looks like an SLP CAI to me and a shock tower brace. but rusted for some reason. to fix that sand it and get it coated. but make sure all the rust is off or else itll bubble. and either a 52 or 58mm TB. oh and airhorns and a granitelli MAF

I see emissions and ASR, Ewww

I think all the visible external mods are listed heh

Sand the STB down, hit it with some brake cleaner, quickly (after dry) prime it and then paint it whatever color you want.

First pic, DIRECTLY to the right of the MAF plug and right below the throttle bracket? Maybe it's the only LT1 with a 9th injector! Ala '88 and earlier TPI

The clip that is similar to the injector clips is for the air pump.

Nope, that is def an injector clip as they are pretty unique and colored. To the original poster are you sure one of your injectors is not unplugged? As you really down on power? That purple plug they are talking about should be plugged into your #1 injector, check to see if it is unplugged and let us know.
