Their shop is about 5 minutes from my office and I can tell you...some tricky stuff is going on there.

I am happy my car is out of there as I would be cutting my trunk back out for the IRS unit.

There is a car in there that no one is talking about. 57 hardtop with C4 front and rear suspension. The really cool thing about the car though, it has a LT5 motor in it.

Cool, there's a motor you don't see too much of.

To answer Steve's question regarding paint. Alot of you now know of my chief fabricator Jim Pettigrew's background in Nascar over the last 30 yrs. which is considerable and you've seen the quality of his work and skills. Well about 4 months ago his brother Greg joined us and Greg is to paint and body what Jim is to fabricating. Look for some killer paint to come out of the shop. The PPG regional guy here has known Greg for 25 years and wishes to partner up with us to get some of our cars on the road with PPG's trailer for their show display. I can't quite figure out if I even offered to do this but that's how much they think of Greg's work. Anyway we offer full paint and body as well. Ed

An incredible combination,for sure. Since I still have so many contacts in the ZR-1 community,I've been thinking long and hard about installing a 93-95 LT5 in my car. It would probably be one of a kind.

You remember in my original postings last year we had planned to develop this as a kit and so during development we've built all our jig fixtures for our manufacturing setup to do it over and over. We also have developed a body jig to produce kit cars that'll look alot like a 1st gen Camaro. LOL. This car was in development at the time Mike Tancreti decided to purchase it. The next one gets the C5 Rear transaxle. We've been real busy developing the full product line and you already know of the C5 front subframe the subframe connectors, our rear medium tub kit( not my desciption but one of the mag writers quips) the stepped racing headers for all drivetrains, the custom narrowed tanks and now we have a real slick roll cage that tucks into the A pillar and becomes part of the interior. We also ahave the 4-link rears available for the medium tub kit. We're presntly packaging supercharger and turbo kits. It'll be possible to one stop shop at 21st Century Street Machines for your 1st gen Camaro.I'll try and keep up with the posting but you can always get me at [email protected]. Thanks Ed



So how much would this setup cost ?minus the transaxle
And I assume u can´t use 13.5inch c4 brakes on this setup?

It comes in at a little under 20,000 installed. That’s ready to hook a drive shaft up to the diff and drive down the road
