Thanks, have been thinking about replacing mine, but didn't want to lose either, especially the steering wheel controls

Traded my 14 2LT in for a 17 ZL1 (Black)!!!!
So far it doesn't seem any faster than the 6 cylinder.
I guess you have to give it some pedal? 20mpg avg so far.
Will run with a little break in and then find out. I'm not a big believer in strict break in. A little gas here or there ain't gonna hurt a thing.

I added a support bar and smooth covers.
Have not decided what to do with bar yet. Dang the ends are very rough.

Refinished & detailed the stock SS engine cover to match my ABM with cyber grey stripes:

1) Do you have HUD and, if so, did you lose the HUD stereo displays?
2) Do you have the steering wheel buttons and, if so, we're you able to maintain them?

Thanks

I replaced my 2012 factory stereo and did lose the HUD stereo display. Not the HUD itself, but the stereo info displayed on it. I have a Scosche not a Metra kit, but I'm pretty sure the HUD info comes from the factory head unit and will be lost when replacing with an aftermarket unit. I was able to retain my steering wheel controls though.

HUH!!!!! How i s possible to go from a 14LT to 17ZL1 and say you feel no difference? More than double the horsepower there(312>650). If your content with the six banger I'll take your ZL1 off your hands! LOL!

Do i need to strip this caliper amd start all over now? And what is the best clear coat to cover them wih now?

Thats too bad but it looks like a complete do-over now. I had great success with VHT engine block paint(Canadian Tire).It has lasted me 3 years so far and still looks new.

I found out today that if you give it more throttle it does go a little quicker.

Just keep it under the 4500RPMs.

Yes, but color-matched paint for the ABM and stripes. Detail lettering was done with a brush. Thanks!
