Hey guys here is my plan that I am working to afford.

I want to buy a 1982-1992 Camaro and have it repainted Sundrop Green + a silver/black checkerboard side stripe, add a fiberglass hood & aggressive rear wing, rear seat delete,AC/heater delete, Sport bucket seats,8-10 point cage, light grey window tint,383-403 LQ9 stroker with an F1-A Procharger or Precision TA-5557 Turbos,tubbs/ladder bar with a narrowed S-60 & ARB Airlocker, M/T 31X16.5 ET Streets, and add a TH-200-4R or TH-400 tranny with a 2800-3200 stall convertor.

Is this a good plan?

It is the LUST for speed that makes the cold winters bareable.

 

Does it have a compass in the stock too?

Dude, have you even priced all that out?

Sundrop green looks WAY too much like a ricer.

 

It sounds like a pipe dream to me. You can find a used a pro-street on craigslist all day long. Do you know why? They are a pain in the rear to drive, very expensive to maintain, and just after a few drives, they loose a lot of fun due to abovementioned items. I have seen more than one pro-street camaro and mustang for sale here in sunny az where you can drive one 12 months of the year. People put 50K+ and are selling them for 12, even then they don't move too fast. Best of luck if that is really what you want.

 

Hey djs did you build your own engine? If so what kit did you use?

 

I did a crate motor from proformance unlimited. It was cheaper and easier just to have them do it. If I had a lot more time on my hands I probobly would have just gotten the block prepped with the rotating assembly in, then go from there. But, I had a time crunch to get it to the body guy, so crate was way faster. It is a solid motor and I have had no problems with it. I mated it to a fresh built 700R4. I have just under 500 miles on the motor. The whole project has taken right about two years. The only thing I have left is the rear, the original open 10 bolt has 153K on it. If you have time to do it on your own, I would suggest getting the block prepped and machined and then pick and choose parts that work together well.
