- Does This Mod Make The Corvette OVERHEAT??
Could this simple exterior appearance mod cause the destruction of your engine?
A few weeks back, I installed this C6 ZR1 style front splitter on my C5 Corvette. And in my opinion, it looks incredible and completely changes the front end look of the Corvette. But there's one downside to installing aftermarket front splitters on the C5 Corvette. Some splitters block the airflow that's critically needed to keep the engine cool. When some install these they also remove the factory-installed air dam that sucks cool air into the engine compartment.
Today we'll dig into my C6 ZR1 style front splitter install on my C5 Corvette and talk about any issues that have accompanied it.

I just bought a 2001 C5 convertible. 6 speed. 29,583 miles. $17,000. 2 owner car that is flawless. I mean flawless.
Scotty Kilmer called, He wants his glasses back!
Love your channel brotha! I’m also from New Hampshire. If you haven’t already I highly recommend taking the Vette on a 1A cruise 😎
Picked up my 06 Convertible yesterday! lemans blue over titanium grey. Z51, chrome wheels (old school, but I'm older) and I think I may very much be in love!
Glad you've had no overheating issues. Certainly makes life so much easier.
its Parker who dm'd you on insta, it's so funny that I asked about this before you uploaded it LOL good video dude!
I got my 02 C5 corvette convertible magnetic red metalic black leather interior weeks ago and i loved i star looking c4s but thanks to yours video's I end whit a beautiful c5😄😄😄😄✌
keep up the good work!!!
Just what I wanted to know! Thanks
Good info. As a reference, my stock 2003 C5 automatic runs right at 190 F (at speeds above 35 MPH). If I get stuck in California traffic, the temp will eventually rise to 230 F. But, as soon as traffic clears, the temp quickly drops back to 190 F. Before I installed the new radiator and cleaned the condenser, the Vette ran much hotter - closer to 245 F.
Thanks for the update. I wasn’t going to buy one for my C5 until I heard if yours made your C5 overheat or not. Keep up the great work!!!!
I think if you haven't had any issues yet you'll be fine. I put in a 160 stat and had the fans programmed to come on sooner also. That made a hug difference here in Arizona. These cars are designed to run warmer then we are all use to, your temp seems right in line with how they have it from stock. 220 is nothing for these cars. I think I mentioned in your install video that I left my corner pieces off on the bottom because they don't really serve a purpose and I like the look without them. If I ever get rid of the splitter look then I'll put them back on. The center piece you have to leave on no matter what for the radiator cooling. Thanks for giving the update to any issues or lack there of.
Great video !! What dash did you use for your radio ?
I have the same exact car and front splitter. I put a 180° thermostat and the programmed my fans to come on cooler and it runs cool like im living in Alaska
If/When you get it tuned, they'll lower the fan temps and the temps will be much lower. I rarely run over 190, even in stop and go traffic.
This is a little off topic but. At the
what’s the model of that screen radio on your c5?
You need to get some longtubes for that badboy brotha
Just bought a 98 torch red c5 48k miles matching red and black interior straight piped with headers I did pay 16k for it a little high maybe but boy is it cherry
Got the vortex on my C5Z. Sure as shit my coolant jumped to 244!!!! Removing tomorrow
