Performance, Drivability, Reliability. What a project!
When I first bought this Camaro in summer of 2001, I had no idea that it would have gone as far as it has. I simply wanted a 8.50 ET in the 8th car that I could drive everyday. But, these LS1 cars and their performance capabilities are truly addictive. All the performance you might desire, yet excellent road manners and reliability. Is it expensive to build up a late model car like this? Oh yeah! But, if it is what you want, you gotta pay if you wanna play. So, here is a complete specifications list on my car and all of its current modifications and tweaks.
Take a look at how much my intended "8.50 ET daily driver" has advanced:
Current times on motor 7.63 with a 1.51 sixty foot
