So cool, Wish there was a video around somewhere of this beast running.

Very cool project!

Impressive what a build. Now that guy really has a very unique one of a kind camaro. Doubt most will try and copy his build. Hats off to someone who really thought outside the box and made his vision happen.

Extra 400 pounds in the front, that thing must corner like a pig, even though he says it doesn't handle any different.

lol.. that would be fun. I will keep a ls motor in my Camaro though.. Reminds me of a video with a ls motor in a Mitsubishi evo.. Definatly does not sound stock.. lol.

My duramax has a twin turbo kit, dual cp3, built trany etc.. head studs, but stock bottom end. it made 530 wheel hp maxed out on stock turbo. ran 13.03 full weight just like I pull my race trailer for my street bikes. I have not dynode it since the twin turbo, dual cp3, head studs. tuning should be around 650 wheel hp. highest I feel like pushing my luck on stock bottom end. It was done a year ago. I took it to the track for the first time a couple weeks ago. first pass 12.8 at 110 blowing the tires off pretty good in four wheel drive off the line. Second pass dropped tire pressure and boost pressure on the line. 12.48 at 110 still spinning a little off the line. Last pass 12.32 at 111mph. Didn't spin off the line, but spun a little 60' out.
this was on my winter all terrain tires. I thought it would go faster because the tire wheel combo is a lot lighter then my 20" wheels with street tires. I pull over a tenth better sixty and do not have traction problems with the 20's. That is full weight. crew cab 4x4 duramax. spare tire, class 5 hitch, air bag setup for towing etc.. I know I could get it in the 11's with my other tires and taking a few things off. Imagine what it would do in a Camaro if you could get traction.. lol.
