2013 10-22 2nd Chance - Air Cleaner
www.2ndchancecamaro.com

Good Evening,

We are getting down to all of the small detail stuff. I had a couple idea's what I wanted for an air cleaner and this one turned out much better then the original idea.

A member on Nasty Z28 suggested I look at Nascar Air Cleaners and then the wheels started to spin. I order a full Carbon Fiber Air Cleaner Assembly from Roush Yates. The were kind enough to ship it out 90 minutes before they were going home so we would get it next day. Great guys and I can't say enough good things about them.

Pretty cool.What MSD box is that on the intake.I need to order one.

It comes with the edelbrock manifold and its a MSD LS1 box. The best part is the manifold has a mount for it built in.

Marty your car is very impressive,the engine looks really good with that intake,carbon fiber fiber is cool also,hope you guys have a good time in Vegas.:thumbsup:

Thank you very much. I can't wait to see it in two weeks but who's counting the days ?...

Looking good, I like the idea that you skipped forward on your phases! I can't wait to see this done!

Mike

Thanks Mike

Ps I'm not sure this car will ever be done. I have way to many ideas

But what happens when you come home from Sema with out the car because you sold it there??? :peepwall: :G-Dub:

I hope this don't happen because I can't wait to see it home in your garage so I can drool over it and go for a ride :y0!: :y0!: :relax:

Oh.... <ah hem>.... uh.... man.... uh.... well? Just... wowza!



HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA

I already have that figured out. I buy Scotts car and cut it up and do a "Do-Over"

Nice work! :)

So did Kenny end up using the modified carbon piece as a template for fabbing it in steel? I only ask because it doesn't look like there was any carbon left other than the base plate...

Looks great, love the approach you're taking with this one!

Hey Max thank you. I can't wait till next year to be putting it through the paces like you have been doing with your car.

He actually just used the drop base from the original air cleaner assembly.

Almost 8 hours without an update... c'mon already! :waveflag:

Dang Marty, that was a ton of money for those two pieces to chop up! :G-Dub: :confused59: But, the outcome is killer! Fair warning, this idea may find it's way onto a C-10! Credit will be given where due, if it happens! This thing is turning out awesome. Can't wait to see it in Columbus next year! :cheers:

Chad I couldn't agree with you more it was a bunch of money just to cut it up. But the end product was well worth it.

Tomorrow I should have pictures of it painted.

Looks great, the ideas keep coming! Whats next?

Mike

Not to worry I have plenty of idea's.

Pretty cool idea using the K&N air filter top like that.:thumbsup:

Thanks Scott. Now we just have to make sure when we put the new chassis under the car everything needs to be in the exact same place right down to the height and setback. That is sure going to be fun.

2013 10-24 2nd Chance - Optima Battery Cover
www.2ndchancecamaro.com

Good Evening,


Now that we have that trick Billet Battery tray and that ultra reliable Optima battery. Kenny decides last minute that he wants to make
some more cool parts for the underhood. And of course he installed the Ride Tech Fender braces which were the first part I purchased
for this car.

Since he did the battery side you have to do something with the washer tank.

Kenny is going to do a few more things if I can convince him. I want to add a belly pan under the gas tank and down bars under the hood. So most likey Feb or Mar and you are more then welcome to have shot gun.

2013 10-25 2nd Chance - It's all in the Details

Good Morning,

We ordered up a set of cross drilled & vented rotors from Tobin at Kore3 to complete the look on the upgraded brakes.

Upgraded the stock plug wires to MSD

Kenny wasn't feeling the headlight buckets so it painted them but left a small bit of chrome on them. He also installed the headlights from DSE to complete the look.
