I know I know the intake was made in China but I really dig the look and its in my price range. Jeff is running it and had nothing but rave reviews. I wont be racing it or adding power adders so I should be fine.

Rybar 11-06-2015 08:59 PM

The car looks incredible! Of course you know I'm a fan of the look you went with on the car. And don't worry about the intake if that's what your budget allow and you like it then don't sweat what other people think.

awr68 11-06-2015 09:36 PM

Looks killer! Great progress! Keep at it you are getting close!

So what white did you end up going with?

aany001 11-07-2015 09:57 AM

Thanks boys it's a long time coming. I'm gonna burn through a set of tires in a weekend lol. Tony I went with Toyota white code 44. Gotta thank Joe from the Dutch Boys for the tip! It looks real crisp in the sun!!!

The car looks gorgeous! Great job on it. The intake really dresses up the engine bay.

randy 11-08-2015 08:27 PM

thats a lot of hose. I don't like how close it looks to your tailpipes. I used hardline and then a nice 12" line from the hardline to the tank. Another thing i noticed is that you are using the clip style efi connectors. I hard they leak and have caused fires so i went with the new upgraded style.

notice this style

aany001 11-09-2015 04:06 AM

It's not regular hose. It's braided nylon with steel inside the hose. It had to be cut with a cut off wheel just like you would use with regular stainless braided. The tail pipes are a little close but I'm gonna wrap the lines with heat shield wrap and gonna make up a heat shield for the fuel filter. I have been using the push style connectors on GMs for ever and never had an issue. Just figured if GM has used them this long it must be good enough for my application. But thanks for the tip on the other style.

6camaro9 11-09-2015 08:08 AM

I just read thru the entire thread, your car looks amazing and I love the intake. If you dont mind me asking what brand of fuel line did you use and where did you get the clamps for the fuel line? Especially the duel clamps I am getting ready to do my fuel system and I love the looks of yours. Thanks ahead of time.

aany001 11-09-2015 08:26 AM

Thanks for the compliment. I got the fuel line and clamps from torontoturbo.com here local. I'm sure Jason would ship them out. The single clamps are the double clamp just trimmed down for single application. I hope this helps u out.

69hugger 11-09-2015 08:48 AM

Your car looks great! Love the clean look of the gauges. They look perfect in the DSE dash. What are they? Is the tach & speedo between the sizes of 3-34" & 5"?

Bill

aany001 11-09-2015 09:18 AM

The gauges are 4 3/8 and the dash insert is a steel piece I had made up from the 69 nova slightly tweaked to fit my car. The manufacturer performance vehicle works. Tim is a great guy to work with. It's been a few years since they made it for me.

69hugger 11-09-2015 09:36 AM

Thanks for the reply. I was interested in the gauges....whose are they?

aany001 11-09-2015 10:29 AM

The gauges are new vintage USA.

camarodude87 12-09-2015 08:43 PM

Nice build. I was looking at that intake as well. where did you order yours from? Im thinking its better than what I have now on my 6.0L. I have a ls1 intake. Nice car. will be following your build.

aany001 12-10-2015 07:40 PM

Thanks. I really like this intake and have seen it in action. I got mine from Paradise Road Rod and custom. Speak to Tanner he's a great guy to deal with.

Hello all. Last several months have been no different than the last several years. She fought one hell of a fight, and I fought back. I think both the Camaro and I are all the better for it though. Dare I say, I think I'm done? No, but close enough! Gone Tourin'...:thumbsup:

WSSix 06-22-2016 12:10 PM

Looks fantastic! So clean! Great wheel choice too. Enjoy driving the car this summer.

waynieZ 06-22-2016 05:00 PM

SOOOOO Sweet!

Al Moreno 06-22-2016 09:17 PM

DEIGuy38 06-22-2016 10:02 PM

Sheck44 06-23-2016 03:12 AM

Guys, I only live 10 minutes away from Steve, have seen this car during its build numerous times and have seen him struggle, laugh and cry over this car ... after 10 years of building this car Steve deserves a MASSIVE congrats !!!

Well done Steve, she is a beauty !!! I don't know how as a full time mechanic you stuck with it all this time


:king:

tubbed69 06-23-2016 04:01 AM

Steve you did an amazing job,I love everything about your car,the only thing that would have been better is if it was coming to Columbus.I hope you take the time now and enjoy and don't sell it like I did.Congrats buddy job well done and I can't wait to see it in person sometime.

Corey R. 06-23-2016 05:09 AM

Great looking project. Where did you source your fuel line and single/double line clamps from?

Couldn't agree with you more! Been humbled and very fortunate to be around Steve and this build from the early stages. The quintessential pro touring car.
Congrats Steve - you (and the family) deserve it. :trophy-1302:

aany001 06-23-2016 01:32 PM

Hey guys I'm very humbled by the kind words. No words can express how I'm feeling these past few months. I'm giving the car a big push to have it done cause my daughter is graduating junior high next week a asked if I could drive her to the ceremony in the camaro. I couldn't be more proud so I gave it all I got with a lot of help from great friends and family. I just hope it behaves the day of which is next week. Fingers crossed and thanks again for all the compliments.

Steve

DOOM 06-23-2016 03:04 PM

Dave Pratt 06-23-2016 09:47 PM

Steve congrats from the West Coast! She's an absolute beauty...your daughter will be happy for sure...one hell of a job on your part sir!


cheers

You can get the fuel line hold downs from torontoturbo.com

Jimbo1367 06-25-2016 07:48 AM

Steve,
WOW. It took balls to save that car. I'm glad you did. It looks AMAZING!!!

I love the wheels. Nothing can compare to Fiske wheels IMHOI'm glad you ditched the TPI motor and jumped on the LS bandwagon.

Jim I wonder myself some times if I was crazy taking on this car. But I had it out and it works unbelieveable. I can't believe how many people compliment the wheels. First time I laid eyes on the mule I knew I had to have them. Thanks for the kind words.

Jeff I wish we were coming to good guys this year with the cars but next year I wanna make the run and hopefully along side My buddy Joe in the chevelle. Ya I'm gonna keep it and enjoy this one for sure. Took it to a local car last night and the response was overwhelming. This car wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for Touring.com and Lat G and the incredible people I have met on these sites.
I would like to thank everyone for all their help and guidance.
Thanks again!!

Steve
