Awesome rendering.
I noticed the flat hood. What are the plans for the drivetrain?

The engine is a 427 cu in LS1 from Bill Mitchell. It made 614hp@ 6000. Trans is a 4L65e with a paddle shifter from Bowler Transmissions. We're using an Edelbrock Victor jr EFI intake and an MSD billet throttle body, Dynatech 2" dia. headers and Detroit Speed motor mounts. Yes, its all under the oem flat hood. This car required no panel replacement or repair...we could have [should have?] metalfinished the entire car! It will roll in a couple weeks and be on the track at Year One ready to do business.
For the guys who want a duplicate front splitter...we have to build the first one then we'll see about duplicating it. The rear diffuser and tail light treatment will be of interest as well.
BTW...we used the Detroit Speed mini tubs in the rear with our AirBar and a 335/30-18 tire on a 18 x 11 rim with 6.75 backspace and a oem width rear housing...it fits perfectly with no modifications.Bret Voelkel
