Bruh, your neighbor is Ballin out
Flexing hard for the vid 🤣 doors up and all
Hahaha 🤣 yeah man he’s a car dealer so he gets to enjoy some really nice cars 👌🏼
LTH’s sound so good on that car! Makes me miss my old zl1
They sure do!!
Good to see you back man. Can't wait to see what it runs!
Thanks!
Way to go bro. Can't wait to see how it does on the track.
first! cant wait to see what this car does at the track with headers. if u can run 9s with simple intake, e50, headers and tune/trans tune man. pray performance is on a whole other level.
Thanks! And you already know! That’s going to be the goal!
@@JLSpeed I need me some 2” speed engineering longtubes with x pipe 😼
You got your ZL1Camaro looking sharp George. I think with your new tune, headers and drag pack, 9 is going to be your new best. 👍👍👍
Thanks! That’s the goal!!! 💪🏽
Good stuff for sure Jorge
Thanks!
Yessir been waiting on this
Actually glad I jus purchased the 17/8 inch lol. Quik question did you purchase the 02 sensor extension? And if you purchased better gaskets and bolts what kind? Thanks again my friend
Man so unlucky, at least the car runs great now btw love the car🤝💯
Yeah I know lmao but it’s back 100%
Gorge I pit spend engineered x pipe and headers but men when I combine that borla atack npp carbon fiber omg in another lvl.
I bet! Thats why i kept the stock factory mufflers on mine hahaha
That's awesome!! I've been waiting for this video and can't wait until you run it at the track. I think that you'll get a 9 second pass.
Those headers look huge, but it looks like they are well designed and like you still have plenty of room around your spark plug boots and wires.
The car sounds good in both race and stealth mode.
Thanks! And yes the headers fit perfect! No issues at all with rubbing on anything and even hitting steering shaft or having issues with the plugs!
Dont sweat it , chevies exhaust bolts are notorious for breaking. They locktite them in and they are small. I dont know about access on the camaro but on the trucks i just weld a nut to the broken bolt.
Yeah they are! I didnt have the right tools for that so had to take it to Excessive to get it done properly
Awesome…I wonder how the power gains compare to a catless setup with mid pipe on the stock cast manifolds. Nothing beats the sound and performance of headers though.
Probably 10-15hp but not really sure the. Stock cast manifolds become the new restriction
W vid 🔥
I went with bmr motor mounts
Just got my kooks long tubes for my 19 SS today! Your car runs super hard, just saw what Pray posted on his Facebook page today congrats 💪🏻. Question though, I just got tuned by Pray as well. On average how longs it take for you to get revisions from him after you send data logs? I’ve been waiting a while for a revision from him
It can take anywhere between 2-4 weeks depending on what he has going on and any personal stuff he might have going in with his family. But the great thing is you really only need that one revision for the car to be dialed in. No need to go back and forth getting tons of revisions to get the car running hard. The ZL1 is on just 3 revisions so far he gets it right the first time lol
Awesome, thanks for giving me some peace of mind lol. Just wanted to get the car dialed in and get a good couple runs in before I put it away for winter. Sadly Chicago winters aren’t RWD friendly but it’ll give me an excuse to do some ported heads and a cam 😂
nice bro!!! did you use the speed engineering clamps or did you order more?
Just used the speed engineering clamps
@@JLSpeed thanks
I went with the 2" on my ss. I had to wrap some of the wires with heat tape and then put heat boots over that because the 2" have very little clearance for the wires. Havent had any problems since. The first set got burnt.
Did you wrap the headers as well ?
@@Nightfall.2ss no with the 2" you don't have much clearance with the extra thickness of the wrap they might not fit
@@slickrickdarula9483 I got 1 7/8 headers would you recommend wrapping I’m trying to debate if I should
@@Nightfall.2ss I would just research it. But my personal opinion i don't think its necessary
@@slickrickdarula9483 alright yes I’ve done research and it’s 50/50 and I just wanted an opinion from someone who hasn’t wrapped them thank you so much appreciate you replying
Are you going to get the FIC 30% injectors and big bore fuel pump so you can run full ethanol? I been watching Brett’s post on CZcams and he suggested those two mods are a must due to the LT4’s love ethanol
Yeah that is the end goal! I wont be doing the injectors and big bore until i swap in the ported blower.
@@JLSpeed is there really a big gain in porting the blower? You gonna send it to Brett to port or somewhere else?
@@SVGZ06 yes a ported blower will be pretty good gains. Amd Brett will recommend jokers full tilt port
Are you going to go with nitrous like you did on the other car, just wondering??
Not sure I wanted to, but I don’t plan to keep it very long with the C8Z coming in a year lol
Bruh maybe you can help me I got zl1 2020. Do you know why the valves are open only when the car is off even if is in touring mode. when the car is on the valve closes
My pass mount started to sag and the primary hits the frame rail at times
Damn, the car only has 6500 miles so hopefully that isn’t going to be an issue lol
Going off the title, im going to say the headers caused it to feel like the TQ all dropped off it ,lol..happened on my big viper with a blower, I put long tubes on ,and the truck felt like it lost 100 hp, 😂😂😂😂
No it wasn’t performance related it was user install error lmao 😂
Would you recommend wrapping headers ?
Ive heard good things wrapping them also just have to do it right and runs errand that once they heat up you aren’t taking that wrap off lol.
I did ARH long tubes and full exhaust on my zl1 on my garage floor and it was horrible.
1/10 stars would not recommend lol.
Yeah man it’s not too bad and I would have been done in 6 hours if it wasn’t for that last bolt 😓
@@JLSpeed took me about a week working alittle every night, drive side was cake but the PITA was that passenger side. Tried getting it in without pulling the engine mount then gave up and pulled it, didn’t have to do anything with the starter tho.
Good content tho man, keep it up. 👍🏻
Been waiting months for my xpipe to come in😭 Just waiting on that to install the headers
I ordered my stuff back in March and had it in the garage waiting since end of may 😅
@@JLSpeed at least you had yours😭 I got thr headers sitting on my floor just waiting
@@6.2LT4 recommend getting them ceramic coated while you wait
@@JLSpeed for the heat they give off i assume? I’ve heard about header wrap or something along that line
@@6.2LT4 yes for heat reduction
What happened to your weld wheels?
They are in the garage lol
@jlspeed did you buy the plug wires or 02 sensor extenders from Speed Engineering when you bought the headers and x-pipe??
Both plug wires and o2 extenders
@@JLSpeed Did you go 10" or 12" plug wires if you remember?
@@horsepowerpatriots5222 10”
@JLSpeed thanks 🤙🏽
How do you turn off engine light after the header install can’t find a answer anywhere. I have HP tuners
you have to turn off mil and error reporting for any rear o2 sensor check engine codes so o2 sensor 2 stuff
So what’s the actual acceleration difference vs stock ?? These cars are insane stock . You get little more boost but what’s 0-60 , 1/4 mile time difference???
It will be worth a couple mph and .2-.3 tenths in a 1/4 mile with proper tuning.
What spark plug wires from speed engineering did you get 10” or 12”? For the zl1
10”
@@JLSpeed sucks I just tried to order a set but they don’t ship to Canada!
@@davecarpenter9548 wow damn!
@@JLSpeed what gap on upgraded plugs?
@@davecarpenter9548 .028
I had texas speed headers on my old 17 ss. They ended up frying my starter. That heat shield is useless. Ceramic coating or wrapping the headers is a must on the 6 gens. Poor location for the starter.
I guess i just didn’t put enough miles on my car, but i never had any issues with the starter with the heat shield back on after header install
@@JLSpeed because you got yours ceramic coated. That really helps keep the heat down.
@@thefitnesslife4988 on my SS i did the have them ceramic coated and didn’t have any issues.
How much was it to replace ur starter?
I'm still looking for a house lol . I think last time I talked about it was 5 months ago. Man this market so stupid
It sure is! My recommendation is to wait it out till sometime next year man.
Hello, not sure if someone has already asked this question or you've answered but did you get your long tubes ceramic coated? Or do you think it will be fine with just the raw stainless steel?
Hey man, on the Zl1 i did get the headers ceramic coated. I figured less heat would help with engine bay temps and supercharger temps.
@@JLSpeed
Ok, I appreciate your response. Every bit of info helps.
I have a 2023 10 speed SS and going to install Kooks 1-7/8 inch long tubes. I was leaning towards leaving them raw steel with no coating. Was just wondering if you noticed any heat issues when you had uncoated headers on your SS? Do you think it will be fine without the ceramic coating?
I never had issues with heat, just make sure on the passenger side that the wire harness is not on the side of the frame rail and moved up to the top of it to have it away from the header.@@johnnyhernandez3729
@@JLSpeed Thank you 🙏
Do you have a xpipe or anything
yes it has the speed engineering x pipe mid section
No mid xpipe?
Yes mid x pipe was installed
@@JLSpeed are you still currently running this setup?
@@donnieb1991 I don’t have the car anymore but it’s still running that set up but with corsa axle back I believe
I want a ZL1 so bad!
They are so worth it!!!
No you don't !!!!!! A mech piece of crap
Catted or catless headers? Are the secondary cats deleted?
Catless and no secondary cats as mid section is also replaced
sounds like a dump truck
Do something cool
