[6spdg37s]

So I always wanted an f-body car but never found "the one" until MDW 2015. 2 miles from my house 1 owner pewter 2001 Camaro SS 56k miles 6mt bone stock. scooped it up for 6,300 bucks

The Day I brought it home

then got it tinted and detailed:

then the bolt-on fun began :

threw in 4.10 gears (knowing that the rear would blow eventually at the track)

-1-7/8 TSP Long Tube Headers
-TSP 3" Catless Y-pipe
-SLP Loudmouth 1
-SLP lid
-Blackwing air filter
-SLP Smooth Bellow
-SSRA Ram Air
-Factory PS cooler delete and installed a new PS cooler
-Poly motor Mounts
-Poly Trans Mounts
-SLP Line Lock
-Raptor Mini LED shift light
-Moser (Spohn) 9" rear with 35 spline axles and spool, 4.30 gears, LCA relocation brackets
-Spohn Tubular Lower Control Arms
-Pro 5.0 Short throw shifter w/ WS6 store short stick / Hurst knob
-Kenwood Double din HU
-Kee Audio Stage 2 speakers


Cosmetic wise:
-8k Low beam HID
-3k Fog HID
-20% tint all around

at the track I run a 255/50/16 MT ET street on a 16" z28 rim

After the bolt ons (minus the rear end)

Sent the car down to Dave@EFXtuning where he managed to put down 349WHP/359WTQ with the car.

My best time with the car so far is 12.1 before my rear started acting up

ESc5nHYOMWM

This spring/summer hoping to do a cam only package speced out by Dave@EFX

So needless to say this car came out great thus far...

the only change I am making right now is going from SLP LM1 to Magnaflow cat back.

Once again I need to thank my boy Joe at Rago Auto Care and Dave@EFX for all the help

[Featherburner]

Nice progress. What kind of 60' are you cutting and what's the mph in the 1/4?

[Blackbirdws6]

Very clean!

[6spdg37s]

Nice progress. What kind of 60' are you cutting and what's the mph in the 1/4?

1.74 60' and 112-113 trap... this was in not such great air though.

With the Line lock setup now, the 9" and 2 step I hope to leave higher and hook better and cut it down to below 1.7 and hoping to break 12 before I do any cam work.

I also had no short shifter when I was racing those long throws prob cost me some time and my 12.1 pass my master cylinder was going bad so I was loosing my clutch plus the rear was starting to blow up...

[MDSheds_SS]

Hey man, I'd check out MYfirstZ post in the classified, he's looking to sell his short arm torque or trade for a trans mount. If your gonna race your car the short arm is the way to go. Just a heads up tho, everyone has there own plan.

[6spdg37s]

torque arm , qa 1 shocks, clutch/trans stuff and driveshaft loop are all installed been drivin the car around

[6spdg37s]

Loving this clutch !

[Blackbirdws6]

When are you getting it back to the track?

[MDSheds_SS]

I'm heading down to etown tonight. Should be some good air temps when the sun goes down.

[xrelapse13]

Nice car man, how do you like the Kee Audio Speakers?

[6spdg37s]

When are you getting it back to the track?

hopefully next weds. I was at the track tonight but didnt run it obviously.

[xrelapse13]

the kee is good tho dont get me wrong im happy with it

i just wish i thought it out better

[6spdg37s]

Got about 250 on the clutch now for break-in and I am really happy with it so far.

[6spdg37s]

So the cam is going in in about 2 weeks. 242/248 - .608/.612 - 110 LSA spec
usual hardened pushrods, valve springs, C5R timing chain, etc etc;
255 Walbro FP, 42 LB DW injectors, ASP pulley kit.

this winter I want to get a nice wheel setup. Spring I want to get the paint all touched up (provided I haven't bought other **** which requires the garage) and the car will be a done deal.

[MDSheds_SS]

I have a bunch of different wheels for you. Ask before you go spend money on new stuff. I keep my stuff fairly clean bud.

[6spdg37s]

cam is in. trunion kit and such is being finished up

[Blackbirdws6]

What kind of power bump are you expecting?

[6spdg37s]

What kind of power bump are you expecting?

hoping to be at 4-420whp between the cam and the ASP pulley kit we shall see my boy dave at EFX is actually doing the work, havent had enough time to do it so since he tunes it anyway I had him do the work as well.

Can't wait to see what numbers you get. Dave is doing my ported 243s. Hoping to get a good bump.

[6spdg37s]

looks like the numbers are 401WHP/368WTQ

[jeff wilson]

That'll get you in the 11's In this stinky heat

[6spdg37s]

That'll get you in the 11's In this stinky heat
yup hopefully low 11s come colder weather.

In this process I also sorted out a few other issues that were keeping me from breaking the 12.0 mark previously.

[crb1585]

Wow great numbers. Dave is the man!

[6spdg37s]

finally broke into the 11s tonight on my worn 26" MT ET street radial

[NJ Torque]

Seen it on insta.....congrats

[Blackbirdws6]

Congrats on the new best. What is your ultimate goal?

[6spdg37s]

Well I think on a 28" radial or slick with cool October / November weather I could do 11.5

Not sure I am not doing the 28 till spring tho so well c what happens on this 26"

[6spdg37s]

went 11.993 on the bald 26. just put on a 28x9x15 slick today havent ran it yet.
