I believe that y2khawk (Matt Harlan) has done this. He custom fabbed it himself though.

I do

It's a bit on the excessive side for most applications though. I'll have to round up a good picture to show the location. Mine actaully infront of the radiator, unlike most FMIC's that are in the bumper area

Are you thinking front mount like a Supra or other import?? If so that would take quite a bit of work, but would be badass!!

All of you guys have heard of the car before. Here are some hints:

It's black.
It is an LS1.
It is Twin Turbo'd.
It made 602rwhp/706ft.lb.@5,200rpm last dyno.
It could. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

Do I get the full mark? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />
