KirkEvil- 00 Z28 Street/Strip

A 1995 Firebird 3.4L was my first car, which I had to part with when going away to college my freshman year. When I came home for the summer, I got the fbody itch again and found this 2000 Camaro Z28 for sale privately in Toms River, NJ and bought it that day. The previous owner was a middle aged woman that always garage kept it, and had leopard print seat and steering wheel covers and beanie babies on the dash, bone stock. Needless to say its gone through quite a transformation since then.

All modifications on the car were done by myself with the help of a great group of friends. These guys are always willing to help and have kept the race passion alive through the ups and downs of the car. I cant thank them enough.

My goal for the car was to always stay street drivable so that it always keeps my interest. The current trim as it sits may push the threshold of comfortable, but I love driving it. The car has gone a best 1/4 mile of 11.48 @ 121 mph on street tires, and 10.89 @ 124 mph on drag slicks.

There are too many mods to list, so the basics:
Custom Ram Air aka HVAC
FTP 104mm lid, 100mm MAF, FAST 102mm TB, VR Ported FAST 102mm intake
TEA CNC 243 Heads
228/232 .615/.600 111+2LSA
Mezeire EWP, ASP U/D Pulley
1 7/8 ARH LT's, ORY, Cutout, Hooker C/B
Walbro 255, booster, 42lb injectors, billet rails
Full Tubular Suspension, Strange SA front coilovers, Summit Drag rears
Vigilante 4k stall, 4L60E w/ Transgo HD2 kit
PST 3.5" aluminum DS, S60 w/3.73 gears
Lots of stickers for maximum RWHP

Aside from 8008 missing in the race pic I posted, I fail to see anything different

I hate the look of the manta, I would just put a decal inside the scoop or possible try a checkered rally stripe like I used to have on the stock hood.

What if you just did the sides like a cowl hood? You do sweet checkered things though.
