It was an intake, cam, and header car that saw very high coolant temps, severe timing retard, and lost power.
To each his own though. I'd venture to say there are more people running their cars in stock configuration than those running modded cooling and oil systems. If someone is comfortable running that way then so be it. I'll tell you this though. The C7R is not running a factory cooler. The Z28 added numerous improvements for cooling and lubrication as well. Seems GM was on to something...

"Running in stock configuration" you might also add to the list, running stock period, per those 24 hour endurance tests I hate to say.
I'm thinking of some guys who are road course junkies, but running zero mods, and zero heating issues(engine).
The ones with actual issues(failures), are modified by definition, tune, headers, and especially too big of a cam.
IMHO, the term "
supporting mods" begins to make more sense now.
You mod, you sure as well must compliment it with a supporting mod, hence the word "supporting".
All ears for someone to refute my theory.
Speaking of supporting mods that look tits, Cdb95z28, that belly pan of yours is awesome!
