theres plenty of room in 4th gens..once u mod the shit out of the engine compartment.after u do that theres just as much room as any other camaro or even more.

u can cut the over hang on the fire wall back about 6 inches and then get the extended hood from vfn and trim it to fit,u also can cut the fender wells some to clear headers..this is what the big block guys do,u can also cut the front of the car apart and then mover the rad over and forward about 4 to 6 inches an mount it diff to free up room.

theres a ton of tricks but an lt1 on a 175 or 200 shot setup right will run some 7s in the 1/8
