I think these new direct injection engines are cool. Remember talking to Mark at an event about these engines. He was telling me how their was an entire floor at GM designated to writing tune on these engines. He thought the aftermarket was going to have problems installing cams, etc., and getting them to run properly. I guess time will tell.

Its a good thing in stock form they are the cats meow, as always, very cool build.

I have heard the same thing. But it doesn't take long for the aftermarket to catch up. I bet it will be longer then usual due to the success and huge following the LS engine has. There is really nothing for these engines and they have been out for a few years already.

Our prototype rear spoiler should be here today to get installed on the trunk lid. We made the prototype in Billet aluminum to see about making some production units in carbon fiber. We hogged out ever area we could to make it as light as possible. It has the same bolt hole pattern as the stock production spoilers. Should be a cool piece. We are also going to make a bolt on flap to increase down force like the z28.

Put me on the waiting list if you do mass produce the lid spoiler in CF along with the wicker bill wing.

Rodger, out of curiosity, do you guys have anything planned for the supercharger lid as a means of removing or covering up the "corvette" scrip? Good luck with the spoiler. It looks great.

Thanks

Not sure, the owner likes the look of factory appeal or a stock appearing. We are doing quite a few custom parts we plan to bring to market for these cars so unless we feel the car needs it. At this point it was not my list. We are trying to be one of the first with an LT4. So if we remove that stuff most will have no idea what it is.

Understandable. You guys do such a great job with engine covers that I wasn't sure what if anything was planned. I wonder if there wouldn't be a market for a somewhat generic LT4 billet cover? I'm assuming it's fairly simple in terms of design but I could be very wrong.

that looks really sharp. The body lines look amazing. Did you get the engine bay sorted yet?
