Thanks for the welcome!
Sorry, had some network issues here at the AFA (Air Force Academy..I'm a DoD contractor) yesterday so couldn't check this site. Thanks for the welcome! Haven't done much to the car other than puttin' on the Flowmaster 3" cat-back. Planning on some wheels maybe, the Heritage grille, blacking out the back panel and grille surround, definitely a Barton shifter and a big Cowl hood. The stock hood is just WAY too tiny! Be nice if it was functional, but one step at a time. Also, I will be replacing those annoying mega-bowties with some SS emblems. Did GM really have to make those bowties that friggin' LARGE??? We know it's a Chevy.
I've already talked to the local tuner here about the Vortec upgrade that includes a full warranty, but not sure I wanna drop 8K just to have it "down-tuned" to 500hp in order to meet the warranty requirements. Any thoughts?? |

Bowtie emblems
Sorry, but being an old fart and having owned several Camaros, Mustangs, Cudas, etc. I gotta have my SS emblems in the grille..not something that looks like it came off a Chevy LUV truck. But that's why we're all car guys (any Camaro-women out here???) on this forum.. diff opinions, different looks. Wouldn't be any fun if we all did the same thing!
Love your motor by the way!!! Holy !@##%^!!! |

Yes..RMCR is who I was referring to. Heard good things! Glad to know someone else with a Camaro is using them.

According to Stillen, end of the month. Basically I really like the design, I know its a new design but like what Ive heard so far, performance wise I think it will be right in the ballpark for what I want, 550-575rwhp. It was a tuff decision tho.

Edelbrock SC
Be sure to keep us in the loop when it comes in and especially when you get it installed\tuned at RMCR!! I wanna be there... I wouldn't mind seeing how it compares to the Vortech, Maggie, etc., plus I liked the design and considered that option for a Saleen Disgustang I wanted...but I opted for the Camaro in the end.
