I am confused. We are doing the engine stuff..so details on that coming soon. There was a bit of paint work put into this car.

I really like the way you made the front bumper... Is their any way you are going to sell an SS bumper without the mailbox slot?

Now that we are entering another phase of this project..I thought it was time for an update.

First the good...pictures from Camaro5Fest. Note the metallic in the black paint.

Car made 637 RWHP with TVS-2300, GT9 Cam, and basic bolt ones. Tuned by Behe Performance.

Now the bad...

Defective GM oil pump with stuck check valve got on the way to GM Nationals. The oil pump only did not work for a minute or two...but the motor ended up with a nasty knock. We tore it down in house, and found it trashed several lifters, which trashed the cam. The lifters were mushroomed in the bore, and hard to get out, so we decided we needed a new short block. Now waiting on a Lingenfelter 417 to get here

The rest of the build is being handled in house by our new performance install side of the business!

Definitely better than a bumblebee. I like the V6 front bumper.

Blk-Ice · 09-29-2012, 11:43 AM
