Default Lm7 swapped 95 camaro vs Bolton mach1, built third gen, and built Cummins

helped my brother In law do a swap, his first one ever. Used a bunch of spare parts I had laying around, couldn’t be happier. Paid $410 for the car

95 camaro, stock lm7 with ls1 intake, $90 eBay longtubes, th350 with converter from my pulling tractor lol, 3.73 gear and Toyo 245 RR proxes.

mach 1 exhaust, csi, gears, nittos, tune

3rd supposed to be built, solid roller, heads cam Bolton’s stall on a slick

Cummins made 550/1100 today on the dyno. We were door to door at the stripe.

Thanks guys! The car is super budget built, literally ya less than 2k in it including buying the car. Pretty pleased with it honestly. Certainly not the fastest thing but it’s fun!

Mynwife stayed at the meet meet and the guys in the red camaro got back while we were racing the Cummins, they kept telling everyone no way it was a stock 5.3, had to have nitrous or heads cam lolz

Nice job, man. That car runs hard! I had a feeling that truck was going to give you a run but I thought you were going to hold him off.

Technically his bumper was at my door when we let off, which the shift light came on in third. I think we would hold him off if it was a proper 1/4 but it’s hard to say . And Thank you!
