You did a hell of job! The car sounds great in its current state and will only get better. Can't wait to see the dyno video. You are going to record the final dyno runs, right? Again great job on the Camaro!

We just got a few inches a few days ago and it has snowed each night since. It is a never ending winter. I would not be able to make it to the garage to work on the car anyway...960 square feet of white oak flooring just showed up yesterday in my garage.

Gameover, nice build. I hav ea few questions as I am doing the same thing to my 68. I sourced all my parts off a 60,000 mile WS6 Trans Am. It looks like you used a late model brake booster and master cylinder set-up. Is that stock 4th gen F-body or aftermarket? Is your clutch system designed around a 4th gen F-body or custom designed for your 69? Did you leave the shifter in the stock F-body location or did you move it up to the forward plate? I have console that I want to keep, so I am trying to figure out how to move the shifter to the right location.
I am in Southeast PA, so I am hoping you will be bringing this car to SuperChevy in July. I'd love to see it in person.

Highly impressive numbers! Give yourself some credit. In the past 44 years that is the fastest your Camaro has ever been.

Replied to your PM. Post the graph and slip if you have a chance. I'd like to see what it's doing past 6100. Also, what were your shift points at the track.
