1975 Camaro Bumblebee Autocross Build

[SPG]

Haven't updated this in awhile, a lot has been done in a year!
May 2022, I got the lower control arms and the car could roll around again before I moved

My rear end still wasn't purchased at this time, so I had to ratchet strap everything together to get it on the trailer, I eventually bought a strange s trac and new spindles.

Project went on pause for awhile, April 2023 I finally have the rear end with strange floater housings, I shortened the axle by an inch on each side to fit my rims (I refused to buy a different set of rims)


From there I had massive problems with my torque arm from chassisworks. Long story short, the subframe connectors they gave me were for a 70-74 even though I needed 75-81 connectors (these are longer) This in turn meant the torque arm they gave me (which was correct) was too long.



They fought me every step of the way to get this resolved, they eventually agreed to shorten the torque arm, but they should have just swapped out the subframe connectors for the correct part number.

They treated me like I was an idiot and I didn't know what I was talking about even though I had multiple pictures and measurements to prove otherwise. I never want to deal with them again.


That aside, I got my LT4 and paired it with a 4l60e and got it in the car this weekend. This will come back apart and I will have a proper 4l60e built for my car, but this is for mock up purposes.



Next step on this project is figuring out the wiring, I have all the wiring diagrams I need to make this function correctly. I also have a brake booster from a tesla, so I will start the project soon as well.



I also started a youtube channel if you want to follow along with the build progress
