New look for the camaro

Excuse the blurriness. This camera sucks.

SS Hood (needs some adjustment still), and a nose that's the right color and has the right brackets to the the !huge gap mod











And the car as it sits now... after I got home from DE where I got the hood and nose, the tranny decided it didnt want any gears besides 1st and 3rd. Swap is now in the near future.

Thanks all

Weight difference, I'll put it this way. with the stock latch i had to slam the hell outta this hood, did that all of two times lol before i swapped in the latch the guy gave me (lighter pressure) at pauls house. Also he gave me two hood shocks that are lighter pressure than stock, well they stil flung the thing up so I took one out.

Looks real good.

Next time you take pics, make sure the ladder is steady.

thanks all again

Not going with the box for it... too much $$ for what it'd gain (minimal amount) over the SLP CAI I already have

And the wheel gap looks a lot worse there than it actually is... jackstands on k-member = higher than the tirestands the tires are on

No problem bud, glad I could help you out!

Speaking of which, what tranny do you have? Another friend is parting out a 93Z, I think that makes it a 700R4?

I think it was rebuilt, I know it has a shift kit in it and he is asking $400, he won't ship, but I can handle the delivery.
