Sounds good and looks good. Is the Camaro logo in the back white or is that a reflection?
Have fun!

Sounds Great!! Does it still smoke a little out one side?

The F-body exhaust kinda routes through one side more than the other, it smokes mainly because the tune off quite a bit right now

that is badass man, how hard was it to get the camshaft in there did you have to pull the motor?

I did have the motor out but it was for another reason, cam swaps are pretty easy on an LS1, it's the valve springs that can be PITA.

Looks like you have some blow by. Are you running to rich?

JD1969

I might have had a little, it was a brand new motor in that vid so the rings might not have been fully seated, plus it was not tuned so yes it was a tad rich.

sounds pretty good, better with glass packs I.M.O. how many motors have ya gone through?not really sure of life on a modified ls1

Thats the first one, I had a little problem with the nitrous kit and cracked the block and broke a piston. If you want to know about LS1's and how long they live try to find a vid og a called Juggernaught, he is in the 9's on a stock short block and went 10's with stock untouched heads. Oh yea glass packs suck;)

pretty quick time for the stock heads, guess it's all about technology, no one will ever convince me to go with nitros, but for me its all about old stuff, love carbs and glasspacks, nice car overall and great on video! you probably have more in your motor then i have in my whole car.

Oh I've done the old car thing as well, and I still enjoy them. The thing I like about the newer car is that I can go run low 12's (that's without nitrous) and still drive from here to Cali and get 25 mpg on the highway if wanted. Click the little camara under my avatar and check some of my old rides.

obsolete you can laugh all you want, but i bet his camaro would tear the **** out of your mustang. anyways, jd1969, what dynomax muffler is that? sounds sick, i love hearing the cylinders ignite.

I thank you sir, I'm an everything fan.
Well almost...
Do love american v8's though.
Even talked my friend into getting a maro, a shame he didn't do much with it.
Looks identical to yours actually.

Also, in defense from the first post: I know him from another forum [&:]

Whats up OB? And yea we are about even with me on motor and you on spray;) We will see what happens after I swap in the auot trans and trans brake and put the spray back on:DTo answer the muffler question, it's actually a Random Technology cat back on the car, I got a deal on it, but I do plan on running some true duals in the near future.

Only cuz I broke an axle before I could see what it can really do.
ET Streets were new and I'm guessing the oils were wearing off nice and good my final run of this year [&:]
Highest trap speed to date is 116 on spray :(
Highest off is 110
Still have big plans for next year, not running 8.5:1 for nothing;)

Jd, your camaro sounds awsome. i love it when cars are loud like that. I wish i could get a ride in that beast.


Obsol3te, your car is really cool too, my brother would really like it. he has a 93 fox with a 5.0 and a 5 speed. he has already done some edelbrock engine mods and he is putting his name on the waiting list fot the mavromont 17 by 10 in wheel. he is gonna put 315's on those. maybe i can find some pics somewhere and email them to you.Also he is looking into buying a kenne bell blowzilla to up the HP a little.

Sorry about the mustang stuff guys. the way i look at it anything that can be classified as a musclecar i like. camaro's just happen to be my favorite kind of musclecar.
