Honestly, if I had the time and money like that guy apparently does, I'd do the same thing. What else does he have to do besides sit around and twiddle his thumbs?

, With too much time and money on my hands I can think of a lot of different things I would do to a classic camaro. Putting a 4 banger in it is not one of them. The workmanship is very nice but the sound is all ricer and just completely wrong for that car.

If you heard a Dog Meow you would be like WTF???

Now a 454 LSx swap, now your talkin in my good ear.

i think its something different. not something i would like but different.

another thing, before everyone gets their pantys in a bunch, how do you know this wasnt a crate camaro, and not a real classic. if thats the case then more power to the guy, but if he chopped up a good 67, then ill be pissed lol. but i think with all his money and all his other classics with the amount of custom **** that went into that car i think its a crate camaro, from dynacorn

Man, some of you are SOOOOOOOOOOOO lame... That car is cool as ****! Nice workmanship, clean as hell, nice attention to details (gauges, tail lights, etc...) and for those of you who talk **** without knowing your cars, that car CAME with an inline 6 to begin with (it is a Camaro, not a factory SS, hence calling it a Supra Sport)...

...now it has an almost 1000hp inline 6 and you're mocking it? Get a clue guys...

People put Chevy motors in Deuce Coupes and they were still cool. At least it isn't a 100hp Hybrid motor

Having owned a 1st gen SS... that is sad... not saying anything about the workmanship.. or how clean it is.. just saying putting a ricer engine in a classic muscle car is very sad... those cars are not meant to sound like a lawn mower.. they are meant to sound mean and nasty... that one does not

I understand it has 950+ hp... but put a 454 in it... and make it sound like the beast it is supposed to sound like, not the neighborhood riding mower...

You can think I am lame all you want, I am just stating my opinion, that I dont like what they did to that car....

It started life as a CRAPPY 6 cylinder... Now it has near 1000hp and I am sure sounds better than it did 41 years agao. How is this not an improvement?

More than one way to mod a car nicely...

i see what you are saying but i see it as more degrading to the camaro to say out with the "old out of date pushrod v8" and lets replace it with newer more modern parts. I 100% agree that it is an amazing car but it just is not right.
