Default Camaro XV

I purchased this '69 Camaro from a buddy of mine John Poggiolo. He purchased it off Ebay from California. It is a super solid car but did need a pass rear quarter due to damage. The car has been at Sled Alley since May so it is well underway. It is fun to be making parts again.

The Plan
• Thomson 427 supercharged engine
• T-56 D&D Prepared trans
• Full DSE Chassis
• Full Anvil Carbon Fiber Front clip
• Carbon Fiber Brakes with ABS
• Rick Fuel tank with a Vapor Works Controls
• Wider rims front and rear than Red Devil
• Data acquisition
• Better cooling package
• Better weight distribution

Murry Pfaff is working on some renderings. I hope to post them soon.



In John's Garage



In my driveway with my other '69 that I just sold to a GM exec. for his 19 year old son.



The '67 behind the black Camaro is Gordon Rojewski's orginal paint '67. The black pimer Camaro is mine






I hope to get some work done on it over the holidays. It should be a roller by 2013!

Dear lord. You don't stop do you? Lol. So Mayhem has already passed on to the new owner and this is the replacement? This is going to be great as always.

Guys I had an idea of moving the dry sump tank back in the cowl. With some measuring and a cutoff wheel it fits. It all fits inside the fender. Working on getting mass back in the car. I also mounted a C-6 brake booster and master. Matt filled the firewall. I really like the guys at Sled Alley. Top Notch.

So you use the stock c6 brake booster and master? How would this work with the z06 brakes without abs? If you could give us some more info on this. So you used the dse bracket but where did you get your measurements and what are all the part numbers and some feedback. what peddles are these and what would you do to eliminate the sensor on the side of the reservoir?

ABS is a separate module so the MC and booster combination would work just fine like it does in a Z06 when ABS isn't activated.
