Saw/heard it drive by today in down town Hillsboro...Anybody know anything about this car? I was guessing it was just gear noise, but then I heard a blow off valve. It sounded wicked, had a nice cowl hood, a couple graphics/stickers I think...
 
Though, the guy I am thinking of never had a cowl hood or decals (obviously, that could have changed). The only vette I know with a cowl hood and decals has a 454 solid roller LS2-based engine, with a mountain of nitrous. Although, his is not a fixed roof coupe. Now I am curious who it was you saw. You are sure about the cowl hood?

It was definately a cowl, I saw the car from the side. It could have some kind of scoop in it, but the hood raised above the fenders. It had a very unique exhaust note, not sure why, but I would describe it as gravely...very non-mustang sounding.
