Recipe for Pro-Touring (56K watch out)

[TitoJones]

Here is one way to whip a fresh Pro-Touring basket of goodies:

Take one 67 Camaro-



Shake well, until all loose, old, crusty suspension falls out-





Add two parts of Wayne Due suspension-



Put Wayne Due sub on a flat sheet-



Dump contents of 67 Camaro onto subframe-



Take 1 tall deck big block, 2 engine plates, and a McLeod modular bellhousing and sprinkle them onto the front end-




(Note some firewall clearance may be needed. In case of engine setback, subsitute factory pedal mounting with Tilton unit)


For optimal results, place engine behind front axle centerline-



For a topper, try adding a set of 20x10 and 20x13 wheels-



When placing in oven, make sure oil pan does not hang below frame rails-



Take Wayne Due brackets and place welder on tack for 15 min-





Blend Guldstrand components-



Slide rear into sheet with Camaro and Subframe-



Serve with loads of horse power-

[RedAddiction]

Looks good but who makes the brackets for the rear c4 suspension

[TitoJones]

I'm glad you guys like it thus far. I know it's been fun thus far to get it where it is.

RedAddiction-
Wayne Due made the weld in IRS brackets.

[colt zantop]

killer.........nice work so far!

[WS6]

damn those 20s are gonna look good on there.

[jcerioni]

Creative and entertaining. I have a couple of questions:
Is the IRs out of 84-87 or 88-96?
How well will the Dana 44 hold up under the torque of the big block?

Thanks

[TitoJones]

That is a Dana 44 from a 96 C4 Corvette. We have Carbon Fiber half shafts, heavy duty U joints and billet caps, as well as a gear set designed for the HP levels. With a 20" wheel, it will have a hard time getting traction from a dead stop, so the shock to the rear will not be too bad.

[trapin]

Those 20" wheels are interesting. I'd like to see how they look on a '67 Camaro with the open wheel houses. Something tells me they wouldn't look as nice on the '69's with their semi-closed wheelhouse profiles.
