Until the new LT4 was introduced for the 2015 Corvette Z06, the LS9 V8 from the C6 Corvette ZR1 was the most powerful production road motor from GM ever. That engine helped make the C6 ZR1 one of the most formidable performance cars in the world and when you swap that engine into another car – it doesn’t fail to impress.

Way back in February, a sink hole appeared underneath the floor of the historic Corvette Museum and began swallowing cars whole. It almost looked like some elaborate hoax for a while, with people speculating that the cars shown to be swallowed looked a lot like Matchbox cars.

There is no official information included with this video as to what all is done to this 1st gen Camaro, but it is clearly supercharged and one person in the comments speculates that it is a 468 big block. It could be – who knows – but it is very clear that this Camaro has some very serious power.

A few days ago, we showed you the first shots of the new Ring Brothers creation dubbed “Recoil.” It essentially was a hyper tuned 1966 Chevelle. Now we have more details and better pictures, and it’s better than anyone could have hoped for.

I admire any person or company that has a vision and the work ethic to make that vision into a reality, especially when it comes to something as labor-intensive as a custom car. SEMA is full of them, but let’s face it – some of them are downright hideous despite the hours of knuckle-busting and Red Bull swilling that went into them.

This week’s Throwback video features an absolutely wicked 1968 Chevrolet Camaro powered by a blown big block engine that is said to produce upwards of 1,000 horsepower.

The 5th generation Camaro is coming to an end. Next year, we will be introduced to an all-new, lighter and smaller version of America’s iconic muscle car.
