Speed Tech has jumped on board and is going to make my Camaro that much better by providing a Subframe with all the bells and whistles!!

Im so stoked about this!!

Once the subframe arrives... we are going to do a full documentary on the "switch out" from my stock frame... to the new Speed Tech frame. Everything from the tear down... the swap.... to the reassemble.
Im thinking it would be cool to have here somewhere on the site so someone can see exactly what it entails to make the swap. (at least for a LS and T56)

The subframe should be to me 3-4 weeks... then a couple few days for the swap...

Big thanks to Roger over at Speed Tech!!

That's totally banging for sure!!! Sweet hook up nice looking frame. Couple days for the swap... lets time that ok?

We planned on doing it in 3 days....:unibrow:

But now.... since we are going to do such a thorough documentary... it will probably take longer. Im pretty excited though.

ya but.... you'll need what? New brakes, new wheels (wider!), brake lines re done, every thing else that attaches to the front frame re done or modified... How about shocks? Need some new double adjustable ones for that new frame and then you have to match the back ones. I think your list will grow, from more then just swapping front frames.

Nope.... the wheels and brakes will just mount right up. Only a small portion of the brake line will need to be changed... Shocks are coming on the subframe.... thats the beauty of this Speed Tech frame.

Plan is... drop the current frame from the body with engine and all that still on it. Then just lift the motor and put it on the new frame... swap whatever needs to be swapped... then drop the body down on the newly assembled Speed Tech frame. It will be a lot of work.... but this is the fun stuff. Maybe.. just maybe i'll need to change a section of the exhaust...

We'll see... i guess... lol.

But ... now you 'can' get wider wheels! So you kind of have too! Yep three days we'll see.

I take it your not swapping spindles if your keeping the same brakes?

By the way... the rear axle stopped leaking on its own............
