Diabla !

My name is Logan and my Camaro story when I was 3 years old. My dad had a black 69 Z/28 with a 377ci running 10s. Make a long story short, he was working on the car outside in the backyard and he went inside to get something to do drink. I was curious about the car so I got in it and started the car…Obviously I wasn’t tall enough to drive it so I got down in the floor and I was pressing the accelerator with my hand revving the car up…My dad immediately ran outside thinking someone was trying to steal the car…My dad just laughed at me…Since that day I was fascinated by muscle cars...After Iraq I bought a 2010 Camaro SS. I never modded a car in my life but I guess it was in my blood. I pissed a few of you off asking dumb questions etc, but this was a learning experience.

First Mod was a Hennessey CAI. Follow up with ARH Headers, GM Dove Tail Spoiler and Corsa Exhaust

Next was devastating..I was driving on cruise control from NC headed back to Jersey with no snow in the forecast and spun out and hit a guard rail..I was so ****in pissed...Of course my insurance company wouldnt replace my mods. So I stripped my own car.

After experiencing some heat dissipation issues with my transmission, under hood temps, and wheel hop it was time to do some more upgrades... I initially installed 2 spal fans on the PCM of NC trans cooler but it was cooling nearly enough... I went with a Setrab fanpack now my trans temp never gets higher than 180 degrees. Since the car was already jacked up I decided to drop the rear and put and install pedders sub frame busing and bmr diff bushings...I also changed the diff cover to the z28 cover because it has a internal cooler in which i will run an lines to keep diff cool; also went with 3:45 gears...

Hood Extractor

I seen another member on C5 do this mode and I thought it was pretty cost efficient way to reduce under hood temps so i did it...I had to trim the first to extractor opening do to my CAI touching causing the extractor to raise when the hood was closed..I also got a different coupler to angle the CAI down at a 45 degree angle..problem fixed.
