I am hoping that someone has already found an option for folks that swapping LSAs into their 1st gen Camaro. I had one from Frank on my LS3, but because the angle on the TB now, that no longer is working.

Rotofab for 5th gen Camaro fits. You’ll have to trim the big Aluminum L thing (don’t know what it’s called) but it will contact the inner fender. You’ll have to grind it to fit the contour of the inner fender. That’s what I used for my swap. You can find them pretty cheap on Camaro5 forum.

Thank you, but I am looking for something similar to what Frank does, but for an LSA. I like that closeout panel and the air filter being tucked away and hidden. Also, running out of room in the engine bay lol

Can’t help you then lol. I don’t think there’s anything out there like that unless it’s custom made. Frank doesn’t make them for LSA, but maybe for LT4/5? The angle of the throttle body is similar to the LSA I think.

Same problem here, I just swapped LT4 and Magnuson in my Nova, probably going to have to build from scratch. Let me know if you find anything that works? Thanks!

That is what I am thinking as well, but will let you know if I fins anything.

Did you contact him to see if he could modify it?

Who's this Frank that makes the intakes?

Nice work! Probably close to the angles I need for mine.
