You need to find a local fabricator that will work on a vette. Go to the drag racing section and ask for some suggestions/references for fabricators in your area. Be sure to have a moving bar installed to allow you to get in and out of your car easier. I traveled to New Jersey to have mine done right (4-5 hour drive).

Thanks for posting. That is one sweet and FAST ride!! I remember my dad taking me to the drags in KC when I was a kid, saw the little red wagon with a hemi in the bed do a wheelie all the way down the 1/4, been hooked ever since. How long have you been wrenching on that car? It takes some serious effort to get to where you are now. Post more when you go again, I could watch those all night long. Can you post a little more info on your motor? ie throttle body (never saw one like that), cam specs, how you went about adapting the LT1 intake.

IS that the only type that well qualify at the drag strip? I thought i could get away with the hatch section only type.
