In fact does anyone know or can confirm if I get headers and back exhaust replaced for weight savings (No cats, or mufflers) will I be able to run the full exhaust system without having to tune the car? Any recommendations for exhaust systems on the Z28?

I put together a very amateur video of the NASA event at Fontana Auto Club Speedway. I was not able to get video of the car. I needed a chase car.

What is the latest on your beautiful Z?

The Z28 will be going under the knife this week. Will be working with Anderson Composites for full carbon fiber conversion. Dry carbon hood, roof and trunk as well as carbon fiber fenders, doors. Optic Armor front and rear windshield. FERRADA wheels in bronze. The car is conirm3d for SEMA and also a editorial coverage and photo shoot with Chevy High Performance Magazine at the end of the month. I'll put up some pics of the progress. Hoping to cut another 200 lbs.

What are the plans for the rear glass?

Outstanding. I like when parts drop in without much fuss.
.
Will your OEM rear glass be for sale? I would imagine someone would buy it as a spare.

I am actually swapping in the Anderson Composites Dry Carbon Fiber Roof and I was told the rear glass can't be reused.

HG Motorsports stripping the fusionofideas #Z28 #camaro down to the bone in preparation for the @andersoncomposites carbon surgery full body carbon conversion. All the glass has been pulled and ready for Lexan.

Your Z is going to look amazing when done. Was Anderson able to give you an idea as to the weight savings?
