I didn't read all 11 pages, has anyone mentioned a more functional spoiler? Looking for something which would be taller for open track, but shorter on the street.
Something like the clear race spoilers shown here:

... but which will mount easier with minimal removing body part modifications, and will look more like a factory integrated option... and the height could range from 5-10" tall, perhaps used slotted bolt holes, multiple holes, removable extension...?
Not sure how the angle of your Dick Harrell spoilers compares to the clear version above... could the height of the DH spoiler be increased from the base 5" to a range of 5-10" in steps using a lexan extension for rear visibility? On the street we could lower/remove the extension, but on the track we could set the desired extension height.

A 6LE Ram Air kit for LS1 WS6 owners would be awesome! I know we've discussed it before Mark and you don't want to disrespect Brain Green...but he stopped making it years ago and it had lots of room for improvement. The plastic used in the BGRA was terrible and becomes very brittle over time. The foam he used to seal the hood to the WS6 air box disintegrates over time as well. A molded silicone or rubber seal would have been much better.
He didn't patent it, and chose to stop making it. From my contact with him about it, it is obvious that he looks at his legacy he's left to the f-body community. Sorry...that's not how it works. We're gear heads. If we need it, or want it we'll find a way to get it. Then look for ways to make it better, faster, or stronger. It's how we're wired.
Again Mark, I have a kit minus the rain block off plate and the nostril corner pieces that were used to delete the OEM nostril grilles that I'll donate to the cause so you can get dimensions on and build templates to make an improved version using better materials and better fit/finish and not be copying. Same idea...better product. If BG doesn't like that...he needs to get over himself, be realistic instead of being selfish, and get over it.
The only thing I ask is if you bring one to market, let me have one for free or really really cheap. If you're not successful at making one...send mine back to me. If it's destroyed in the process of trying...give me one helluva deal on the clear honeycombs when you get them fixed.
At least think it over...I think there's still a sizable market for these.

A seal made of molded silicone would be much more durable.
The hood is not all the way latched shut. The opening lines up even with the opening of a ws6 airbox.
The upper right object is what you see in the middle picture. Each nostril insert is made of 2 pieces, and upper half and a lower half.

id be all over this Actually we plan to do a lexan on on McNord's car. We could easily make you a lexan one with brackets to bolt to a stock Camaro spoiler. E-mail if interested, I'd just have you get it done by our manufacturer CMJ (not cheap though, my Grand National one was $400-$500)...

Yeah I got excited that one company was making dash pads, I emailed them, no luck they won't do a 93-96 Camaro dash pad. Congrats 97+ owners, guess I will keep looking at carpet on top of my dashboard. 
So yeah 6LE you could still be the first there!

A single piece darked out tail light cover that spans from one tail light, over and across the filler panel (cover up the keyhole too), to the other tail light.
Should be an easy production with your connections.
