      That project seemed to grow a bit more then I expected.

      I was originally going to go NA with TFS LS3 heads, cam and intank

      Welllll, I ended up ordering a 2.9 L whipple instead.

      I think that I have everything ordered minus the heat exchanger. I'll wait until it's all in and then decide on placement and size.

      It should be fun.

      Loving it! For some reason, I seem to like the 2nd gens better than 1st...

      A small update.

      I'm almost ready to get the new hood painted.

      I have a small back fire out the exhaust. So ill have to track that down.

      I still have to finish off the new emergency brake cables after swapping in the 2010 camaro console with e brake handle.

      Then after that. June 8th is hot rod power tour.Name:  20190326_172543.jpg

      Love the progress on this build..... May I ask what the width of the rear axle is...."distance from axle mounting surface - to - axle mounting surface". These wheels are awesome!! Also, any pics of console mounts/mods to make this fit??

      Hi there. Sorry for the late response. Even though I don't have much to help you. I don't have the rear width measurement, Sorry. I ordered it about 3 years ago now and don't have any documentation that I can find.

      The console went in pretty easy. I had to make a few brackets. One to hold up the emergency brake handle and 2 more to support the console up. It wasn't too bad. Sorry I don't have any pictures of them. I don't take too many in progress pictures.

      Here is a picture from this years Hot Rod Power Tour. I did the long haul!! Loved it.

      I have never driven in the rain before. When we got caught in the rain, I had to adjust the hood up to provide clearance!! That was pretty much the only problem. Not bad for a fresh build.

      Thanks, I am a fan of Hugger Orange too.

      The rear wheels are 18 x 12 with a 335 30 tire on there.
