Default Saying Hello

Hey whats going on fellas.

My name is Ace.

I have a 69 Camaro Blue with white stripes.

Current set up
355ci
Xe268h-10 cam
vortec heads
edelbrock intake with 600cfm edelbrock carb (1406)
Long tube headers and full exhaust.

Set up in progress

355ci
AFR 195cc Eliminator heads
ZZX cam
Holley 750dp

I will be adding a P1SC supercharger later on. I am not trying to make this car a dragster, I just want a good, fun and reliable street car with some power behind it.

I am a very active member on other local forums Norcal-LSX.com - Northern California's GM Enthusiasts Club and hoping to be very active on here as well. I don't have much experience with old school cars or carbs but I have a lot of experience with LS cars.

I see the benefit of being an active member on forums with people that have similar interests. I am hoping that I can make new friends here and hopefully be able to do more upgrades to my car with the help of people that have experience with them.

Once again, thanks for having me here and hopefully I can learn a lot more about old school cars from you guys.

Here are a few pics of my car.

Yes they are.

The mustang isn't too bad. It has great street manners, can sit in bumper to bumper traffic and will pull off high 11's at the track while still blowing cold A/C

I am looking for mods to put my 69 camaro in the 12's while still having good street manners.

Any ideas to help get me there would be appreciated.

Thanks once again for having me here.

Welcome to the Camaro Forums, Ace.
Nice corral. Nice '69 and nice black SS.

As said elsewhere, you will need to improve the rear axle ratio.

thanks fellas. I am undecided between 3.55 or 4.10s

The car currently has a th350 and so i'm liking the 3.55 route for now.

I plan on swapping the auto for a 6 speed later and i like the 4.10s for that.
