LT1 Dick Harrel??? I have seen a lot of guys with ls1's that have the sunoco hood and DH spoiler but never on an LT1 car. I am in the middle of getting everything ready to do a six speed swap and thought I might go ahead and put a hood, and spoiler on while it's out of commission for a while. My car is teal with tt2's on it. I was thinking of the SS hood, and the spoiler from the Dick Harrel car, but was unsure of the look. I'm not trying to be an SS poser but the fact of the matter is, is that the ss hood looks good. Any suggestions or pics would be much appreciated. Thanks.

. Sad fact is, nobody really gets to see how sick it looks when its coming at you at a buck 30 because we are usually doing the pulling I got my spoiler through SLP..don't remember the name of the place where I got the hood. I got them for dirt cheap at the time a couple years ago. I think it looks fu**ing sick
The one thing I did notice with my aftermarket hood was the ram air itself was more wide then tall unlike the Orig. SS Hood...but I shedded over 15-20lbs with the fiberglass Last edited by Elliott's94Z; 10-28-2008 at 02:10 AM.

eh i dunno about the ss hood, i have thought about it but it seems like thats what everyone has so i was thinkin about orderin the vfn cowl hood. I saw a black 96 camaro with the ss spoiler and the vfn hood and it looked really good so i think im gonna go that route.

Yea I kind of feel the same way about the SS hood but it does look good. What do you guys think about the spoiler with an ultra z hood or the sunoco on an LT1. Also, does anyone know if the 5" RKSPORT spoiler is what's on the Dick Harrel or is it another name brand? I've done a search and found some links to buy, but never a brand. Just trying to get some idea's I may not have thought about. No matter how you look at you'll never have something that someone else doesn't already, but I just don't want what everyone else is getting. I bought my TT2's because in the 23 years I've lived in Arkansas I've never seen a set on an F-body. Now that I've got them there are two T/A's in my town that have them.

Yea, never fails
. Does any one have an opinion on the ultra z or the sunoco for the lt1? I have done a search for both. The sunoco doesn't seem to follow the body lines, and the cowl is too steep from a side angle compared to the front bumper. To be honest I really can't find anything on the ultra z except for the LS1's. Is there a reason for that? I know SLP offers them on the LT1. I am kind of on the fence with the Ultra Z, but it does offer a ram air set up, and you know that's good for like 60 hp. Hahaha! My car is the factory teal and nobody really seems to have any pics of these cars with aftermarket.....anything really.

Yea stock performance sucks, stock looks = sleeper! haha especially for an LT1
most people who know anything about F-bodies see an LT1 and just laugh especially if it looks stock and sounds stock, that will be there worst downfall.
my buddy has a 2000 SLP Firehawk one of like 800 and it looks like a friggin prize winning car its immaculate, but my friend knows where he stands when we both put our right foots to the floor he stands right behind me from the start all the way up to about 110-115 and he paid 24,000 for his car!
