Re: Ram Air Functional GTA Hood

That is a really interesting modification to the hood, I have never seen one like it and it looks good. I bet someone could fab up a air box similar to the Camaro style to feed the air direct to the engine...

Re: Ram Air Functional GTA Hood

I will add some pics of the car but it not done... Made a lot of Suttle mods... Mirrors, door handles, Rear spoiler, etc... I have a new asymmetrical cross between power bulge & GTA hood brewing in my mind that I want to build but I need to find a power bulge first... I'm only half way through wiring the LM7 5.3L LS & half way through the paint... Debating on whether or not Making Lambo doors for it...

But ya I'll through some pics up

Here are links to pics

Unfortunately that would be a no for me as well as that would be a hefty freight bill.

Op post this on the Canadian board, you might have better luck selling it.
