I forgot to mention this project blower wise started June this year with the TBS blower ordered and then booking the Engine builder, Full strip and big Cam Etc. The catcher is made here in NZ by Al's Blower drives in Auckland under license with GARLITS in the states. These are top Air catches I purchased and did a K&N filter for max performance. This is my dream and will be the only one in NZ as all other blown Camaro's here are Gen1 and Gen2!! I love it and that's all that matters!!

I think this will be fun to watch.... But we need a few more pics.... Drag racer, street terror, show and go??? Mad Max 3.0 ????


Seriously, motor specs would be nice to hear... Builder, Block, heads, CI, Compression, Goals for Boost, fuel system, Injectors, hopeful HP numbers...



Drive train... trans, diff, gears, suspension... you know ALL of IT....

Will have all specs ETC hopefully next month when finally complete. At around $31,000 USD or $55 K NZD this was and is a very expensive build. BUT one of a kind in this country..... will be special.

I’m kinda familiar with big money builds… My build thread is proof of my lunacy…

Like I always tell folks, if you're gonna do it, do it right, do it once, do all your homework and all will work out. In our car world, anything is possible if you have the time, money and know how. And as SSE 4 SS said, lots goes into these dream creations, as his was!!

Well - you are in good company as some of us know all about expensive builds. And it ain't about money if it isn't done correctly and with attention to detail.
