Each month we will
feature a new product !
Improve the ride and
performance of your
C6 Corvette!
Since its release, the
redesigned Tunnel
Reinforcement Plate has
been one of the hottest
suspension mods for the
C5 Corvette. It has been
proven over and over
again to reduce the
amount of torsional flex
in the chassis.
The engineers at General
Motors acknowledged the
benefits of a stiffer
more rigid tunnel plate
and improved their
original design and
incorporated something
similar into the new C6.
We have taken their
design one step further!
We have re-engineered
the undercarriage tunnel
plate on the C6 with
strength and performance
in mind. CAD designed
and computer precision
cut 6061-T6 Aluminum,
our 1/4” thick
“Abs-of-Aluminum” Tunnel
Reinforcement Plate is
two times the thickness
of the stock
OEM plate. The benefits
of this added thickness
is a much more rigid and
stiffer tunnel plate.
Therefore reducing
the amount of flex in
the chassis and
improving the overall
functionality of the C6
suspension.
Below is a picture
comparing the stock OEM
C6 tunnel plate to our
1/4” thick version.
Featured in both
Corvette Fever
and
SPEED, STYLE, & SOUND

If you feel our 1/4"
thick plate is not
enough, we also offer a
3/8" thick version. In
addition to improved
stiffening,
our plate is also
offered with a Ceramic
Coating to reduce the
amount of
heat transfer
from the exhaust into
the interior console.
Although the
C6
does not experience the
same amount of heat
transfer as the
C5,
some
heat
is
still present.
Other benefits
include:
•
Rigidly ties the right
and left inner chassis
rails together
•
A must for Coupes and
Convertibles!
•
Direct, bolt in place
replacement
•
Machined C6 insignia
•
Greater sense of control
behind the wheel when
cornering
•
Reduced squeaks, creaks
and noises while driving
•
Significantly decreases
the
heat
transferred to the
interior console
