BTW, if you try and scam the insurance company, they will know (assuming your car was in a flood.)

Follow the advise of the others. And next time (if there is a next time) install the bypass valve on the intake.

hey all just an update but first thanks for the great advise.
no water damage. this is because i was going only at idel speed so the water had no chance of going up the intake to the motor. the insurance guy was the best didnt even say anything about the intake. the car shut off because the lack of air? this is what honda said. but so it cost me an oil change and plugs. now it looks like off to the corvette dealer for a new Z06. sorry to have to let her go but cant trust the promise of it will be fine just drive it.

If you post that info here, then I think you should definitely disclose the info in writing to the dealer at trade in. You should probably even get it notorized or something, so that the dealer doesn't deny it if they get sued for not disclosing it.

Time to thin the herd, methinks . . .
