I'm BACK ONLINE!!! I'm thinking of writing a song about how much I hate comcast. It's craptastic!
All the interior is out of the Camaro right now. Apparently, my T-tops or something else leaks like a sieve. I had over an inch of standing water on the back seat floorboard. Pulled out all the seats, removed the carpet, cleaned up the whole mess.

As luck would have it, my gears are on backorder
Did however get my LS6 intake in so I think I might try to put it on this week. Thought about waiting to do a comparison, but...............**** that I can't wait any longer. Time to order cam stuff now

Good news though. I found some tires. 275/50/15 et Streets.
engine? Should be strong enough
transmission? check
clutch? check
wheels/tires? Check
drive shaft/rear end? Uh... this is going to get expensive p.d.q.
I'll check out the Dyno thread.

Whenever you get ready!! It's all in good fun to me. The other reason I'm ordering all of this stuff is because we're about to get my wife a camaro also and I got alot of work ahead of me on that one so I'm trying to get mine somewhat finished, before I tackle her's. Oh yeah, and to beat AUTO's

I'm so jealous of those of you with aftermarket rear ends I'm a little green.
Say the word when your wife's car needs wrenches turned. I'm in debt for the boxes!

Don't believe everything you read about big cams being better. My best ET pass 11.29 and my best mph pass 124 both were run with my little TR224 cam. I swapped over to a much bigger TSP cam and can't match either of my best. I've run the bigger cam at lower DA and still couldn't match. I've blasted a ton of big cam cars with my 224 cam!
You just give up too much low end with those giant cams. I will be putting my TR224 cam back in after running my current setup with the new braked th350. Just talk to Todd and Jet from Monroe and Scott from Texark. about those big boy cams. You will only gain from a bigger cam if you are willing to wind your motor up past 68-6900rpm and if you do that with a stock short block you will turn it into a big pile of junk
