Very awesome. I have plans to do this myself one day to my car. I actually almost found an LS1 donor car the other day, but it was already sold when I called the guy (I wasn't surprised since it was a STEAL).

I am running a stock flat Hood with with Charcoal racing stripes. My goal when building the car was to keep the car in stock RS Trim, with exception to the wheels and brakes to those who notice them. I have thought about the SS hood with the single stripe down the center that comes to a piont on each side but for now i am content with the way it is.

Thanks Guys, I will am working on the Finished Pics and will post them as soon as I can. The battery is no longer in the Engine Bay so the red wire you see is gone now, Hoods back on. I ran into a radiator problem coming home from the track so have to put the new one in along the SLP line lock and 02 Master Cylinder for the brakes.

I dont think i have any pics right now, i'll see what i can do for you tomorrow but it will be later in the evening. I have an appointment to get the car tuned which will take up a majority of the day. i had to cut and turn several of the angles which were off to make it work and even still hangs to low and has crappy clearance. Even had to add pipe in one section because it was to short under the torque arm area. Definately have to cut the Spohn crossmember, no way around that. I will be notching my frame and having one custom made this winter but fo rnow it works.
