Awesome close ups John, was wondering what it looked like. Does anyone know if those are the same valves being used in the C7? And are they pretty reliable? I have had issues with other manufacturers valves at 12K miles and were pricey little suckers and difficult to replace.Rocket City Florida - 2013 427 Vert - 2015 ZO6 - 2020 Stingray

daleong, you have hit on a very important point, for there were some who had C7 value failures. GM, astutely noting that through warranty claims and technician reports’, made that significant change for the C8.2023 Z06: Hypersonic Gray HTC, two tone blue interior, CCB’s, 3LZ, E60, and with every visible carbon fiber option order-able including wheels.

Heh-heh, "catastrophic converters" indeed.
Thanks for the pics Itomn, did they wonder why you were taking so many detailed shots of the exhaust system? You should have worn a Ford Engineering T-shirt or something.Last edited by Klinn; 08-16-2019, 02:48 PM.

Yes it will; perhaps strictly a muffler can and different exhaust tips replacements?2023 Z06: Hypersonic Gray HTC, two tone blue interior, CCB’s, 3LZ, E60, and with every visible carbon fiber option order-able including wheels.

That looks like a very unique muffler - I wonder if the left and right exhaust header out flows are mixed in the muffler or kept separate ? Also, the aftermarket guys are going to have their hands full with this baby. Many new and unique parts in the exhaust system, not to mention the ECU re-programming issues.

So true Binger, and while I am thinking they might buy a C8 muffler, cut it apart and see how/what they could do to increase its sound without causing secondary issues, consequently take “their” muffler and offer a bunch of different exhaust tips.
Please someone, black chrome exhaust tips in different shapes!2023 Z06: Hypersonic Gray HTC, two tone blue interior, CCB’s, 3LZ, E60, and with every visible carbon fiber option order-able including wheels.

I can’t tell if the exhaust tips are removable or welded on? Anyone know? I might replace them if that’s not hard to do.2020 C8 | Torch Red | Z51 | 3LT | Carbon | Comp Seats
