Default Procharged 68 camaro

Hey guys, just thought i would drop a few pics on here. I have a 68 Camaro i have had for ten years. I decided to do a forged ls2 d1 procharged swap with a 6 speed. I also decided to lower the car with 3 inch hotchkis springs up front and 3 inch DSE drop leaf springs in the rears. I also added a hotchkis sway bar and did the ls1 brake conversion. Along the way, i also did the common Iroc performance gear box swap. I have a pic of my car before i tore it apart. It has the standard grill but i purchased a billet rs grill and the DSE electric door conversion... thanks for looking

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

More pics. I have a le mans gas cap in store. Also threw in a few more pics of the engine and frame. I did a concept drawing on paint lol . turned out sweet. My girl friend bought me some sequential digitails. Gotta give her some credit... she knows exactly what to get a car guy for christmas lol. Oh yeah there's a pic of my trans am. The day i threw a rod. She is still sitting. Need to find some time to swap the engine, along with building this car.

Everything looks great.

What pro-charger bracket did you use? Is this the universal LS kit offered by pro-charger?
