Well, the install actually was relatively easy. Had to make a couple minor modification to the Volant itself (grind down the front left and right edges for hood clearance and shave about a 1/4" of material on the filter side of the assembly that connects the filter and the MAF to allow the filter to slide back further and clear the hood). Here's some pics of the finished product.
When I was 16 I was savin to buy a 72 RS Camaro Then my step mom **** blocked me & told the guy not to sell it to me I still hold a grudge over that lol I give you a thumbs up for teachin your kid the right way & the volant is really what I wanted on my 95 ram air project but they said the filters were way too big to clear lol So I got the stock trans am box for the LT1 off of here Car looks sweet Youll be gettin him laid too lol Hand him a trash bag full of rubbers to lmao
I found the Hardwood Ramair Hood and it appears to be the same one,I wish you had an Ls1 lid assembly to test fit........
If the Volant fits I gotta believe a stock LS1 lid assembly would fit. That was actually our back up plan, if the volant wouldn't work I was installing it on my 99 and he was getting my lid assembly. I didn't prefer the lid on the LT1 because you have to cut away metal to get airflow up to the filter.
Mine has been cut for a few years now. I want the entire set up on there now...... it will get plenty air especially with the new ram air ducting .... if you happen to get a chance would you test fit your lid assembly onto the Lt1. I am buying a Hood come tax time and its either the Harwood or the VFN sunoco Hood.

I'll see if I can mock it up...the boy wants to paint the whole car now, so we'll see what kind of time I have.
Looks great. I got my 94Z when I was 16 (18 now). Paid for it myself and work my *** off to pay for all of the mods (see sig). Its definitley a fun car to drive to high school in. Everyone knows not to mess with it. Lol

Well I looked at mocking up the LS1 lid today, but took some measurements first and I could tell right away there no way the lid assembly fits unless you can figure out away to move the entire assembly closer to the intake by about 2 full inches. The front edge is simply too tall. The harwood appear to be stock height from about two inches in front of the scoop which is just far enough to prevent the ls1 lid from working. Sorry man.
