    I love this channel !
    It's nice to see a RUclips channel creator that's informative, has epic cars & not an arrogant millionaire or billionaire with a garage full of supercars that all look the same.
    Your Z06 is sick ! !

    Your videos are inspiring Chris. I have a Z and Boss, but have had an 85 stepside since 87. You and Hammers garage have finally encouraged me to get it "healthy", once again. Suspension started, and having a blast. Cheers from Canada, love your attitude fella :⁠-⁠)

    My brother had the same EVAP code on his Z06, told him to check gas cap and all of that. Replaced the cap and rear evap canister. Neither of those fixed it and it still smelled like gas fumes. Looked at the front EVAP vent solenoid thats on the motor and it looked fine but we took of the engine cover anyway and realized the plug had managed to wiggle itself slightly loose. We made sure the plug was snug and the code went away on the first drive lol.

    I love that you put the "Hybrid" tag on that! Now that I think about it, I had to replace the gas cap on my '10 GS. I got the cap message and had an issue with evap if memory serves... I'm old so, it might not! lol

    I have to say man... with how often you refine the paint on your rigs, and end up NEEEDING to lift another project and can't because your lift is already used or whatever... You should look into a set of Quickjax... I bought some cause I cant put a lift in where I am at now... BUT MAN!!! They are SUPER helpful especially with lower cars when doing buffing or paint refinement!! Most of the Quickjax lift 2 feet//24" or more... and they store easily out of the way, have quick disconnects and do not leak fluid... and they work pretty great! *** Also great videos... your content is solid!

      On my c6, I got about 1/2 inch of space, and can slide them under my car without ramps(quickjax are only 3" in collapsed height)... Even with similar ground kit on... but I am not quite as low as you are.

    2 questions: what jack point are you hitting in the front? What are those wheels? They're sick. I have Ace Alloy AFF06s are I had fitment issues. Had to dremel my rear brake calipers a tiny bit to avoid rubbing there, and I had to trim the wheel well on my quarter panels (would have been rolling them if they were metal, but obviously can't do that on fiberglass) and I also get some rubbing on the front wheel well liner, but yours look like a perfect fit, plus I love that deep dish!
