Tri-power
 
I have a custom built tri-power set-up I took off my 510 cu.in. 69 Camaro if you have not sourced one yet. It has nitrous plates and plumbed for it. Off a 69 vette 427, oval port. I have the heads that were port matched with the intake, and the correct air filter. Ran great, but it loved the gas!

It goes with the factory look he's trying to achieve in the engine bay... The DSE front was the best choice for a "factory looking" clip.

The more I'm around the car the more I really like the idea!

Thanks! But the customer has all his parts already...

Thanks Mario!

Here's a few pics of the rear suspension installed with the exhaust! There's a lot going on under this car!

Very nice work Jared as usual!

I like the way you routed the exhaust, Beautiful work on the whole car.

We have most of the Fab work done on the Camaro... We decided to clean up the bumpers a bit...

The rear got sucked into the car 3/4", narrowed 1 1/4", and the sides shortened 2". We have a nice 1/8" gap on everything now...

The front got narrowed 1 1/4" and the sides also shortened 2".

We should start Bodywork very soon!!!

Any chance you can make me that oval x crossover?

tones2SS 01-21-2015 04:45 PM

Nice work guys.
Looking really good. Those welds are awesome.

DBasher 01-21-2015 05:24 PM

Yeah I agree. Very nice touch.

Vince@Meanstreets 01-21-2015 11:49 PM

Nice work getting those pipes through there.

Also I prefer the bumper slash too...over cutting the body and tucking it in. So much cleaner.

Going great.

DBasher 03-19-2015 08:33 PM

What's the word?

I'm looking forward to seeing the ideas come together on this "stocker"

:thumbsup:

Thanks Dan!

We have been busy in the shop!!!

The Camaro is progressing well, we hope to have it in primer in the next few weeks!

With all the Fab work done, we dropped it off to Northwest Powder Solutions again to have the body blasted before we start bodywork. http://i461.photobucket.com/albums/q...20822EB5BE.jpg

When we got it back, everything got sealed up and we started finishing the bottom and inside of the body. The frame rails got sprayed satin black then the floor inside and out got sprayed with bedliner.http://i461.photobucket.com/albums/q...23B135BEE0.jpg

Very nice looking work. Going to be a nice ride.

SlowProgress 06-19-2015 10:52 PM

I hope this one is still moving along?

Vince@Meanstreets 06-19-2015 11:05 PM

coming out great @grendel this!!!

oopps sorry. Im not on IG :bitchslap:

SlowProgress 02-02-2016 08:50 PM

I guess I have to be the one to bump this thread. Is the project still active, or did it finish long ago and I missed it?

And a quick question was the oval tube sourced from Burns?

Thanks

Scott
