I'm running a 383 stroked SBC with MSD throttle body EFI, T56 Magnum, DSE subframe, Chassisworks canted 4 link with 9" Moser floater, Corvette C6 Z06 brakes, AFCO double adjustable coilovers at all four corners all riding on Forgeline 18x10 275s front and 18x12 335s rear. The car handles the street like a modern sports car and I just dial up the shocks a few clicks and it is ready for track days or autocross. I have a little over 25000 miles on the car since completing the build in April 2012. A proper Pro-Touring build, in this case a 1st gen Camaro, is far more street capable than the car was stock.

I love that car.
