ELITE ENGINEERING Tunnel Reinforcement Plate w/ ABS, Aluminum, 1/4" Thick (1997-2013 Chevrolet Corvette)

1/4" Aluminum Tunnel Plate and "Thermal-Abs of Aluminum"
At a full 1/4" thick 6061-T6 aluminum, this plate is twice as thick as your stock OEM Tunnel Plate; Coated on all sides with a specially engineered ceramic coated and then bonded to a composite-fiberglass thermal barrier.

This is the best choice and BEST SELLER to offer both chassis stiffening and superior heat shielding to reduce the amount of heat transfer from the exhaust.

Since its release, the redesigned Tunnel Reinforcement Plate has been one of the hottest suspension mods for the C5 and C6 Corvette. Installed on both the C5R and C6R Race Corvettes, it has been proven over and over again to reduce the amount of torsional flex in the chassis. In addition, our ceramic coating adds another benefit by offering some heat shielding from your exhaust system.

The engineers at General Motors acknowledged the benefits of a stiffer more rigid Tunnel Reinforcement 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 C5 and C6 with strength and performance in mind. CAD designed and computer precision cut, our 1/4” thick (6061-T6 Aluminum) “Abs-of-Aluminum” Tunnel Reinforcement Plate is twice 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 Corvette suspension.

Other benefits include:

• Rigidly ties the right and left inner chassis rails together
• (2x) Access Holes for O2 Sensor Wires
• A must for Coupes and Convertibles!
• Direct, bolt-on replacement
• 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
• Sound deadening qualities
