That gold '68, is that a member here or anything you know of? Mine was originally gold and that sort of makes me think...

I'd like to see some more shots of it.

Your car? x10

He's a buddy of mine, I don't think he's a member. I can see if the paint is orig but it has ralley and hockey stripes so not sure.

There's a few more photos here otherwise I only have the ones in the orig link I posted:

Yeah, I used to think I could never go back to gold... key words, "used to"...

That is one of the nicest looking gold Camaros I have ever seen. TwistMachine has another but I really like the nostalgic looking stripes on your buddies.

Thanks for sharing those.

We'll winter mods have begun.

She's off to get a new heart put in. Swapping in the HKE Forged 383 shortblock and putting my top end on it. Will have a stock LS1 complete motor and my Texas Speed cam for sale soon.

Been very happy with the results from Patrick G and Geoff at EPS Engine Power Systems so they spec'd me a new cam for the 383:

235/242 .638/.615 113 LSA

Last time the little 346 that could was run:







Off to the shop





346 is already out next day:

Way to go Ry! You will enjoy the 383. Smart approach too. Is your fuel system up to the task?

Default Nice

The cam they have specked for you, is it a good street cam, and what heads intake will you be using, 500 RWHP thats pretty stout for a 383, and could you post up all the info on the motor as well. I might be going that way also, I have a 383 block for my 69 that came with it, nothing special just two bolt main, LS not in the picture rite now.. for my project. Thanks Keith
