A 67 Camaro @ Ironworks??????

I'm using the DSE control arms and QA1 up front with the G-bar in the rear.
Rodger modified the G-bar to aquire this stance.

Rich, what exactly had to be modified on the G-bar?

[rich-allen]

They moved the connection point of the upper shock mount to allow the car to sit lower and allow for a wide tire.

Hey Rich, nice project. Great shop you have taken it to.

Please post some motor specs.

[rich-allen]

LS2 Crate (stock displacement)
Stock crank (reworked)
Jesel rockers, push rods and lifters
Comp cams custom grind
AFR mongoose heads (worked)

As it sits, this motor will be +-600 HP (flywheel)
I figure the procharger will add another 150 - 200 HP.

I'm using the stock rods and pistons..... I hate to send it out to have new pistons installed. What do you think?

Rich,
Keep the boost set around 5-7 psi...you should be just fine. Do you plan on taking the car to a track day? I will be watching this build.

I posted a bunch more pics on my shop website today. I will continue doing so for the next few weeks as the build goes on. Hopefully

If you are gonna run a Procharger, don't you want to be able to put out more than 5-7 lbs of boost? I assume the is custom ground for the supercharger?

What are those stock rods and pistons good for as far as hp? I would figure 750-800 hp would be very dangerous.

Sounds like an awesome motor build that's for sure!

[rich-allen]

I need to make a decision right now, if I upgrade the pistons and rods then I will upgrade tyhe supercharger to the D1SC.

I think 600+ is optimistic.

I had a stock LS2, fast 90 intake, AFR 205 heads and a 230/232 (112LSA) 0 -- this combo made 572hp.

Your stock bottom end should be fine at that level, I beat the crap out of mine. Now with the boost I'm not as sure. Your LS2 is already at 10.8ish to 1 so you can't go much with boost on the stock hyper pistons.

I know a procharger is sexy for for less $$ you could just stroke the LS2 with a nice forged assembly. Would make almost as much power and entail less install drama.

By the way... nice ride!
