What kind f warranty do the tubular manifolds have in regards to possible fatigue and cracking? Are the turbos braced anywhere or are the manifolds taking the whole weight?

Wow. Nice! Any long term street testing in this? Any heat issues encountered under the hood or things that need shielding?

Even if spark plug changes were a big time PITA, how often is that needed? I'd put spark plug change ease WAY down on my list of things that really mattered on an F/I rig. If you had to spend 2 hours vs 15 minutes on a spark plug change...so what????

Just a thought. If you guys designed a custom engine cover vs. a customer having to cut the original, that would be sweet!
Nice looking kit though.

It would be nice to have a ZL1 bottom end. The SS is on borrowed time at that power level. The Z bottom end would just be goovin'

While my kit is now completely in house custom made, I really wish I had bought my original kit from Hellion.

I learned after the fact, they are great vendors. Should have gone that route as opposed to the crack head I bought my original kit from....

For those interested, Guys, Hellion is one of the vendors you can trust and they have been around for a long time...

Cant wait to see this kit hit the streets.... Kudo's to Hellion for putting together another great looking kit for these Camaro's...

We have a lifetime warranty to the original purchaser.

This system is the same design as our Eliminator for the Mustang, and the same stainless is used. We have no cracking issues, even with high mileage vehicles. The turbo connects straight to the header with a heavy duty V-band clamp. This Pro Mod turbo style turbo is light weight, and is very sturdy when installed on the header.
