sharp setup. but has anyone just removed the front bumper and kept the foam behind it and just a brace behind it to hold it in place? that's an idea i'm going to work on when the time comes to put the body panels back on.

I am working on a price for you guys... I will not be able to sell them on the board until I become a sponsor on the forum. So out of respect to the current sponsors if you guys have any general questions please post them. Soon as I have more info I will let you guys know.

As for now I have only done this on a camaro so I don’t have a setup for the firebird cars YET.

As part of this setup I think I will also be including the parts needed to make the center of the radiator support removable.

Thanks for everyone’s impute and compliments on this idea and I hope to have a price for everyone real soon.

Yea, its a Alston mid plate and then I added material to it and put a few breaks (bends) in it so that it fit in the car..

Here's my thoughts:
-Bowman, you removed a lot of **** under there first off.
-With that, you also opened up the front end to recieve a lot of air flow, cooling engine/intercooler seems much more feasible with your setup.
-I will venture to say that even with the towhook/strapping points, and thicker bars, you still saved weight, maybe only 5lbs, but with the other advantages, thats more than worth it.

And this is a Hawaii guy thats interested. Might be able to locate a pair of turbos a little easier with the room to manuever being opened up like that

Yep, after looking some more, I definately think it would easily accept a nice FMIC with direct airflow from the two factory snorkels, as well, as possibly a shorter radiator pushed farther forward, run pretty much any FI kit out and keep the stock fans, more than worth it!

Possibly add one small brace to the outside corners? I can see those would be a PITA to pop back out if it pushed in.

Hey this is Kev. Definately interested in this for the race version of our Police car. The space opened up is phenominal and the rad support opening itself is worth the efforts. When you decide on a price for this, PM me with details.

Thanks,

Kev
