Funny, we both have similar cars and both ripping them apart and turning them into monsters. So be warned - if you see a SIM w. IOM stripes coming down the street, get out of the way (j/k).

BTW - thanks to Anna Bearinger at Sparta Chevy for getting me this car in record time, honoring all discounts, doing all the paperwork for me through the mail and for working with Speed Inc. to get the car loaded and back to thier shop. If you are waiting at 1100 for your order to be accepted - give Anna a call as she got me my car in less than 40 days from the time I ordered (would have been 4 weeks if I did not have to wait for stripes at factory).

Larry - I truely think I made the right choice with your shop. You have a proven track record of killer cars and Tom (the owner) personally drove 9 hours to pickup my car and trailer it back to your shop. If anyone is in the market to do some mods on your Camaro or Corvette give Speed Inc. a call. Even if you do not live in thier area - I can assist any Camaro5 member with enclosed transportation to and from your location at a price you will not believe.

600RWHP?!? Now talking my language! lol Very nice car Todd! Cannot wait to see the build up pics.
LOVE the fact that you went with the Stainless Works full exhaust. A lot of people look at the price and shy away, but you get what you pay for and they are one of the best out there right now, in my opinion.
Should be a killer build bud!

Thanks - I actually wanted to do more head work and possibly a forged stroker bottom end but as a street driven car ( I never track my cars) it would just be a waste of money. 600rwhp is more than any of us really need - but it sure will be nice to have

Very nice. I'm the same as you, I wouldn't/don't track my cars as well.

Great work Larry & Speed Inc. Really hoping we hit the 600rwhp number.

BTW - the Speed Inc shop 2010 Camaro did an 11.2 1/4 this past weekend. These guys are making great progress with the 2010 Camaro.

The pass was @ 120.5, but we have been 122 to date. The DA was 2500, so with better air we will grab our 10 sec slip
