Finally another build - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

RupertPupkin · 08-22-2022, 05:17 PM

After a year of dicking around with life, and heavily contemplating on just selling, the car is finally going back under the knife. Was going back to a C6Z, but wanted to keep the back seat.

I really wanted 1 shop that can do everything in house, and not source out an engine and then get it dropped off at a shop. Too many moving parts for my liking. Decided to go with Koza Performance who did my buddies TT C6Z, and TT CTSV. Both cars making big power before the TT setup.

3.47 pulley unrestricted
DSX flex fuel sensor
DSX Aux Pump
Mcleod RXT Twin Disc
ZL1 pump

Surfdog SS · 08-22-2022, 08:56 PM

Awesome man good luck with the build!

Ashen 6.2 · 08-23-2022, 05:22 AM

Should be an awesome build! Looking forward to seeing the results.

RupertPupkin · 08-26-2022, 08:22 PM

So with the given displacement of the build, how will pulley sizes affect the power band/peak power. I'm assuming boost kick on sooner with a smaller pulley, max out sooner and drop off like a sack of shit (rpm specific).

Or with me over spinning the blower, it wont net as much since it's out of its efficiency point.

A V7 YSI is your best option sell off the 1500.

RupertPupkin · 08-30-2022, 12:53 PM

I wish.... for what I use the car for, not worth it anymore trying to put down 1000whp. The warden also said no more mods for the car. Lol.

Cool build a big motor then put a governor on it.

No sir. Still alive and kicking. Rarely drive it though.

RupertPupkin · 10-13-2022, 11:26 AM

Update: Heads are in the shop, just waiting on pistons and other stuff.

Did get a new set of shoes since Racestar had a clearance sale on some Recluse 18x10.5, and got the the 18x8.5 from CamaroCracka (TY sir).

Also got some pedders suspension from DSP. I opted out of doing coilovers since I don't want to adjust anything.

TheFlyingBananaSS · 10-13-2022, 11:36 AM

Love those wheels. Why not 17s?

They weren't available, or else I would've. For 130$ each, they're a steal. The only 17s they have left are the fronts. Fair amount of 18 rears and some 18 fronts.

Now time to try and get some tires. Fronts came with the wheels I got from Cracka.

TheFlyingBananaSS · 10-13-2022, 12:07 PM

I'm in the same boat. I need rubber for 17" welds. Still rolling a 10 second car on 20s
