Sorry for the lack of updates, but yes we were able to finally debut this car in Pleasanton last weekend with about 1.5 miles on it! Although more geared towards the street rod crowd, we had a great response and its always nice seeing everyone and meeting new friends. Heres a few shots:

Looks amazing! Nice to see it in person and chat with you Friday.

Ditto what he said - great looking car right there

Very nice, Steve! The interior looks great.

Thanks guys! Appreciate the compliments. We still have a few things to wrap up, specifically a good tune. But initial indicators are...its fast! We will be dyno testing soon but it will be for our original intention, driveability and NOT peak horsepower. That seems to be every ones first question " How muck horsepower? Too many You tube videos I guess. Contrary to belief, you really don't want 1500 hp on the street.
We are entered in the Fontana USCA event just to have a good time and stretch its legs a bit so we need to get busy preparing for that. We scaled it and it came in at 3600 lbs 52/48, not too bad considering all of the water to air plumbing up front. Ive been spending a lot of time going fast in a straight line with my drag car lately so I'll need to remember to turn the wheel!:drive:

Car is beautiful. I liked the color on the original rendering, but I love the white better. Good job! :headspin: :headspin:

WOW! Fantastic build! Love all the details and touches. And really appreciate it when a builder can 'pull off' white! You hit it out of the park with this one for sure!!!

Amazing car, very clean for how much has been done. Do you have any more pictures of how the spoiler was built? I love that it's seamlessly built into the rear of the car.

This is my favorite camaro ever. What type of paint did you use for the grey? I haven't been able to find a flat/matte paint that has worked well for me.

I absolutely love this car! beautiful. In sea of camaros this one shine bright.

Thanks guys, we decided to go white awhile back when we decided against wrapping

Yes a ton of fab for sure! The spoiler should be covered earlier in the thread, thx


Wow Thanks! My painter uses PPG products, not sure of the exact clear though

Looks incredible Steve. Nice to hear you are gonna run her hard at Fontana.

Love the car! Great work

Well, I don't know about running "hard" just have some fun and try not to ruin a car I cant afford! More of a test session for myself and the car.
Thanks, Im fortunate to be surrounded by a great group of guys (and gals) who share the same passion.

Steve maybe you missed this (or did I?) and hope you don't mind me asking again?

Thanks in advance,

Ron

I would be interested in one too. thanks, Lee

We have a press tool we made for that and can probably make a couple. Let me look into it and I'll let you guys know.
Thanks

Thanks Steve!

Thanks Steve, appreciate you looking into it. Anything that I would attempt to make surely won't look as good as yours!

A few updates: A couple weeks ago we headed down south and stopped by Turnkey Engine Supply for some tuning and dyno time. Unfortunately their dyno would not physically accommodate the car due to it being an above ground type. But we did get some good seat of the pants dyno time in! Im very happy with this small twin turbo combination it seems to be very drivable and when in the mood, light the tires off in 4 gear. I would guess at least 750 Rwhp. We then left the next day for a car show at K&N headquarters in Riverside, got teched and "stickered up" for the USCA event on Sat in Fontana. At this point we had never hung a turn in the car at any kind of speed and had only 80 miles on the clock. Fortunately, we were able to do some "testing" on the grounds at Fontana on Friday evening.(and even a couple good drag races with Kyle Tucker!) Had a blast on Sat. were able to sort out some brake bias adjustments, got some good info on some spring rate changes to be made and got a little seat time. Overall very happy with its performance. The topper was the first place in the Lingenfelter Design and Engineering award category. There was some very nice cars so that was quite an honor!
Our next stop is SEMA, we have once again partnered up with K&N and will be displaying in their booth.

Do you sale the instrument panel? One of the best ever seen or is that all custom?

I agree sweet dash! Awesome job on the whole car.

I'm going to say it again, this car looks amazing in person!

I can believe that!

Car looks fantastic Steve... Like all the others you've done.

Let's hope for a golden ticket so we can see you running her over the weekend.

See you in a couple weeks at SEMA.

That is custom designed by EBMC using Dakota Digital VHX1100 gauge package and 3d printed here at the shop. We will producing that though, and should be available after the first of the year. Thanks



Thanks guys, were looking forward to seeing some of you at SEMA and Lat G party!

wow just wow. This car is perfect. Great job.

Do you have the reverse lights hidden?

You know i wonder if theres a license plate light that has two functions. Light beam for plate light only and when put into reverse its even brighter and acts as a reverse light

We have been working hard on that dash and this one is the first one 3D printed here in house. We have made a couple revisions and will have available hopefully in Feb.
Thanks guys, Randy there are no reverse lights. good idea on license light/ reverse but usually they are hidden and probably wouldn't provide the right angle though.



So now that the dust has settled after SEMA we can update a bit. We had an excellent spot in the K&N booth in Central hall, got some great press and on Weds got a golden ticket for OUSCI placed on the dash. Thursday morning we were very proud to have been chosen for a GM design award for best underhood. A huge honor considering the selection of cars there!

Ousci was a great experience although quite a bit different than when we last participated in 2012. Most cars this time around seemed more purpose built for this event and we felt we didn't really "fit in". Not to make excuses for my rookie driving, but I was very conservative in the speed stop and hot lap challenge as I could have done some serious damage in any off road excursions. We knew we weren't going to pose a threat to the "top dogs" so why take the risk in a car I don't own!
In a car that is more setup for street performance, comfort and less than optimum tires (Nitto Invo's!), we accomplished what we wanted and finished 3rd in the design and engineering segment. Overall the car feels very good and is probably the most quiet, smooth running all around package pro touring car we have built. Not to mention it hauls butt too!

Stunning! Congrats on a well deserved award!

Steve the car was stunning on the floor and respectable on the track. Well done Sir. :thumbsup:

That engine bay is as good as it gets!

what mirrors are those?

Awesome shots!
Thx!

Those mirrors are made by a company called "Race Mirrors"

What are the tanks on the passenger side of the firewall for?

Car looks amazing.

That's where it stores the awesomness it produces. Releasing it all at once could be devastating to man kind. Pretty sure there is a filter setup to eliminate most of this.

:flag2:

Car turned out great Steve! Congrats.

The three tanks are: oil seperators for each bank of cylinders and a coolant overflow in the middle

Lol, your close!


Thanks Rob!
