My buddy pulled of a GTO FRC while at the Detroit Auto Show to the dismay of the staff I might add. I snapped a pic because I thought I recalled some people in this forum asking about fitment on fbodies.

Here's a few pics...

*Not dial-up friendly*

The last pic is of the LS1 display model sans one FRC. A staff member thought we were trying to steal it.

They will fit from what I could tell.

Wow, that's just wrong. What good is one gonna do you? He might as well have taken both- then at least someone could use them.

SSG-
He meant he took it off for the pics, not that he stole it, see in the last line he said someone "thought" they were trying to steal it. Plus its off one of the fake motors they use for display. I did the same thing during media days, I took them both off and played with them!

Waiting for someone to shell out the cash to try.

Was that motor a plastic model? It looked like it was all one piece, maybee cuz everthing was the saame color silver. Could that be why they would not work. Just a thought

unit213

Nope, it wasn't plastic. It was all seized up and the TB and exhaust manifolds had plastic covering the openings. I don't believe it was a real motor (internally)...just a show piece.

JackZ28

OOPS! My bad man, I guess I even thought I read the whole thing. My mistake.

unit213

No problem. We took that FRC off to get a pic to post for you guys here.

Damn, I missed the show this year.

unit213: Did you guys happen to get the part number off of that thing?

YIKES!!! Those things are hidious!

I have never been much of a fan of any FRCs, but jeebus, those are nasty.

I like to see the engine, not a plastic cover. I hate this (relatively) new trend that is FRCs.

Im more interested in how you convinced them you where "not" trying to steal it. Mostly because if I was on the staff I wouldnt believe your story.

unit213

I'm pretty sure they can tell the difference between someone who makes plenty of money and a thief. This was the DETROIT auto show. Ever been to Detroit? You'd understand.

We were there Saturday 17th

Someone on the board has already gotten a pair and had them done with a different finish. I'll see if I can find the post. But they looked pretty smooth. He didn't have them on the car yet just pictures of them after they were finished. He said he'll take some pics when they get on the car.
