They are pte 6265's I was told with the small turbonetics covers. With the ttix kit on the c5 the pte covers won't fit. Center section looks like my dbb pte unit I had also.

Very nice, why bother with re-building the LS1 tho? Aluminum block limits what you can really do with them, to be honest I'm kinda shocked you are shooting for 800whp on a stock block LS1. Unless it's not a stock block?

A mildly worked over LQ4/LQ9 would be quite fitting for this IMO.

Either way, bad ass car man!
