Call Carolina Auto Masters in NC. Not sure about them anymore since they were obliterated on the internet after an employee demolished a customer's car, but they were pretty big into the LT1 scene a few years ago.

When I was stationed in NC they were doing a lot of work on LT1s, they were one of the few that had the shop space. Tick Performance probably picked up a few of their customers.

It looks fairly clean, I haven't seen a TNT nitrous kit in a few years. Wasn't MORE Performance a pretty big one in that part of the country? They had that black T-trim Trans Am that was in GM High tech.
