Check it out. I just picked her up today. She is a 1998 Z28 Camaro LS1 346. She has a 460LE tranny with a small baby cam. She ran high 10.80's back in April. We will be taking her out for her test runs next Friday and Saturday at the Clash of Titans race at Houston Raceway Park.

Wow, if it wasn't for the wheels or the rollcage, I would never have assumed a 10 second ride.

Looks really clean, but you have to do something about that 4X4 stance!

Very nice - except I agree with GIZMO, need to do something with the fender well gap.

Tell your brother good luck from the LS1Tech crowd.

What all has been done to the car to run 10.80's with a "baby cam"? Race weight? heads? DA?
