Damn man, what body kit is that? I actually like it! I wonder if they have an LT1 version. Also did you try adjusting the pin thingies under the hood in the front? that should help some of the fitment issues.

Yeah all the adjustments have been made front and rear.

Its from RK Sport. They have one for the LT1 but its a little different. Thanks.

The fitment looks fine..nothing to nit pick at if you ask me. The RK Sport ground effects to me is the most tasteful kit there is out there for the Camaro. Very clean and subtle.

That looks awesome. This might sound wierd but could you get a few pics of what the hood looks like from inside the car if you can actually see it?

Thanks! Yes the hood is functional. Its more direct than the SS hood. I really like it.

not a wierd question at all. i love the way it looks from the drivers seat. you can see just enough to remind you what everyone is seeing, but not so much that it get in the way. I'll also get some pics of the underside back of the scoop, so you can see the functionality....someone asked about that i think.

Love the new pics you posted. The one thing that gets me about it, is that it makes it look even more than a catfish than stock lol. But dont get me wrong, I really love that hood. I might consider getting one for mine, either that hood or SS. I just cant decide.....

hp diff.....eh probably just a couple. I have the SLP CAI, but I have both tranny coolers in front of it, kinda blocking it. So this is much better flow. Although it wouldn't show on a dyno.

On the freeway, in lock-up it does respond slightly quicker. Nothing significant though.
