Rebuilt my 98 Camaro

So in the beginning of August I spun a rod bearing in my Camaro. I brought the car to EFX for the rebuild. During the rebuild we decided to swap the rear for a Hawks 8.8. Ported LS6 heads and a bigger cam. Added a new stronger clutch. Finally the Camaro is complete. Car layer down an impressive 416/391 on their mustang dyno. I could be happier with the car and it means a lot to be back on the road. The car started its life as a project for my father and I to build. Unfortunately he passed in March to cancer and was not able to see it now. I couldn't thank EFX enough for helping me with this journey. I love there car and it reminds me of my father every time I drive it.

Seeing good things continuously rolling out of EFX makes me glad we have them as a sponsor. Congrats on your next chapter with your car. Sorry to hear about your father. As a car guy though, I'm sure he'd be happy with the direction you're taking the car. Congrats on the stout numbers!

Yeah I saw your numbers. Definitely impressed with it being cam only.

Hopefully I can get it to the track soon
