Thanks! The intercooler came from http://exoticperformanceplus.com/.
A buddy of mine made 856hp to the rear wheels with a similar engine with this intercooler.

Wilwood brakes and Hydraboost installed, looks like the inline tube SS brake line kit is going to work out perfect.

Just how I would build one. A skunk with Fiske wheels.:bow:

It looks great. Nice work.

Richio1 12-20-2010 08:12 PM

Great build. Looks awesome... Love the colors- as you can see I am partial to the black/white Z28.

Question though, did you paint or powder coat the radiator/intercooler? I want mine black too.

Thanks

They are both painted. I noticed that some of the DSE cars had painted radiators and intercoolers so I called them and they said they didn't have any issues with any of them that were painted. Good taste in colors!

I never thought of it like that! Pole Cat might be a good name for the car.

Parking brake

After searching on the forums for a nice clean way to run the emergency cables on a F-body, this is what I came up with. I bent a piece of 19 gauge steel on a brake then used nutserts to attach it to the side of the subframe and floor board, it should be plenty rigid for what it needs to do and it will be painted black also. I am sure there are better ways to do this.

Been working on the fuel system and also installing sound deadner. Had to order more Dynamat to finish up. For anyone doing a Camaro, Firebird, or Nova, to do the roof, inside of doors, backside of firewall and cowl, inside of kick panels, tubs, deck panel, complete floor and the underside of the speaker box, it is taking me app. 92 square feet of Dynamat.

tones2SS 01-15-2011 05:49 PM

Very nice. Thanks for the info on the Dynamat.:thumbsup:

waynieZ 01-15-2011 06:11 PM

It looks like it moving a long. Nice work.

Camaro looks awsome :thumbsup: who's fuel tank did you use?

69x22 01-16-2011 11:16 PM

Thanks, it's a Ricks tank with 2 Walboros in it, the 2nd one will come in off of boost via a hobbs switch. The beauty of it is if you have problems with one pump a override switch will turn the second one on to get you home.

Yeah when I first heard he didn't have a paint booth I was scratching my head also. He has a long narrow shop that he paints in what he does is he opens one set of door about 3 feet then he has a couple of box fans that he installs in the opening he then installs filters on the other door that is opened about 3 feet. It takes him a whole day to convert his shop to a paint booth. The paint on this car is flawless so it must work pretty good. Thanks for the compliments guys.
