In this pic, is the long L bracket attached to the radiator custom made or where did you source it?

Thank you.

Sorry I don’t understand your question. The picture is of the dry sump tank.

The radiator was made by C&R. The car was modified a lot to make it fit.

Hey Mark. Great build per usual...

I’m wondering how you check the oil with the dry sump tank in that location. Do you use a custom dipstick through the fitting on the firewall? Would a sight glass welded on the side of the tank work?...

Thank you for all the information and ideas you provide to this forum.

LED bulb trial testing.

Many LED bulbs are too bright as running lights (Gordon’s Camaro[emoji2959])

I wanted LED bulbs closer to stock brightness for running lights.

Mark stated these lights are LED, but wanted brightness close to original bulb.

So Mark, what lumen number did you end up with?

Also if you don't mind stating, what source are you using for the fiberglass front bumper?

I just read a bunch of reviews and went with these.

The front bumper was from 4 years ago. I think was from Marquez. I’ll need to double check and it needed a lot of rework.

That's awesome. Love your logo in the display

Awesome builds as always! I love to see Matt's fabrication and Scott is an artist with the wiring. After Matt sent pics of the wiring on my friends Impala it made me gut my car...lol
Can't wait to see this one finished...

Aschle 01-14-2021 12:56 PM

Have you used those headlights before ? I was looking into a pair for my car but am unsure how well they really work. My original lights are horrible... Hopefully there's a good alternative

This car is on another level of ridiculousness. haha

Beautiful build Mark !!!

Mark, do you happen to have a photo of the outlet side of these ducts at the rotor/exit of the subframe? Curious how you "funnel" the air onto the rotor. I'm looking for a way to cool a similar set up on track with Dennis's old car. Thank you in advance.

I was hoping you can share your opinion on wheels....18 vs 19?
Your wheels look killer

I’m running 18X10 front and 18X12 rear mainly due to tire availability. For events that require a 200 tread wear tire the BFG Rival is the go to right now.

If you do not intend to track the car the Michelin is a better street tire. If you like the look of 18/19 go for it.

Which Michelins, PS2 or PS4?

PSll is a great street tire.

Stock GM grill and a lot of rubbing of the sheet metal and bumper.

Tire pressure monitors even... :D

It just keeps getting better with each new “Stielmaro”!

Absolutely gorgeous, I love every part of this car.

If Chevrolet made this car today, this is exactly what it would look like.

Well done Mark.

If Chevrolet really wanted to capture the classic lines of a Camaro in a modern build, they would have done something like this!!
Just an amazing car!!

DKz Garage 01-18-2021 05:51 AM

Car looks fantastic Mark, as do all your builds!! Any chance you know the part number on the power brake vacuum hose?? :)
