    Z51 Oil Catch Can

    I hope everyone got the answer from some very good posts here. Direct injection poses some problems prior methods of fuel injection did not encounter. The catch can certainly won't hurt- It's like chicken soup..lol. They are not used at spring mountain, but the maintenance on those C7's is much...

    Z51 Oil Catch Can

    I have installed it, but have not got to second oil change to check (been under cover all winter) It can't hurt and does not look out of place under the hood...
