ya i though summit was suppose to be cheaper. the only benefit for me is i always get my package the next day from them. But you gotta support our sponsors.

Do you know when you will get some in?

Dam i'd be all over this as I already have a cowl hood. Just need to see fitment in the back near the windshield cowl. I'd do some minor trimming if needed. Cant wait to see some solid realworld data.

how much better will decide if i get one or get a hopefully cheaper ls6 from someone

Guys, check out the picture I posted above of the Sunoco Camaro Tribute Car from 2003 that GM put together. That's at least some what of an idea of how much extra clearance you can get by cutting the cowl area.

summit's marketing is what makes most people think they are the cheapest...

being in the business, i know that is very much NOT the case.

I agree 100%, I bought a set of AR205 series wheels last year for the 48 and ended up saving almost $500 by checking around, the wheels I got where brand new and where even custom built by American Racing. I even got free lugnuts and valve stems in the deal. Summit does have some good deals but not always. Keep an eye on Ebay also, I have purchased some summit stuff off of ebay for less than on there websight with even lower shipping costs.
