modified to fit our 3rg gen cars???

STS has a kit for the LT1 Camaro and another for the LS1 Camaro. Do you think that with a fab shop, the STS LT1 kit could be made to fit our cars?

they are currently working on a thirdgen prototype.. several people have already volunteered.


i have a house in orem UT, its 3 miles away from STS, pretty nice guys. from what i saw, kit should be done in a month to 2 months.




the kit is basically the same, the only difference is the tube to the intake manifold, which is what they are working on

Yea, I figured if you got the kit for the LS1 and LT1 cars, it should be routine to route/bend pipes a bit different to fit our 3rd gen cars. Then you open up a new marketing area.

The entire system would be fairly easy to build. I would recommend that route instead of modidying an existing kit. But if they are working on a direct fit kit, then they already have your solution.

FWIW, I have a Z24 with a home-brew remote mount turbo system and it works very well. I'm anxious to see some results on third-gen f-bodies!
