I just picked up a new to me 1974 camaro z28, its got a clean body, but the paint is very faded, no rust and minimal filler(certainly none used for repair) it has a warmed over 350, afr heads, custom cut cam, ebrock intake and carb, cast rotating assembly with 10.79:1 SCR. im guessing it should make around 420 tq and hopefully simmiler hp. its backed up by a turbo350 (becasue everyone knows how rare that 350/350 combo is in chevys!), all that feeds to a open 2.42:1 diff.
I plan on doing the 1LE brake upgrade up front, and getting a larger drum setup in the rear. this thing stops good as is.
up front im probably gonna get the global west tubular A arms, upper and lower, with a coilover setup. out back im gonna get better springs, probably hotchkis, adn slapper bars(ive seen some fast 2nd gens on slapper bars).
Ill roud all this out with 17's up front, and 18's out back, ill determine wheels/tires last.
Ill get pics up as soon as it stops raining, shes not pretty, but damn can she haul!
well hi everyone!
