Check out Lashway's newest build: "Project BackLASH"
So we here at the shop decided it was time to get into the action and build another shop car that not only kicks ***, but really represents our quality of work and the different services we provide to our customers who are seeking nothing short of the best in performance and fabrication.
We purchased the car from one of our best and most loyal customers. We had previously worked on the vehicle and knew of it's quality and potential, even as a '98. The rest is history
"Project BackLASH"
-1998 Camaro Z28 (Formerly Rob's car, thanks buddy!)
-Original LS1, stock pistons, rods, and crank
-Katech Rod Bolts for added stability and strength at our projected PRM range
-ARP head bolts
-GM MLS gaskets, stock thickness
-Stock 241 heads
-Lashway 3-pc custom pushrods (available to the gen public!)
-IWIS timing chain
-Ported oil pump
-Super Victor Cathedral Port Intake
-Scorpion 2000 cfm throttle plate
-Dual Stage Nitrous Express plate (NP604)
-Monster Stage 5 clutch, 28lb flywheel
-Liberty faceplated T56
-Chromoly 3" driveshaft
-Custom narrowed rear end (thats definately a big secret, gotta come by to see what we're building)
-Custom Wolfe 10-pt chromoly cage, completely assembeled, notched and tig welded at Lashway by Ollie, our Fab Master!
-Wolfe Mini Tub Kit
-VFN Sunoco Style Extended hood (my favorite mod)
-Fresh engine bay paint and hood paint done in house -Wolfe Mini Tubs
-Custom Chromoly Lashway LCA's, relocated of course
-Strang single adj rear coil overs and dbl adj coil overs in front
-BMR Battery relocation tray
-BMR tubular upper and lower control arms
-ABS delete with line lock
-Dzus fittings to hold down that nice freakin hood
-MT ET Slicks, 28"
....and probably a hell of a lot more that I am forgetting.
I will add pics in the morning every chance I can. We are bery busy here, and the threads are hard to keep up with.

Higher end pushrods often time consist of the tube, and then your choice of end which is cryogenically pressed into the end of the tube, like Smith Brothers for example. This feature has many benefits, one being the strength of the end of the rod and how it is manufactured. The steel end is very strong, and the fact that it is cnc machined and not formed helps the end keep it's integrity over thousands of miles. Our salt-bath nitrided 5/16" rods have thicker walls and more carbon in the steel than what most run in their vehicles. This means less deflection and a more stable connection between the lifter and rocker at high RPM.
Our rods are manufactured specifically for us by a reknown valvetrain part manufacturer. We're one of the only shops in the US that carry these rods in stock. For more information, click here:

Probably stock for now as we are on a strict budget. I would like to eventually run aftermarket, lightweight brakes, but like I said

They are qa1 150lb springs- they came with the shocks- depending on the hook and weigt transfer, we may change it up. The car has been lightened though, so it may work.
