    • Vehicle Overview

    What started as a project to "learn how to paint" evolved into a full rebuild of the car. From bumper to bumper everything was touched in some manner. All of this took place in my home garage over about 2 years. Did everything but mounting the tires and final alignment myself with help from friends and family. 1987 Camaro IROC Z-28 Driveline- • 1994 Cadillac Fleetwood LT1 • New parts o Valve springs o MSD Opti o Water pump o AC Delete pulley o Alternator o Belt o Bosch 3 30lb Injectors o Most sensors • Dyno Dons ceramic coated shorty headers and y-pipe • Magnesium Corvette valve covers • Stock PCM- Self Tuned • Custom wiring harness • 1995 Camaro T-56 6-speed • Pro 5.0 Short throw shifter • Stock replacement clutch resurfaced flywheel • 1995 Hydraulics, shortened master cylinder rod to move pedal down. • Tail housing conversion for mechanical speedo • 1998 Camaro SS rear end- 3.73 gears LS1 brakes.
