'67 Camaro E/SA redo

HandOverFist · 07-05-2015, 12:30 AM

Yeah, I'm pretty excited about the wagon...think I will like it a lot. I havent given up completely on the Mustang yet. If I can get it under the index then I may consider selling it.

I just remembered I never updated this thread. The wagon deal was nixed and a '67 ElCamino was bought for future use as a Stocker, but decided to keep it on the street for awhile instead.

The 350 in the Camaro was pulled until I can come up with some hp for it. In the meantime a 383 was dropped in and I took it down the track this evening for the first time...1.38 60' times and 6.62 @ 101mph felt satisfying. Who knows, maybe a SuperStreet entry sometime in the future?

This is with the original PG/convertor that came with the car.

Still messing with the 383/PG combo. This pass had a stumble, but the next one was clean at 10.51 @ 124mph.

When funds are right a return to class racing in the works...BBC to follow.

Good to hear you're still making Stocker plans for the Camaro, Rich.

The 325 and 350 are still good BBC combos but have been pretty beat up in the Camaro body factors. The 375 is pretty decent with the iron heads and the 401 headed 375's are always a good pick. Again, lots of guys with that combo have worked it over pretty well. -Al

Yeah, the 375 we would have to go stick.

Looks like your running the Goodyear 9" radials. How do you like them.

Not many passes on them thus far, but they seem to work just as well as the Hoosier's. Supposedly they will last a bit longer.
