he does diesel. run a scoop on the hood to feed a massive turbo sticking out the hood. or reroute the exhaust to be able to run twin turbos.

HAHA just saw this... It's to bad your wait would be twice as long as the preorder deal. I used to work in the race shop. Some cool toys but Gale is a tool!

I ordered mine through Berger, there is no plan for a berger camaro. Not saying that somebody else wont do it and they will slap a berger badge on it. But at their facility they are not doing it

Nickey Chicago the Hi-Performance Division of the Famous Nickey Chevrolet was the the first to install the biggest and baddest available GM engine in a Camaro, way back in 1966, when the Camaro was first introduced. The first transplant was a 450hp L72 427ci, over the counter engine and soon to follow was the the L88 427ci Aluminum head engine and eventually the all aluminum ZL1 427ci engine.

Don Swiatek, Nickey's only Hi-Performance Cars and parts manager said "this feels just like 1967 all over again".

Check out some of the Vintage advertisements and articles from back in the day.

It seems to me like modern emission & noise regulations would really crimp what dealers can do to the cars and still keep it "legal". Plus the warranty issues already mentioned. So you end up with $5000-$10,000 dealer packages that are mostly decals and dress-up parts.
