A quick paint shop to show the weatherstrip.
It pops right off/on. T.

The drag strip is like sniffing glue, it's cheap, it's a decent buzz, it doesn't last long and they are all the same. Road racing is like China White Heroin, the buzz is stronger, the high lasts for hours, it's extremely addictive and they are all different. I can't wait for my next Track fix.

Your welcome C. Not my engine bay just the first engine bay pic I came across.
I do agree with the others though, nice skulls on Sybil. Those skulls have to add mass HP, lol. If not they should. T.

On a related note, I can attest that adding a ZL-1 bumper cover to an SS causes some front end lift and mild porpoising at speeds as low as 75-80mph. I am looking at hex vents or the 2014 route also. Apparently all that additional air needs to go somewhere. Maybe the additional ZL--1 skid plate pieces help also

I will do the zl1 front next year. I herd it let in more air but did not know it was that much. After lowering the car 3/4 of a inch I don't feel the lift until 130+. I bet with the zl1 front and no hood extractor it would be really bad. Might just get hex vents installed at camaro fest and try the weather strip trick and see how it dose

I'm glad I could help. I also bought the ZL-1 fender liners. It would be even worse without (I think)
