c/f close out panels, everybody with c/f valve covers need something more for underhood to tie it all together.

Eventually we will create a vote for your favorite concept area as well as allowing viewers to put up their own ideas and photos of their cars featuring our products.
For anybody in Southern Cali, I will be posting a list of cars that we need to use as "fit models" as it were, to test fit products that are in development. In return you will get free stuff!

Great site and great looking parts Matt. The hood without the stock frame and cowl induction bits would be great for those of us running fuel injection and looking for some additional hood clearance. Would that be an option?

Do you have a good estimate on delivery time yet?

Thanks

Suggestions
 
Thanks for the quick feedback! Yeah, we are working on close out panels to go along with the fender braces we are designing. I want everything to have a homogeneous look, so that if used together they look like they aren't working against each other from an aesthetic standpoint as well as for fitment. Instead of a flat panel like you see with aluminum, we are designing a more organic form, which a molded part allows us to do. The cf valve covers look great and I think we can come up with something that really compliments the hi tech look while beign functional. If you look at a first gen Firebird with a 400, they have the filler panels ahead of the core support that forces air to go through the radiator making it more efficient. A tight close off panel in that area would do the same thing while cleaning up the appearance.
We are also planning on a super lightweight hood with no separate understructure that will allow more clearance under the hood. I don't want to sacrifice structural rigidity though, so we are doing some re-engineering of the bottom surface in that respect. The key is that the finished hood is still stiff, but as lightweight as possible.

Best, MaTT

shipping
 
James,

I checked out your One Lap Camaro site. Very nice car and well designed site. I like the fact that you are using a 427 LSX. I'm thinking about the same thing for our 69. I know you can go with a larger displacement, but there is just something magical about the number 427!
To answer your question, we can probably ship this week! I will have to get pricing on any shipment outside the continental U.S.

Hey Matt. I just checked out your website, you have some killer parts. Id like to offer my 67 camaro for any test fitment. :D
I also think a trunk and stock looking rear wing as they are 67-69, and that part of the car didn't change for 69. The quality looks killer, and you will have a ton of customers.

Great parts!

I would also like to see a cowl panel with wiper hole deletes to smooth out the look. I don't use wipers LOL. ;)

Smooth look
 
Wiper delete on the cowl panel is an interesting idea. I'll get right on it. When we do the second gen hood we won't have the grill for the cowl air intake. The air will have to come from the back of the hood. This will make for a smooth hood much like the existing cowl induction hoods for second gens that you see. Wait until you see the first gen rear spoiler we are making? pictures to come soon.

I can't wait to see that.
