2014 Heat extractor on a 2010 hood - Page 58 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Follow-up, I bough the ACS TL1 insert and it fit! I even mounted the rain pan. I have a Rotofab intake tube which may be a factor to consider as well. My guess is even if your air tube touches you could remove the rain pan and get the desired clearance with the looks.

Got a OEM vent and tray coming, finally going to do this. I see that the ACS instructions call for different placement of their vent vs the OEM spot. Does anyone know the reasoning behind this? I might try and put mine back an inch since half will get blocked by the Vararam intake.

Gotcha, I think mounting it an inch back will be good since it will have more of the vent open to the engine bay to get more air out. Might run no rain tray myself, depends on how much water gets in without it.

Need the ZL1 belly pan now...

OP, that came out great, very ingenious!

Yeah I feel you. I've also been thinking about the zl1 belly pan. I just know it makes an oil change more of a hassle, because you have to remove the pan every time haha

Modified the rain tray to fit the Vararam. I mounted the vent 11" from the front of the hood to get it back a little further. Figure it'll get more air further back because of the intake. Here's the rain tray:

Haven't had a chance to drive it but I'm happy lol trying to decide if I want to have the center painted white

I think so but you might have to drill into the frame up front. I think it connects where the belly pan screws into the frame
