New Guy here with a 2nd gen camaro
My name is Jeff. Friends call me Jeffro so feel free too!!
I live in Indiana. (south Bend) Just wanted to say Hi and fill you in on my life'r project.It's my first car and I've owner it now 30 years! Played with modifing this or that ever since.Lately I've had some extra cash to enhance my need for g-speed!
It's a '77 camaro,588 (hold on!!!) w/400 turbo. Working now on all the suspension and rear tubs and diff! Have Baer 13" track set all round for brakes. Global West upr. & Lwr. control arms. Qa1 pro coil over shocks, Herb Adams VSE front sway bar. Planning wheel vintiques series 90's ...18's in front and 20" in back. As much rubber as I can safely pack in.
Hoping for Michelin sport ps2 335/ 30/zr20in back. Rear of my car is in the middle of a mini tub expansion,then I'm hoping to get advise on what suspension I should end up buying..3 or 4 link...just leafs remounted inboard or what will be the best ,ect. Anyway, THANKS! I'll ramble on more as time goes but wanted to give you all a HEY!!!

Hi Jeff
Sounds like a sweet car, nothing beats a long time owner and their progress over the years. I have had my 71 Camaro for over 21 years now. Good luck and post some pics!

Hey thanks all for the welcome! I know this all would seem so much better for you if I had pics. I've got a digital camera so I'll be posting plenty real soon. I wish I took some last week. Just got the engine fired for the first time since the dyno room and everything was together. Since I've gutted the interior and rear end ect. the start the mini tubbing. Oh well, what comes out will be so much nicer anyway! Keep the rubber side down! LOL Jeff

Hey Thanks! I need to get off my ACE and do some work to her this weekend. Pics are top on the list so I can show instead of just talk! LOL I love you TA- Years back my friend owned a turbo TA, he puleed the 301 and installed what I thought was a ordinary 455 with not much in it. That car had so much torque, it kicked my camaro's butt back in my small block days! It handled much better too! Gave ame apprieiation for bird's and a thirst to make mine better!
