EDIT: writeup here http://joelrdevriendt.com/?p=46

sheet metal wasnt my thing, i think this looks nicer excuse the filthy engine bay

 

OMG spill some details on how the impossible was done.
Did you mill down the radiator support or alter the hood?

 

that's a clean install,good job! write up?

 

i did the lid install the same way everyone else has done it, then just modified the LS1 radiator support to fit it. I had to trim a LOT of plastic off it. There is probably only 50% of it left lol. My idea was to just set the lid down inside the shroud instead of on top of it and this is what i got. the support is set back a few inches from where it would normally be, i used self tapping screws to secure it. Its VERY solid, i couldnt be happier with it.

I have more pictures i can post if people want, but im headed out the door right now.

 

I predict this thread will explode with hits.
Can you take some additional pics of it with the lid off.

 

looks like it was ment to be that way

 

more pic's would be appreciated.thanks

 

I will take it back apart and get some detailed pictures tomorrow.

Im gonna say right now though it was a lot of work, but alot of it was trial and error. I spent way more time on the radiator support than i did fabricating the lid.

 

Looks great, first time it makes we want to have a lid setup

 

looks clean, congrats.

 

awaiting pics

 

Did you see any difference in power/throttle response? I mean seat of the pants feeling?

 

that looks very, very nice...awesome job on that thing.

 

Looks factory! I must do this! You should do a write up and have it stickied! Great job!

 

Looks clean like i mention in the other forum

 

Since there is not any front air inlet like on a normal LS1; I assume it is pretty much open on the underside to let air in?

 

looks clean, thats the way they should have done the lt1

 

I want to see pics damnit right meow, dammit.....jk lol that looks mint man, great job

 

Looks great

 

good job Joel.

I can tell all you guys that this looks as good as the pictures show. He is very meticulous with his work!
