Default Burkhart Bumper Support

Anyone have pics of the Burkhart bumper support for a LT1. They claim they have only tried it on a Camaro. I did not see a reason why it wont fit my Trans AM.

Thanks.

I was planning on using the Burkhart one to hold a huge air to water intercooler.
I thought it would be a great place to put it on a street car.

Sorry guys,

So after getting it. The Support made for the LT1 Camaro will not fit the Trans am or the Firebird front nose.

Burkhart was kind enough to let me return it. I bought from him pieces to make my own. I also got a custom fabbed intercooler tank with a Rule pump.

I will shoot some pics when I get it made with my Air to water intercooler and heat exchanger installed in it.

Getting ready to start the whole build so I will start a post when I get started.
