Default Autocrossing a orginal 68 Z28

I thought you guys might enjoy checking out these pics of an orignal 68 Z/28 with a little 302 crossram, M22, 12 bolt 4.56 gears!!! Who says that an orginal Z/28 in this day in age can't share the all the fun with pro-touring craze of today!! The pics were taken @ Costa Mesa Goodguys last year & a few shoots on the slalom course

Just read the Camaro Performers article on this car. Sweet. Gotta love the big cam, big compression, cross-ram, and gearing. My kind of car!

That's just plain awesome. How much RPM do you twist that little motor?

That Z reminds me of my last camaro a r/s Z that was britsh racing green,and 24 factory options. Mine would run about 7000rpm and hang on when you dumped the clutch with 4:56 gears and no power steering she was a handful. Thanks for posting brings back good memories.
