It's not a direct copy. I built it myself.

This is the real mecham spoiler on #100

So... painting the ls3. Cam is underway as are springs pushrods etc. Soon I'll button this thing up. Paint the t56 and swap the ls1 for this.

All bolts are zinc plated yellow (gold) it's hopefully going to look sweet in the black gold scheme

Love the wheels and nearly everything else. However, I hate the spoiler. Real or custom made, I dislike that design and everything about it.

I did buy a cam. GPI NFC SS4. Hope it gets here soon so I can button up this thing. I may add a trans cooler too. This thing gets hot going all out on the autobahm.

It should sounds pretty awesome with the 1-7/8 into 3 inch into 3.5 to 4 inch with spintech muffler. It's already loud with the ls1 and torquer v2 cam.

I think this would look pretty ok under the hood.
