So I'm I!!!!!

I have a few people getting involved and want to make sure they all get credit. That is why I'm being tight with it. I should be able to let people know next week on who will be doing it and with what parts.

Thanks Ed

Get a hold of Shawn Zubler. He has the molds for the carbon doors, roof and some other stuff. Most of the stuff he has is for a trans am though. But I think that the molds are at cynergy.

Thanks.

I have seen you build and it looks to be very cool. It is so cool to go on all these sites and see who is building what. It is also great just to see how everyone does the build. For anyone looking to build anything it is a great place to find info and ideas.

Hopefully I will have some more pictures in the next day or so. Thanks Ed

Hey Guy's

I'm still working on some updates and pictures. I do however have some great news on the coverage. Brian Lohnes from Bangshift.com has come aboard with media support on the build. Bangshift.com will be posting updates even before I can on the build. The reason why I say before me is Brian is 5 minutes from the car and will be doing weekly updates or in some cases daily one's. To tell you the truth I will be using his site to watch the build process since I live 900 miles from where the car is. So check it out.

http://www.bangshift.com/blog/Projec...00-Camaro.html

I also have picked up some really great supporters of the build. Since I have not finalized some of the details on them all, I will only list what I have set in stone.

ATI Performance Products = I will be using their Superglide 4, Pro Mod Torque Converter, Super Dampner and Flexplate on the build.

CP Pistons = Custom Turbo Pistons

Carrillo Rod = Custom H-Beam Rods

I also have some Media getting involved in the build. Be sure to check out stories on the following sites. I do have other one's that I will list and update everyone in time.

www.Bangshift.com
www.dragzine.com
www.yellowbullet.com
www.LS1tech.com

Thanks to everyone that is supporting and following my build. The build is going to be almost as exciting racing it.

Eddie, Great to see the progress you've made since we talked at the IMIS show. These are a great group of guys here and I'm sure they would be happy to help any time.

Thanks Guy's

It was great talking to you also Sean (if my memory is any good). I'm working on it as much as I can. Dennis at DMC Racing build some of the nicest stuff out their. It's coming a long.

Here are a few of the older pictures that I had sent to me. This was when it was done as a 25.5 chassis. It was a shame to cut out some of Dennis great work but it is all going back togeather now. Next week Bangshift.com will be posting a huge update. I'm in the final stages of the engine combo and parts that are getting used on it. So keep your eyes out next week for them. I will try my best to post it over here but next week is the first week of my race season and I'm going to be busy. If I get a chance I will let you all know when it goes up.

Thanks for looking. Ed

It's coming along nicely. At least the belt routing & emissions decals weren't damaged! Are there more bars to add, or will the bar crossing between the main hoop be the only bar in that area? I guess I'm used to seeing it up higher in the area where the door bars attach to the hoop.

Their are others to get added. To tell you the truth the door bars were cut out and larger one's added with a X in the roof. All around the top got larger 1" tube for supports and their were others put under the car. We are making the car legal for a 25.3 cage build. A 25.5 is only good for 7.50's and we plan on going faster then that in the future. Thanks Ed
