I would think it makes power, do you know of another bolt-on car with 327hp and 350 tw at the wheels?? Af far as i know its the highest bolt-on car with lt1 heads. Some guy with a 96 SS with the lt4's put down 330hp.

Alley Speed is the name of my little backyard hop up garage. I was one of the first to put it on a camaro , it took alot more modifications on a camaro than a trans am with a 4" hood. So i named the mod Alley Speed conversion becasue of that.

I am going to try it out...I am bidding on a whole setup from ebay. I was wondering what the different choices were for the coupling from the throttle body to the maf.
Does anyone have any really good pictures of it?

IS there anyone who can measure the box assembly from a 98-02 WS6 for me to see on my car if the ram air holes on the hood will line up to the ram air port on the box?
