IRONWORKS - 1967 Camaro with LT4, Forgeline's, Wilwood, Lots of new custom parts

[ironworks]

Coming SUMMER of 2016

We were asked to build a 1967 Camaro for a very good customer of ours that we purchase a few years ago. He wanted to wait for the LT4 engine and run a T56 transmission. Well they unveiled the new dry sump LT4 at SEMA last year at that point we had the car mini tubbed and had the new Extreme Front suspension clip with Torque arm from Speedtech. The plan was to make the Camaro cool, but no major body mods.

We started with a super nice rust free car I bought off Craigslist to flip. Well I flipped it to the customer 10 minutes after picking it up in Lancaster.

We are so busy here at the shop I sent the car to a great fabricator in Northern California that is doing some Sheetmetal work for us to help us keep up. I'm not sure he wants to be public, but if you have been around long enough you will figure it out. He did the mini tubs and aligned all the sheetmetal along with the front and rear suspension install. This really sped up the process for us so we could stay focused on the work we had in the shop and satisfy and already happy customer.

Just like most projects they are never what they seem. Either way better then first thought or worse. Well this one was a little worse. We decided to do the passenger quarter repair some small sections that had been repairs 20 or 30 years ago. We also mini tubbed the car and performed some tricks to the rear outer wheelhouse to allow us to clear and 335-19 wheel at a descent ride height. I won't bore you with the pages of possible minor fab pics.

When we got the car back it looked like this. It was jacked up on some sweet IROC's.

In order to clear the super wide front tires on the 67 Camaro we will have to considerably rework the inner fenders. We are in process of that now.

Then it was decided we would make some seta brackets to mount some off road seat sliders to make the seat adjustable. You pull the pin and slide it forward and repin it where you want.

We used a removeable column adapter I found online that seems to work pretty good. This will make entry and exit from these seats easier.

We had some old Anvil hood vents laying around from my old Camaro years ago and put them on there and liked the hood. So we went with it. We also thought we wanted a little more then the stock hood latch incase it was not going to clear on the coolers we hung on the front of the AutoRad core support.

Then we mocked up some Aero Latches. Warning the carbon ones they sell are just painted plastic to look carbon even though they are 20 bucks more.

[ironworks]

After getting the radiator and core support set up we started looking for a place for the stock dry sump tank. This thing is super tall. So it looks like it will have to go right square in the center.

Wow .... that Camaro is a lucky car!!!! :king:

Is that really where you will mount the tank. Not trying to be a smartass but really curious. Very weird, can you run a custom tank or shrink that one?

How come you don't use a question mark when asking a question? Not trying to be a smart ass, But really curious.

Well there are alot of reasons why. As much as I'm sure a dry sump tank is a dry sump tank. The new LT4 tank has alot of stuff in it that was not in the LS7. I also think the guys at GM may have their hands tied on some things but when you look at the tank they use in the new LT4 and you make a few phone calls for an engine that most people have never seen inside at this point. I went with the Engineers at GM that work on the performance ZO6 cars at Bob Bondurant Driving school that have gone through a few engines. If you doing any research on these cars you will find the new bearings are lead free and as soon as they get hot the engine is done unlike the old LS stuff.

If you have a better idea on a place to put something like this I'm all ears. It's 23" tall and has 2 tanks.

And thirdly and most importantly, the Customer likes the OEM vibe of stuff and a dipstick that fits in the tank and works like it should and is pretty user friendly is an aspect he likes. Plus he gets a deal on GM parts and we know without a doubt this set up works.

[KPC67]

Nice work on everything. I will be following this one.

[Graham08]

Nice work! That dry sump tank is interesting for sure. Ideally a tall, skinny tank like that is what you want for best function, but fitting it in the available space is a challenge. I wonder if the second tank is a vent can, or if it serves some other purpose.

Fair enough you got me sorry. I will look into your question. And good luck with your build.

[Sonar Chief]

Could you provide some detail on the electric-assist install going on here ... looks like a Uni-Steer under the dash and possibly a Ididit column? Ideas on mounting the unit to a roll bar? That's a lot of torque going on there ....

Been drooling over all the pics on Photo Bucket ... :thankyou:

The steering unit is built into the column. With all the stuff under the dash it is really tight. You could use a standard column mount and just put it inline.

My desert race car has EPS and the way its mounted is pretty flimsy on the steering column side so I'm not sure its an issue as it is an assist.

I follow your sheetmetal guy on instagram. He is definitely a top notch fabricator. I drool over all the metal finishing, good thing my phone won't cause rust.

I like this. I'll be putting some aero-latches on mine as well as I KNOW my coolers dont leave room for a latch. Sacrificed the stock latch for IC size. Worth it. I like how those look on the corners. That all you're going to run or considering any further in?

[Schwartz Perf]

Cool stuff guys.

We discovered the extra reservoir on a 2014 Z28 we worked on as well. LS7 Z06's didn't have that. Turns out it's just for additional capacity.

What are you doing about power steering? I hear Wegner is working on something, but no ETA yet.

Haha! That looks retarded! It'd look way better with a black bungee cord...:confused59:.....at least the fuel door is a little different.
Oh and Rodger, it's a lot not alot and no need to capitalize after a comma.:mock:
Lighten up Francis

[SlowProgress]

Subscribed! Thanks for spoiling the Camaro guys again. Always fun to watch professionals!

[WSSix]

Fantastic! I really like the fuel fill location, but what about venting? Does that cap not vent?

[ironworks]

Fantastic! I really like the fuel fill location, but what about venting? Does that cap not vent?

Its a 4" ATL cap it is non venting. We will vent the tube inline and run a large tank vent to get it to fill well with a California fuel fill nozzle. They suck so bad.

[WSSix]

Thanks for the explanation, Rodger.

[Che70velle]

Nice build, as usual guys!
I had to look up pictures of a "California fuel fill nozzle". Wow...

[ironworks]

Nice build, as usual guys!
I had to look up pictures of a "California fuel fill nozzle". Wow...

I absolutely hate pumping gas on a muscle car that wont hold the nozzle itself while it pumps. So we did this. I'm way to tall to neal down and pump the gas behind the license plate of a muscle car for 10 minutes. This car is meant to haul ass and be fun and easy to drive. Yes it has some race parts but that will just make it fun to drive faster. We plan to put some cup holders and some other stuff to make it user friendly.

Kind of what pro-touring used to be.

[syborg tt]

Kind of what pro-touring used to be.

Well said and very nice build.

btw I am a little taller then Greg (not much) and I also hate bending down to pump gas in the 70.

[Solid LT1]

Cool stuff guys.

-Dale

Actually the 2009 and later LS7, LS3 (dry sump GS motor) and ZR1's all have the added on "piggyback" oil tank that increases capacity to 10.5 QTs from the 8 QTs that the 2006-08 Z06s had. You might want to talk to Aviad or Lingenfelter about improving the LT4s dry sump tank by modifying the lower sump, it would make for an easier packaging than the GM "patchwork" that was done as a "dirty and cheap" solution to allow use of existing parts to be retained in the oiling fix.

[waynieZ]

Nice build Rodger! This is going to be a wild ride with that motor in it. Body lines look nice and crisp.

[bdahlg68]

I don't think the OE tank will fit there with the secondary tank.

Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk

The OE tank wont fit there even without the extra tank. Its too tall and would require quite a large access door for the dipstick and top connections in the top of the fender. The tank will be going up front just like we planned. ( only without the bungee cord ) We have some ideas on ways to complete the package that the customer and I think will look good.

Only his opinion matters.

[TomM]

This is killer....figured if anybody could pull it off it would be you guys.....as usual....nice work...

[Jerems]

Really cool build, planning on doing the wet sump version in my 1966 chevelle. Good luck with the build!

I didn't know Steve Moal would work on a Camaro..... LOL



I was talking to Neal the other day while kneeling to fill my gas tank... I wasn't bent over and the gas splashed in my face. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA:thumbsup: :D

very inspiring! love the gas filler

You might want to talk to Aviad or Lingenfelter about improving the LT4s dry sump tank by modifying the lower sump, it would make for an easier packaging than the GM "patchwork" that was done as a "dirty and cheap" solution to allow use of existing parts to be retained in the oiling fix.

Didn't know that, guess we haven't worked on enough later C6 Z's lol.

Aviaid is a good choice; they didn't have a solution for the Z28 tank, we had to modify his original design LS7 tank baffle to fit. You'd need to send them the LT4 tank.

OH MAN!!! pretty please offer those spoilers for sale!!!!

[Flash68]

Only his opinion matters.

And that's your opinion. So there.

[sd67]

If you make that spoiler in Aluminum, count me in for one for my 67. That piece is a work of art.

[DBasher]

And that's your opinion. So there.

Hey, if I wanted your opinion I'd give it to you. :D

Rodger, is this another Fairway build?

[57hemicuda]

I think these new direct injection engines are cool. Remember talking to Mark at an event about these engines. He was telling me how their was an entire floor at GM designated to writing tune on these engines. He thought the aftermarket was going to have problems installing cams, etc., and getting them to run properly. I guess time will tell.

Its a good thing in stock form they are the cats meow, as always, very cool build.

I have heard the same thing. But it doesn't take long for the aftermarket to catch up. I bet it will be longer then usual due to the success and huge following the LS engine has. There is really nothing for these engines and they have been out for a few years already.

Put me on the waiting list if you do mass produce the lid spoiler in CF along with the wicker bill wing.

[WSSix]

Rodger, out of curiosity, do you guys have anything planned for the supercharger lid as a means of removing or covering up the "corvette" scrip? Good luck with the spoiler. It looks great.

Thanks

Not sure, the owner likes the look of factory appeal or a stock appearing. We are doing quite a few custom parts we plan to bring to market for these cars so unless we feel the car needs it. At this point it was not my list. We are trying to be one of the first with an LT4. So if we remove that stuff most will have no idea what it is.

[WSSix]

Understandable. You guys do such a great job with engine covers that I wasn't sure what if anything was planned. I wonder if there wouldn't be a market for a somewhat generic LT4 billet cover? I'm assuming it's fairly simple in terms of design but I could be very wrong.

Some pictures of the rear spoiler. We plan to make them in Carbon very soon. But if you want one in Aluminum just like this they are 2800 each in a group of 3. The spoiler is hogged out on the bottom side. The trunk works just fine with the stock trunk springs. The gap on the quarter is tall to allow a guy to sand the bottom and fit it to the car when its body worked.

The fuel filler we did will work better with the custom tank Rick's tank sells. It kinda works like a mustang tank. We will probably sell this bracket as kit here shortly.

I have a cam, CAI, pulleys and headers in the 2015 Z06... if you look over at Corvette Forum, there is a lot for them.

I have Calloway building another 2015 we bought due to the longer 100K warranty.

After getting the radiator and core support set up we started looking for a place for the stock dry sump tank. This thing is super tall. So it looks like it will have to go right square in the center.

Hey I was going to ask if you had an Ironworks part number for that fancy yellow retainer? Figured you might have gotten tired of all the extremely intricate brackets you build. Diggin the build.

I'm probably as scared of the new LT engine as I was of the LS engine 15 years ago.

No part number for the all in one mount every thing to anything bracket. I'm in the patent phase right now.

There is nothing to be scared of. They all suck squeeze bang and blow.

I can have the spoiler made now, in billet but its very expensive. We shoudl have some carbon units in a few months. I have to do bit more fit up testing. As far as adjustable it will be either or situation. You either have the extension or you don't.

There is nothing to be scared of. They all suck squeeze bang and blow.

And created an account back in December two years ago just to post now?

Sorry, not really a mystery. I build jet boats for a living, even put an LS, LQ, LM in a few. I use the fab skills I see here to inspire some of my builds.

Big fan of Camaro's, ever since my Uncle rolled up in a 1978 Gen II when I was a kid. Of course I thought it was a Trans Am (Knight Rider and Smokey and the Bandit were on TV in that era), which my uncle quickly corrected.

Enough hi-jacking, I read the post and couldn't resist the reply.

The progress has continued on the 67 Camaro at a pretty fast pace.

We have everything mounted under the dash. The Large Lt4 ECU, the EPS controller, the Raingear wiper system, the Vintage Air Gen4 unit, the Tilton pedal assembly with Throttle pedal and the EPS equipped steering Column. We had to recess the firewall in the middle to allow access to some connection on the back side of the engine and not have to move the engine forward. Things are very tight under the hood and under the dash.

The engine compartment is also pretty tight. The large wheel tubs pretty much kill any room around the wheels with the 19x11 Forgeline wheels. We also made an intercooler tank shaped to the curve of the inner fender to increase capacity as much as possible. The shocks on the Ring brother hood hinges needed to be relocated to the firewall down bars as they no longer cleared the wheel tubs.

We modified the under structure of the hood for the vents and the aero latches.

[ironworks]

We also installed the Speedtech torque arm mount into the unibody of the car. We had to remove the seat spot welds and set the outside of the top of the floor to attach to the subframe connectors under the floor. Works out pretty slick.

Thanks guys. We are trying to make a white Camaro stand out when complete. We really don't do too many renderings as reality is different then a sketch on paper. We strive to keep working on the issues that bug us until it just looks right.

What are your plans for the fuel system on the low pressure side? What pump will you use and will you be running the return-less PWM setup that's stock in the corvette? 72 PSI at 45 GPH from what the LT4 spec sheet says.

Love the build so far.

Did you update the supercharger or are the new crate motors coming with the new lid design?

We updated. Its not proper to run a corvette lid on a Camaro. HAHA

[ironworks]

Did you ever produce the spoiler in carbon fiber?

I did not. I wanted to get the gap on the part that over hangs the quarter panels defined so the latch will close and also not hit the paint but still be a close gap.

And we took 3 cars to SEMA last year and for a small shop like us that was alot of work.

[ironworks]

Here is an update on the Fairway 67 Camaro. This car is gonna be a beast. It's got alot of really bitchin parts but is still very stock. We are getting ready to begin designing and machining the interior panels from plastic here very soon. Bumpers are about to go to Chrome. We fitting them so tight we wanted to get everything installed. To check final fit.

You can find a ton of build pics on our website.

How did you guys seal the wiper arm stand offs to the cowl? I've looked through all the pictures on your site and on here and can't find a good angle on them since you cut out the inner cowl part.

We actually did not remove the cowl or fresh air vents from this car. Its a pretty standard Rain Gear wiper system install.

It's been fun watching this one come together. Great work!

[CamaroAJ]

We actually did not remove the cowl or fresh air vents from this car. Its a pretty standard Rain Gear wiper system install.

I meant since the rain gear is fitted from inside the car as the upper cowl has close out panels welded in, how did you keep water from running into the interior of the car? Looks like you made black plates that may have a gasket sandwiched in between?

We smoothed the cowl. I forget we had to remove the air passage to make enough room for the EPS, and ECU and all the other crap under the dash.
