Unless you are buying something with expertise, stay away, as much as you can from eBay when it comes to parts that can directly affect the performance (or failure) of your Vette.

I had a very, very nasty experience on a twin turbo Stealth. The part in question was a y pipe for the intake and seemed reputable enough. That is until it blew off and caused catastrophic damage (killed engine)

Try and stick with an actual vendor if possible, or at least make sure 100% the part numbers are correct.

On another note, I have a McCleod Twin Disk and love the fact I can street my monster and run in the 10s.
