Hey man. What's up? Take a look at this thread. I bought a ram air plate from SUX2BU back in the winter, but haven't yet installed it. It works well with Camaros through their front grille, but since you have a T/A, I believe it can work if you want to run it through your fog lights. Hope this helps.

You'll have to pm "SUX2BU", I don't know if I can give out this information since he's not a sponsor.

It's been done before. Not sure that I'd want to try it on my LS1...maybe on an import or something I didn't care about.
