Beta rule

Full vehicle parts categories are planned, but not part of the current beta build. Hotspots should stay active and jump to the vehicle render/build section instead of opening unfinished category lookup.

Planned Features

•VIN and RPO decoder references with model-year constraints

•Block/head casting donor lookup with source citations

•Compatibility rows for intakes, accessory drives, flywheels, rear-main-seal and balance changes

•Fit classifications: direct bolt-on, modification required, incompatible, unverified

planningNow / Beta

Chevrolet Catalog 2.0 — Verified HP Build Recipes

Create street, weekend performance, and race-oriented build recipes linked to the 14 existing Chevrolet engine profiles.
