Brian, would you be willing to share the build specs of your engine? Very nice numbers (611hp, 538tq)
The photo shows how the car was not handling the way we wanted it to. It is much better now.

Here is the information on the engine. Mast Motorsports built it. It is the 416 SS

I picked up the Camaro from K&N yesterday. They did a great job building a custom intake for my car. They got 16+ hp and 16+ ft lbs more than my previous setup.

That intake looks nice and sounds like it is functional to boot. This turned out to be my favorite second gen Camaro. Gives me something to shoot for with my Firebird.

Thanks for the info on the engine.

Now, could you post some pics of that exhaust setup. I noticed that it seems to be poking out of the bottom of the rear quarter in front of the driver's rear tire. Pretty slick setup.

It is now official so I can let the cat out of the bag. I am the driver and my Camaro the car for Wilwood Disc Brakes entry for this years Optima Ultimate Street Car Invitional. I am looking forward to working with Wilwood in the next few months on getting the Camaro ready for this years very competitive event.








This is going to be fun!

Well, now I feel like an idiot. Thanks for the link. Very cool way to do it. I don't think I'll be able to to it, but you have inspired me to start on my project 78Z.
