Well the 33 is on the Hot Rod Power Tour right now, traveling with our motorhome and 2010 camaro. It's slated to compete in the Optima Faceoff event this weekend at the end of the tour. Should be a blast

Here are some pictures before the tour and at the tour:

I agree. Awesome tag.

Are those the 295/40 18 Falkens by chance? Been looking at those and wondered how they'd look on an 11" wheel.

Yup new Falken tires! I think the sizes are 295-35/18 and 335-30/18.

I don't think you went too deep into the motor specs. What type of cam is it and do you have any specs on it you would share ?

I'm curious how rumpy it is, can you share your idle speed and vacuum ?

I think it's a Isky camsaft, not sure of any other detail yet.

The car made it back home safely from the Power Tour and the Optima Ultimate Streetcar qualifying event in Texas. The car placed in the top 5 in the autocross and top 10 in the speed-stop challenge at the optima event. We were very pleased with the results considering we ran the car against z06 corvettes, a GT-R, and even a Lamborghini.

One of our employees filmed the 33 at the Optima event, check it out:

Little bit of an update. The 33 is back from the Motor State Challange, twas a blast. Got a little dirty as you can see

Here's a few pictures we got from Robert McGaffin at the Optima Faceoff event a while ago, some of the best shots we have of the car so far

Great pictures thanks for sharing the build with us.

When you replaced the rack did you just swap the spindles side to side ? (and build new steering arms).
