My dad has just purchased a Procharged95 Z28 Camaro and we'll probably need some help here and there. The car hasnt arrived yet. But it has an Omni spark oil leak. the sellar told us the car has a slight slip in 3rd at WOT but we got a good deal on the car.I'll list details in a seperate post below.</P>


I drive (Greg Jr)an 87 Grand National, TA60 Turbo, 42.5lb injectores, LT1 MAF with Translator, Front mount Duttweihler intecooler, 3 inch downpipe and more. I Have not tracked the car yet.</P>


Step mother Drives a SC 97 Regal, Pulley and intake,, ran a 14.5 last time at the track. Not bad for an everday 4 door family car.</P>


My dad drives a Bonivlle for everday use, but in the summer he brings out the 70 Vette. T tops, 4 speed, Frame off resto 2K miles ago,, about 390HP,,,Should hit 13.9's on a good night. It really a high way car with the 3:08 rear and 4 speed.</P>

Supercharged 1995 Camaro Z28. The engine is a 5.7L multiport fuel injected LT1. The engine was completely rebuilt less than 6000 miles ago specifically for the supercharger. Stock 350 bored .030 over (355 cid now) and low compression TRW forged pistons installed. The stock crank was polished and spec'd out standard on the main and rod bearing journals. Stock rods resized as well. The heads were inspected, valves relapped, new valve stem seals installed, and then pressure tested to ensure no leaks. The engine was reassembled with Fel-Pro gaskets along with a sealed power high volume/high pressure oil pump. A new Opti-spark cap and rotor were also installed along with a new set of 8mm silicone wires. The supercharger is an ATI Procharger P600B with the 9psi pulley currently installed. There is also an intercooler installed in the system. I'm getting close to 11psi of boost with this pulley and will include a brand new never installed 12psi pulley that should produce closer to 15psi on this engine. 42lb injectors have been installed in order to get enough fuel to the engine along with an MSD box to supply ample spark. The stock computer program has been reworked to get everything to work properly. Mac headers have been installed along with 3" mandrel bent exhaust all the way out the back of the car. There is no catalytic converter on this car. The transmission is a stock 4L60E. It works fine, but it slipped a little when shifting into 3rd gear at full throttle when I drove it last. It only does this at full throttle. Part throttle or even heavy throttle, it shifts fine. It doesn't do it all the time, but be advised. A good shift kit and fluid/filter change will likely take care of this. A Jegs line lock is installed to lock the front brakes for doing a burnout at the racetrack. The car has run 12.32 @ 113 mph with a stock converter and a set of Mickey Thompson ET Streets. A good computer programmer will be able to get even more power out of this setup once the 12psi pulley is installed along with a high stall torque converter. Mid to high 11 second runs are very realistic. Suspension upgrades include a Mac torque arm and Lakewood traction bars for late model camaros. The Kumho tires are BRAND NEW. There are not 100 miles on them yet. The exterior of the car is in good condition. The paint shines good with only minor paint chips in the hood from normal use. There is a very small dent in the driver's side rear quarter panel. It's about the size of a dime, and is so hard to see that I couldn't get my digital camera to show it. The car is dirty in the pictures from being in storage for the last year and a half. It will be washed and waxed for the winning bidder. The interior of the car is also in good shape, no rips or tears in any of the seats. There are a couple of spots on the carpet, but you don't see them with the floor mats installed. The rear end is a stock 10 bolt posi with 3.23 gears that were installed by the previous owner (the car originally had 2.73). AM/FM cassette radio works fine, air conditioning blows cold, power drivers seat, power windows (passenger side window motor is slow) , cruise control and rear defrost. The hood and trunk struts are in perfect working order.

That's the description of the actual car. This car is a toy. I hardly drove it after I installed the supercharger. The car had 113K on it when I rebuilt the engine. Only took it to the track 6 times, so it's not been beat on every day of it's life either. I literally have not driven the car in over a year. I drove it in and out of storage once or twice and around the block about the same. If you look at my ebay user name, you see that I am a pilot, and flying is pretty much all I do now. The camaro was my baby and was meticulously cared for. I've always changed the
