Default 68 Camaro (Project Panther)

New to Lateral G and have already had some great responses. I'm going the "pro touring" route with my 68 SS/RS Camaro that I have owned since highschool (graduated in 81). The car is completely stripped and the body is sitting on a body dolly awaiting install of the DSE mini Tubs, the HTH Truckarm rear suspension, DSE's firewall fill plate and Wayne Due's C5 subframe. I'm hoping to have a stop steer and roll chasis completed by the end of July. I've decided to go with (for now) a 6.0 litre LS1 with Z06 intake, heads etc. etc. and a set of Wes King heads all of which have registered 539hp on the dyno. I'm still on the fence about going with an automatic paddle shift setup or a 6 speed. I'm leaning toward a 6 speed but welcome your comments based on your experiences.

I'll begin posting some pics as things progress.

Thanks,

Mike (Gr8t68)
