We engineered these using the basic design of the YearOne Camaro but beefed it up a bit more and made it look a lot nicer. They're not completely tightened down yet but will be upon final assembly. I'll have a complete parts list and general instructions on my website once that's up and running.

Great location for the brackets. They are out of the way and hidden for all practical purposes.

Mark,
That engine is going to be a showpiece by itself. As Greg mentioned, how much firewall clearance will you have? ...and might heat be an issue? I know they normally sit on top of the valve covers, but behind the head...??? I'm guessing it's OK (since you're doing it ) and the YEAR1 car did.
...again, ...that car is going to be awsome...

For clearance . . . Well, we took a leap of faith, cause we have absolutely no idea how much clearance there will be. Fingers are crossed that they will fit, but it's going to be quite some time before we know for sure.

If they do not fit there, I know there is PLENTY of space under the fenders to hide them. [Smile]

Heat, I really don't think that is going to be an issue, I seriously doubt the heat at the back of the head is any worse than on top of the valve covers, granted they may not get the same amount of air flow, but remember the entire hood is full of louvers, so plenty of fresh air will be flowing around that engine bay.

A little bit of trial and error went into building those things and a lot of trips to the stores for parts. I swear we ran around to stores buying parts for most of an afternoon!

Very happy with how they turned out. [Big Grin]

Whoever said you couldn't run away from your problems obviously wasn't driving an SS.
