Default 1972 Camaro Procharged LS1/T-56 17 year old kid

my name is Joe. I'm building a 1972 Camaro with a drivetrain out of a 2004 GTO with a procharger setup. I'm a senior in high school and I work 40 hours a week at a local gas station to afford paying for this car. I'm kind of midway with the car so I'll try and put up as many old pics as I have so everyone knows what's going on. I've had the car since I was in the 8th grade and I paid for everything myself. The car is being built in pro-touring style and I plan on taking it on the track as much as I can. I found the car from my father's friend who has had it since it was new (have pictures of the car new) which he took apart from the start and was going to make it into a race car. He took it all apart, painted it and that's where she sat since 1978 to 2006. The car has 22,000 original miles and is an original SuperSport. The body didn't have one spec of rust and the car is all original panels
Lists of Mods:
LS1 Procharged and Intercooled
Edelbrock Long Tube Retro Headers - edit going to put a full stainless header and exhaust set up in now due to bad fitment
T-56 GMM Short Throw shifter
Hotchkis TVS System
Global West Upper and Lower Tubuler Control Arms
AGR 12:1 Ration Steering Box
DSE Subframe Connectors (not installed yet)
DSE Solid Body Mounts
Moser 9 Inch Ford Rearend
Vintage Air Unit
Power Windows
Factory Tilt Column
Fesler Billet Hood Hinges
that's all I can remember for now

In the next few months I'm hopeing to install the fuel system, brakes, and have all the wiring done. My goals are August for it to be running and September driving it to the body shop for paint. I will try and keep the thread as updated as possible. I am running into problems with my headers hitting my frame so this weeks plan is getting those in as making a crossmember at school. Then I will be moving on to the front of the motor.

Pictures ( I tried getting them as in past to present order the best that I could).
