How about showing us some of these cars. Pics or links. Its great seeing other cars and projects and helps with ideas. I just finished my project and kind of wish I had something to work on. Only 44 miles on the car and just sorting it out, drives great and cant wait to go for the next cruise.

I'd show mine But its sitting under a blue tarp for now, Looking for ideas.
I did find some nice suspension upgrades cant wait to get her going,Gotta get other projects done and out of the way first.

Mine's a mild pro-touring set-up. I have the hotchkis suspension with Global-west UCA's, Bilstein shocks, 3rd gen power steering box, CE subframe connectors, 245/17's in front, 275/17 in back. I will be upgrading the brakes once I get the funding.

Dennis- are you using drop springs or lowering blocks in the back of your rag top? The car has a nice stance.

Thanks, Hotchkis drop springs no upper pad and I used an extra spacer plate they supply (before the lower pad) when using multi-leaf perches...

That stance is exactly what my wife wants on our Camaro. It is currently old school - up in the back (I have owned it for 60 days). I have the Hotchkis TVS sitting on my garage floor right now.

Would you mind giving me your suspension mods and set up?

Thanks!

Thanks-- as shown their it was on coilovers up front, Vette-brakes 2" drop leafs in the rear with a 4 link on floaters. Now it's coilovers out back.

The front end is a custom upper arm mount setup to get the camber gains right, all the suspension work was done pre 1995, so the kits, etc that are out now didn't exist yet.

Tire sizes there are P215/65r15 front, p255/60r15 rear; 15x7 rims front, 15x8 rims rear.

There is a bit more info in the garage link in my signiture, or if you need any other info, let me know I'm sure I can get it for you.

OK here is mine.

1969 Z/28 made the Pro Touring style.

http://www.protouring.se/files/jans_z28.jpg

Budnik Cobalt Wheels, C4 brakes, Hotchkis TVS kit, Koni, Kumho tires.

At the moment I am putting in an LS1 engine with a T56, the transplant is almost done. It is drivable with the new engine but car needs some interior work to be presentable. Vintage Air compressor should be mounted too.

I just typed this before and it went poof, I had to do it again, strange...Thanks, I built the motor from the bare block up, real happy with the way it turned out. They are Rally seats. I like them but they are not for big guys. The quality is very nice. Most of all they are the right height, thats very important.

Good Lord JJ , nice work, super clean, love the bare bones no nonsense look of your interior. Has this car ever been featured in any magazines ?

Hi there

I personally think this is one of the sickest 69's I've seen in a while. Marquez crew is doing an amazing job

Damn that's sick dude, twin turbo LT1? What's it put to the ground?

The motor is good for 1200+ HP if he wants. All the good stuff; billet crank/rods, etc. It is not an LT1, it's a Brodix aluminum 373 cid small block (destroked 400 basically).

those are "one-offs" from http://www.marquezdesign.com

Hey Jody, you have room in your trailer?

Steve,

Your car looks awesome! Any more pics. I need ideas on my interior.
Power Tour here in 08.

Hey Jody, you have room in your trailer?

Actually yes, but it's not my trailer. We use Concours Transport and he has a 6 car trailer coming up, and we have 5 cars tentatively.

Jody

Protouring **** Yeah!!!

Hey Jody, you have room in your trailer?

Steve...Look at it this way. If they had power tour out here you would just be looking at all the places and cars you have already seen. This way you get to see different parts of the country. I have never been to Ohio or Arkansas.

I've driven RA1's in the rain just fine, there is a reason why they have water grooves in them. What are you basing this info off of? Hearsay?

I've driven RA1's in the rain just fine, there is a reason why they have water grooves in them. What are you basing this info off of? Hearsay?Experience with older race compound tires. Not this model. But wet weather traction is as much compound as tread.

Just saying be careful. I don't want BP to get hurt.

driving in the rain with any 600hp motor is going to be hairy, the tires will work just fine if he has any common sense with the throttle. The difference in compound from a R rated tire to a good street tire isn't all that much that driving in the rain on them is going to be that bad. In fact the R compound tire is softer and stickier and warms up quickly compared to a street tire(which is meant to last longer). The difference is that the blocks on the tire are shorter and there are less rain grooves. I think he'll be just fine

You talk like you don't know me, I'm all about common sense.. lol

The main issue is that tires like mine have a very shallow tread depth and after some hard driving it's even less. There are also less channels, not as few as a NT01, but you get the idea.

How is the R compond tire going to heat up in the rain? You can drive in the rain if you don't act like an idiot. Hell, you could drive on slicks if you went slow enough. I certainly would be in the slow lane if rain came my way though.

They don't heat up in the rain, even more of a reason why they won't be any different than a street tire with moderation. Tires don't heat up in the rain unless you really punish them which you most likely won't be doing anyway when its wet. And that is exactly what I said about the tires, the blocks are shorter(which creates less flex) and less water channels. Basically more rubber patch, but not that much less that using them in the rain is really all that bad. Maybe not on an everyday driver but its not all that serious like some people would lead you to believe. We are talking about the RA1's.

So Steve the real question is are you going to do the powertour with Penny?I know Jody said he had one spot left.:)

So Steve the real question is are you going to do the powertour with Penny?I know Jody said he had one spot left.:)

well, Fred has one open spot out there, but he has to take Stielows car on the way back, so I don't think he has an open spot back (assuming Adam goes).

Yep RA1's.. and I agree with you but they are bad in water. I drove g/28 with the NT01 in some water.. weeeeeee .. lol

cool ride! I didn't know the KB setup would support that much power. Gonna be a lot of moola.

Jody

fixed :)

Yeah about 800rwhp on the 6-rib setup with about 6psi. So the bar min of what it can go to. And yes a lot of money.

Here's mine... Almost done!!! I hope..

wow, hard to believe honestly. 6 psi huh? Which KB is that? I've heard of 760 rwhp from a new LS7 Z06 with twin turbos at about 9-10 psi, and turbos are much more efficient than a KB.

Jody

Well we will see very soon it will be on the dyno in no time. We will start at between 6 and 8 and see where we are but you maybe right it may take more boost to get her done. Either way I will happy with anywhere between 750-800 at the wheels.
I will be sure to post up and let you how it goes.

Good luck Taylor, let us know where you end up. :beers: I had a KB and loved it on my Lightning, but many guys are converting to turbos now. Most are gaining 100+ HP at the same boost level.

Jody

Well thank you and will let you what I think of it when I her finished up.

Tom, I love your car. The stance is perfect!
Where did you get that gas cap?

Tom, I love your car. The stance is perfect!
Where did you get that gas cap?
Thanks. The cap is actually a motorcycle cap from Goodridge. The trunk lock was shaved and the tail panel was customized to make it fit.

Tom,

The car looks great!, did you use any kind of lowering blocks in the back? Im using the 3inch drop leafs from DSE but its still sitting about an inch too high.

Rich

Many many nice cars! :yes:

Yes, DSE 3" drop springs plus 1" block... :yes:

cr8zy68, your car is GORGEOUS! I have done about the same thing with my gas cap. I need to do some mods to it though because the fuel nozzles don't fit in all the way because the turn is too sharp in the trunk.

Thats funny.....I have the same issue. I am running the 3" drop DSE springs and its not low enough for me. Needs at least another 1/2" to 1" drop.

Yeah the 1" block wasn't fun to put in... the u-bolts that came with them were not long enough, so I had to get new ones and the ones I got were 1/2" diameter... They fit, but just barely and the beefier thread doesn't give at all when trying to put them on... I guess I feel better with the bigger bolts though.

That was a pretty simple fab job for the console. The radio area on it was pretty cool, has a GPS/DVD touch screen that comes out of it

that console is awesome

I love the color!!!! True Candy Red tri-coat with Silver base. Is that a Dupont, PPG paint. Please excuse my ignorance. I would like to duplicate it on my chevelle, do you have the numbers and brand?

Thanks

It's a 373 cid destroked (4.120" bore) all aluminum Brodix small block. According to Brodix the motor block and internals would support 2000 hp or so, but the turbos are done by 1200 hp or so.

Just an FYI, no advertising intended, the struts are from Twist Machine.

They look great!!

Well here are some half azz updates on my car. My friend and I have been doing on and off weekend bodywork. It is a slow process but the filler work is 95% done which means primer is coming up next. We put a skim coat on pretty much the entire front end to get it real straight. The hood took a whole lot more than a skim coat to get it straight it was so damn wavy. Probably have 10-15 hours alone in the hood. The pictures don't really show much all that great but thats about all I got right now. I'm hoping to have the car done by next spring or this winter honestly.

BTW this is not my POS house my car is in front of lol

Here is what has been occupying my time in the meanwhile. To say I'm hooked on the track is an understatment. I've already done 5 Trackdays this year with about 5 more scheduled over the summer(not to count last year either). Can't wait to get my car on the track as well, riding my bike has made me a much better driver.

Awesome!

PROTOTYPE28, what type suspension are you running and what size wheels are you using including back spacing?

Soramac: The suspension on the front of this car is all stock other than the 3 way adj. shocks. The rear has a 3" mini tub kit from detroit speed with a 3" drop spring with another 1 inch block (total of 4 inches). The wheels are 17x8 (4.75 bs) in the front with a 235 tire. The rear is 17x11 (5 inch bs) with a 335 tire.

PROTOTYPE28, how did you lower the front?

PROTOTYPE28, another question, what tyres are you running ?

I am doing almost exactly the same with my 68. 632 BBC DSE minitubbed, 11" on rear and 7" on front rims and am looking for exactly the same stance.

Your car is awesome by the way.

Soramac, I am running a street radial, both front and rear. The fronts are 235's and the rears are 335's. The previous owner said i could run a 245 on the front without rubbing. The front suspension is all stock other than the 3 way adj. shocks.

PROTOTYPE28 thanks, something had to been done to the front it sets lower than stock, maybe lowered spindles or cut springs, anyway its a very nice car.

Prototype28,
What rear end are you running?? What width??
Thanks

skeeters65,
I am running a Moser 12 bolt rear end with c-clip eliminators. The rear has been mini tubed with detroit speeds mini tube kit. I am at work so I do not have the correct dimensions for the rear end. :confused: SORRY

is it standard length or has it been narrowed??

Standard length!

Very nice work, what is the color? Thanks

Nice job Kelvin - so far your's is my personal favorite (all very nice though) primarily due to the color combo and tire/wheel pkg & stance. It just looks mean and stylish w/o looking like you modified just for the sake of modifying. I like it! :yes:

Whoops should have said prototype28 and not Kelvin - looks like Kelvin likes it too. Again, noyce!!!!

Thanks Dayton, we mixed a custom color for the camaro so I don't have a code. I could give you the "ingredients" if you can get someone to mix it. It was Sikkens brand paint by the way.

The repairs to Penny are done! :woot:

After 5 months and $35,000 the Camaro is officially out of paint jail. The crew at BOS did an amazing job on her and she's better than before the accident. Since she's SEMA bound they spent over 60 hrs color sanding and buffing the paint and trust me that the pics don't do the color or the finish justice.

I really want to thank Best Of Show for fixing my car so well and for dealing with the insurance company to make sure it got fixed right.

All I need to do is finish the interior, get an alignment and add on the ATS carbon fiber spoiler.

Here she is.. Bad Penney Version 1.2 (let's hope there's not a 1.3.. lol)

http://picsorban.com/upload/donepenny2.jpg

http://picsorban.com/upload/donepenny.jpg

Still have an elec gremlin in the brake lights, but the car runs great. Tomorrow she heads to the interior shop. By the way, this is the how the car sits (ride heigth).

The BOS crew got her all loaded on the trailer tonight. :woot:

penny looks great

show-off!:D Looks great Steve, see ya in a couple weeks.

Wow steve those shots of that car look unreal, you really pulled it off(doesn't hurt that they are photoshopped hehe) Regardless that car "looks" killer. Is it very functional that low? If so it looks really good, I do notice that your lower control arms are pointing "up", not sure really how big of a deal it is, but from what I've gathered you're "supposed" to have them level with the ground at ride height. Something about having the correct motion ratio or something. Might wanna look into it, also do you have the ATS headers, man I'm jealous, I would KILL for some custom try-y's for my firebird, the ground clearance right now is just ridiculous, gonna kill the exhaust on driveways since the wheels are spaced so far apart(front to back) on the second gens.

Really though, I'm not into the appearance department as "much" as I used too, I value other things more, but that car looks freakin badass......and it appears if it is setup to go all out, if you think you have enough fur on your peaches. Although its going to be a shame when it gets all biffed up from rocks and off road/track excursions lol.\

That rear shot might have to be my new wallpaper

The only photoshopping was to desaturate the yellow from the dang skylights in the shop.

Yea, technically they should be level but they aren't far off that now and the car is getting a super killer alignment next week. I will take whatever advice they offer on it (they work on lots of C5/6 track cars).

The headers arn't ATS units, I couldn't afford those. These are made by 21st century street machines subframe. They are 1 7/8 stepped long tubes though. I have gobs of ground clearance. More than I would have expected.

As for appearance stuff. I like to think I made it look nice without going too "show car". I hope the end result is that it has an OEM/industrial look.. like it could have came that way. There really isn't much on the car that isn't functional or that is detremental to performance.

If I get rock chips it's not like they don't make paint any longer. I've xpeled the areas behind the tires to help. The rest is on its own.

How's your ride coming along? Shoot me a pic and I will put it in the under construction section. Not enough cool birds in there. ;)

Cool, all I was implying about the look thing, is that I know you were looking to do more of a streetfighter deal or whatever you call it. IIRC the original intention was to make something bare-bones that you could beat on with less worries. I'd say you stil managed to make something really nice and shiny. Nothing wrong with that, it came out really nice. the paint looks good to, nice and flat you can tell they spent the time to really color sand it out.

Regardless of all the crap I'm giving you about it being almost "too" nice, it came out really nice dude, I still think the frontend that low is going to give away some function(won't wheels hit the inner fenders? So what events are you scheduled for? I'm betting you're gonna be realy reserved about riding it around on the public streets!

Now that the summer is over and I'm gonna put the bike up for the winter and stop spending $$$$ on trackdays and related crap my main priority is to get my car going. %90 of the bodywork is done, but the car needs to be primed, panels aligned, and a bunch of other damn things before it can be painted. Not to mention I'm gonna pull the motor AGAIN due to oil leaks. I'm not too fond of the 1 piece oil pan gasket(felpro) I also have a leak down tester coming in the mail to check the rings to see if they are leaking, causing blowby, and making the seals leak.

Anywayz I should have some updates soon, there aren't really any great pics I have of it right now, I'll see what I can put together but don't hold your breath lol.

Oh BTW what kind of tire pressures do they suggest for those tires? Those look like the new tread pattern tire, wondering if they changed anything else from the previous ones. RA1's right?

Well, it really is "bare bones".. no heat, AC, stereo.. etc.. I never set out to build a Rat-PT-car. lol - To me StreetFighter means the car is "purposeful" and not necessarily beat up or rough looking. I will know more when I scale the car and get her on the road, that's the true test. Sure runs nice though.

Wheels don't hit at all and I have no rubbing even when making the tightest turn possible. I had the Forgeline wheels rebuilt twice to get this. The only reason the paint is this nice is that the idiot hit me and they painted the whole car.

PT.com is putting on some sort of open track day. and I will drive the crap out of it on the streets. Might try to avoid the barrio and craptastic bad traffic freeway areas but other than that I drive my junk. I feel a car can be "pretty" and functional. The car isn't real blingy, just very clean and (I fee) well sorted out. It's certainly low on the frills.

As for your car, get some killer shots when you can and I will give you some ink, I won't even say anything nasty about you ;) lol :p

Oh BTW what kind of tire pressures do they suggest for those tires? Those look like the new tread pattern tire, wondering if they changed anything else from the previous ones. RA1's right?

Good question. I haven't even checked yet. They have 35 in them now. Yea, these are the newer version of the RA1s, but I don't think the RA1s are going away.

I have some R888s for sale. 265s and 275s :)

Watch as it goes from this

Well, it really is "bare bones".. no heat, AC, stereo.. etc.. I never set out to build a Rat-PT-car. lol - To me StreetFighter means the car is "purposeful" and not necessarily beat up or rough looking. I will know more when I scale the car and get her on the road, that's the true test. Sure runs nice though.

Wheels don't hit at all and I have no rubbing even when making the tightest turn possible. I had the Forgeline wheels rebuilt twice to get this. The only reason the paint is this nice is that the idiot hit me and they painted the whole car.

PT.com is putting on some sort of open track day. and I will drive the crap out of it on the streets. Might try to avoid the barrio and craptastic bad traffic freeway areas but other than that I drive my junk. I feel a car can be "pretty" and functional. The car isn't real blingy, just very clean and (I fee) well sorted out. It's certainly low on the frills.

As for your car, get some killer shots when you can and I will give you some ink, I won't even say anything nasty about you ;) lol :p

You should do a good track school in that car, a 2 day event and do a complete write-up about it in the magazine. I know you're the tech editor but still. First part could be about how to prepare mechanicall, and how to prepare mentally. Then you could do the track school and relate everything you learned or something along those lines. Autocrosses and such are pretty boring IMO for spectators, all they see are cars and cones.

Oh and for the record, my car is pretty damn blinged out as well if not way more lol, so don't listen to mr hypocrit over here lol. I was gonna do the body color innerfenders as well but damn it I'm just gonna do them black instead. I'm a little dissapointed that I did everything gloss black now, If I could do it again it would of all been satin black under the hood.

Oh (2nd time) I'm gonna get some black anodized 2nd gen billet hood hinges, yes I told everyone they were posers for thinking about spending that kind of coin, but man are they nice!

Are the coil packs moved? How?

Also, did you go speed density?

Edit1: Mr Rupp, these questions may apply to you too, now that I look at more pics, LOL.

Edit2: Did you guys use these? http://www.katechengines.com/street_performance/engine_parts_detail.php?id=4

They sell coil relocation packs if you don't want them on your valve covers. They even have valve covers that hide the coils all together.


Rich

how'd you form that rear tail pan like that for the exhaust. Aside from the exhaust, it looks killer.

NICKO thats gonna be nice. It looks pretty hot right now.

thanks , the only part of sheetmetal that has not been replaced is the rear window filler panel, http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff71/NICKOSTAS/MYPICS030.jpg

Wing windows were removed for body working purpose, and he custom made that valance from scratch using 69 camaro fog lamps.

Coming along great Scott. What are the plans with the interior?

Thanks. The interior has Marquez Design door panels, Recaro seats, Autokraft 6 point cage, DSE dash/instrument carrier, Budnik Steering wheel, AutoMeter gauges, Alpine head unit, and MODO Innovations pedals.

Here's a pic of it assembled but not finished. The electronics between the seats are just sitting there when I took the pic, that's not where they're going. Oh, and those aren't the right seats, either. lol

Aloha- We are getting the final plumbing and parts buttoned up on this 69 Camaro for a gentlemen in the Hawaii Islands. We installed our Chicane-LM front suspension, DSE mini tubs with Global West L2 CAT5 leaf springs, DSE subframe connectors, Vintage Air compac II, LS6 from a 2002 Corvette Z06 converted to a carb, and backed by a viper internal T56 six speed.

The car has 18" Budnik Laterals on it, and C5 front and rear brakes. Here are some quick pics we took last night. We can get pics of anything else, just ask for them, and well post them.
