Smile Black '68 Camaro 502 Ram Jet XFI NOS

Howdy,
I'm Micah, 29 Yrs. old, from North Mississippi. I purchased my Dream Car (1968 Camaro RS SS Black/Black) from my boss. This was 6 years ago. The car was in Great Original shape and I replaced the 327 for My 383 which was setup for Draggin with NOS. I kept the car original but the drivetrain and stance. I actually went back to Chrome Rally's (Backspaced accordingly).
After my HOT small block stroker played out, Dad gave me his Brand New still in crate 502 Ram Jet!!! GO DAD!!! Well, I had just purchased my FAST XFI, harness, and Dash/Data Logger for my small block. so I just took all the GM stuff off of the Ram Jet and put the XFI harness on. I run a TH-350 with a Turbo Action shift kit with a lower first gear, and I run Type-F tranny fluid for harder shifts.
I just got all the kinks worked out and put on my tires...MT Drag Radials 275/50/15's. I am needing Tubs for much wider tires, Rollcage, etc. Then I will finish my interior. 3 Stages of NOS are in the works. as well as Shockwave Air Ride system which is in the Trunk.
Hopefully my big 10 bolt will last awhile until I can afford that Fab9 rearend.
I also have a narrowed Rick's Hot Rod shop stainless fuel tank with Aeromotive pump,fileter in tank!

The reason this is a Project is I have to do major modifications to get the Grip I desire, and I won't stop until this Big Block has forced induction! (Do You know anyone who makes manifolds for twin turbo Big Block Chevy's?)
I also need to take the vinyl top off and make it a Slick top...rusting.
I will never be through with this car, but in the mean time, I will be kicking mustang tail around town! If ya know what I mean.
It's just so satisfing when you can drive the machine you work on around and have some fun!

quite a project you have there, welcome to the site. You'll probably have to custom make the turbo setup, don't know of a set for a big block.
