Well, you will only further aggrivate the situation where people are convinced there is no difference between an LS1 and the 350 in their old Camaro, but the absence of a carburetor. It's just me, but that **** really pisses me off.

Yeah I kinda frown on 350 stuff on these cars. Not sure why, I guess just because its not really correct and like the dude above said, that leaves it open for people "yeah, its a 350 like my 78 Camaro has. Same thing"

I hear that **** all the time. Get LS1 or 5.7 FTW

I have a buddy that put the 5.7 emblem from the GTO on his Z28, and it looks pretty good.

I wouldn't do it (not my style), but I don't think there's anything wrong with it!

I am sure you can get 346 decals made. I forget where but I know there is somewhere that does the metal ones custom but they are $$$. I think 346 would look better and those of you with 402's puttin a 350 on there would be fine. That would be a suprise!

To me it just shows me the ignorance of the driver...that he doesn't even know the correct engine size in his car. Kinda like a ricer.

i knew a guy with a silver 2002 ss who had his hood and trunk pin striped and he had the "346 ci" done on his hood around the air inlet on the hood on both sides. it was pretty nicely done.
