Som Camaro SS build Always wanted one and set a goal in mind to build a great all around street cruiser that could do everything well. Drove to NC to pick the car up after months of searching for a Formula Hawk or Cme Som SS. https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...62406b02f1.jpg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...6fe1163e15.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...e82f8e9cd4.jpg I knew from the beginning what I had planned. I've owned 4 th gens over the year's. Forged wheel's, maybe win a show, out run a 6th gen ZL1. |
The car had 19k in it when purchased. So the search for some forged wheel's came to an end after finding a set of Fikse Fm5s that needed restoring. https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...f3a90aa082.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...9faac4c7c9.jpg After around 100 hours we got them cleaned enough to put on the car. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...cbd9394554.jpg So then it was time to lower the car. https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...960c64d2c3.jpg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...e17b43c3e8.jpg So now I was looking to start detailing the engine bay while waiting for to install the Heads and Cam. https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...fdabeea4e5.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...96eb12c982.jpg |
So now we move on to adding power. After having a bunch of different combos in multiple Ls vehicles I choose to go with Tsp Prc Cnc 227s heads with Hollow valves, milled to 59 cc's, 230/240s Cam, 1 7/8's Headers, Ported Fast 92mm. https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...fb72805e77.jpg Found a mini https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...43e11430cb.jpg Custom tag https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...e9b76cca41.jpg Head and Cam install https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...d5657fbc6.jpeg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...d8fefe695.jpeg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...171b615316.jpg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...93d4189d66.jpg https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...b931a7bba6.jpg Made the Fbody meet in Orlando! |
|
So after 3k miles or so and many 5.0s and other cars. |
|
I had a 408 that had been sitting for lots of year's and well the Head and Cam just wasn't enough. Some I started ordering some more part's. https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...d21c577686.jpg PRC 247s Hollow intake valves Installed the heads and Custom 240s/250's cam https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...6358c1372.jpeg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...fe04dffa3.jpeg 408 installed Now drive the car to Daytona and dyno tune it. https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...af566660a.jpeg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...d5ee60921.jpeg |

Little burnouts for family day. And the test. https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/ls1tech...ad6eefffe1.jpg No video's well because I can't drive and video! But a solid 2-3 cars on 2 different Zl1s and I still have some bugs to work out. |
Beautiful car and build! I follow you on Instagram. Def. one of my favorite SOM cars out there. Glad you were able to run some ZL1s after the motor swap. 👍 |
