Big Gulp ! ? ! ? haha.. neat idea but, here in NEFL we've been seeing so much rain lately that 12"+ deep puddles aren't uncommon... That would SURELY be a hell of a gulp slamming into it with that thing... hehe....
As for the radiator... its still getting air from under the car coming up the air damn. That spot where you see the metal is normally blocked off by all plastic anyway I thought.

Yeah.... My car is too freakin low with these Sportline springs, I don't have my air dam anymore. I need to raise my car up and put that thing on.
I have the SLP Cold Air Intake, not sure if I want to keep it or look for a Ram Air box since I have the hood..

Thinking about it more, I would think you'd need to get about a 4" extension pipe to give it enough room to go in front of the radiator and ac condenser. Still would be iffy due to the hood latch.
exactely, the ls1 lid still gets air up top. Where the corvette one weill sit a lot lower into the bumper cover and get colder air for sure, no way around it. And for my car only, there wouldnt be much to mod to get it to work where as the ls1 lid, ill have to cut everything up to get it to sit low enough to clear my hood.
dunno yet, im trying to get to the track before winter but having a hard time trying to get my car there. Manily finding a truck to pull it there. But hopefully soon!

Because it digs down deeper into the airflow under the car. Makes perfect sense if you learn to think outside the box.

My car was 3,000 with me in it, and I drove it all over the place
Unless you took out your crash bars, wich in that case I wouldnt be driving it on the street then
yea, everything is gone but thats not the reason. I did a LOT to the car and the closest track to me is 2 hours away. So if i break something its gonna cost A LOT!! to get a tow home. I drive it everywhere if im cruising it around but when i go to the trakc and go for gold, im not risking it. So trailoring it is.
