Default New to the forum... Thought i'd introduce myself and my twin turbo 69 Camaro. LS mutt

I have used this web site quit a bit during my build... and thought i should register and be apart of it. Here is my car, build sheet, some pics and a some video clips.

I call it a "Custom LS" basically (was) the 6.0 truck block. Now its a 408. It has Dart Pro 1 heads...win Bullseye Power 66 mill turbo's
custom ASP turbo kit air/air intercooler
Tranzilla T56 6 speed (Viper internals)
DSE 4 link rear
Speedtech Sub Frame with high clearance control arms
Rack @ pinion
Custom IForged wheels
Nitto tires 335/30/19, 285/35/18 (7 inch lip)NT05's
Cobra Missano Race seats with full Carbon fiber backs
carbon fiber steering column
FULL Marquez Design interior(door panels, head liner, center consule, dash, guage bezel, ect)
Custom Marquez design "3D" Taillights, Door strikers, door vents, gas trunk hinges, Flush front bumper...ect.
Fast fuel injection with 7 inch LCD touch screen "in dash" computer
Ricks gas tank with twin A 1000 fuel pumps (inside the tank)
DSE Subframe connectors
DSE mini tub'd with 3 inch extensions
Willwood big brake kit front and rear
Marquez design lower front Valence
Custom ASP rear diffuser set up
Custom ASP front spoiler
Custom ASP center exit exhaust
Custom ASP front and rear fender flares
Custom ASP rear quarter
Custom ASP rear spoiler
Custom ASP turbo headers

All the body mods are done from sheet metal.
The car was fully restored.. then the work began. We RUSHED the final months to get it to SEMA last year. It made it... the car got "2nd best" at SEMA from WEb Rides. Pretty tight.

On low boost (8 lbs) she put down 800rwhp...11lbs of boost brings just over 900rwhp. i have only been driving it on low boost/med... but will bump it up this summer sometime. I only run it on pump gas.. as she is a highway runner. 3.55 gears. We are expecting to run 14psi on pump.
Here's some photo's and some video links.

Thanks man.... no price tag... she aint for sale!! lol. Luckily most of the restoration and the fab work was either done by myself.. or my guy Brian. So that saved me mega cash. Kind of a "perk" being a partial shop owner.

Pretty darn cool. I wouldn't risk a obviously expensive engine running pump gas on it at over 1000 RWHP. But to each his own. Enjoy!

Thanks for the advise.... Im guessing we would run it up to 950-1000 at the tire.
Truthfully though... with the power its at right now... its fun. It hooks... and im not really concerned about hurting it.

We do want to try and run 200 in the standing mile with it.... not sure if i have to much down force with the spoiler up front.. and the diffusers in the back. Who knows....

Thanks for the compliments fella's.

What kind/color paint did you use for the car and the stripes?

Nice camaro... love the rear diffuser. It kinda gives it a modern look. Great job...
