I'll take the seats! GM would win big if they threw in some Recaros or something of the like.

Ok...Ok... I'll take the brakes, suspension, engine too. Why not. ;-)

Lots of custom work on it, and I respect the work they did but I don't exactly see what makes it a ZR1 Camaro. Sure, it has ZR1 style wheels. And the brake calipers are blue. And it has the 2.3L blower from the LS9. Alright, but there is no LS9. No mention of carbon fibre. No poly carbonate window. The spoiler is too big.

When I think of a ZR1, I think of this:

The car in that article doesn't remind of this image, besides the wheels.

But 1200HP!!!

actually it said in the article they DID use a LS9 motor for this build. looks pretty legit to me except no zr1 see through hood ruined it....i'd call it a zr1 camaro with a see through hood, kind of a big appearance thing associated to help lamens know its a zr1 and with it avail and such a cool engine cover i have no clue why they didn't use one. still awesome though

Do those seats look like re-skinned CTS-V pieces?

Looks good!

Perhaps I misinterpreted this then:
"a 434 cubic inch (7.2L) ERL dry-sleeve long block with a forged rotating assembly."

I love the front bumper. I would add the ACS V8 Splitter though. I don't like the lower grille with the 2 fog lights. I'd have to think of another lower grille to put in.
