No major mods to the stock subframe. A little trimming around the coil spring pocket to allow room for the Shockwaves. Stock width axle, we did not have to move the lower bars in or make custom offset bar either. Jason took some good images of tire clearance......

it looks great, most guys run 12 inch wide rear rims which will not clear the factory style mount you use, an 11 inch rim like you used or even probaly a 11.5 will clear with correct back spacing.
most tire makers suggest 11.5 to 12.5 for 335 tires.

You guys build cars like we do in just days, I love it

What kind of gas tank are you going to run?

[jb@ridetech]

we used a ricks hot rod tank. its under the rear cover.

[nicks67camaro]

very cool rear diffuser....is that an "one off" or was it purchased through a vendor channel....(if so do you have a name)

Thanks Nick

[jb@ridetech]

it's a custom, we made it.

[Damn True]

few more pictures.........

That pretty much kicks ass!

What size is the tank?
Custom from Ricks or standard product?
Baffled?
Is there a cell liner in it?

[jb@ridetech]

well we are getting close now, it now runs and we are finishing up some small details, lights, exhaust etc....

Maby it's already been covered. But why no subframe connectors? I know you guys tend to drive cars hard.

I doubt we will use a sub-frame connector, but there are some other parts in the works........ I'll show you as soon as we get it going.

• These tanks are designed to retro fit a Fuel injected motor in most popular Chevrolet, Ford, and Mopar Muscle Cars.
• System Includes an installed fuel pump, ready to run.
• Fuel Pump Specs: Supports up to 450 HP. @ 13.5 volts pump is rated for 51 PSI and will flow 41GPH. (155.2 LPH)
• Replacement AC Delco fuel pumps are readily available at your local GM dealer, GM part number EP381.
• Pump sits in separate chamber within the tank to eliminate starvation during low tank levels.
• All tanks are baffled to control fuel tank slosh.
• Works just like an O.E. in tank system and features -6 A.N. supply and -6 A.N. Return.
• Power is transferred to the pump via the electrical terminals located at the top of the injection provision.
• In-tank pump for fuel injection that works like an O.E. System which means added reliability. All Injected tanks have a -6 Supply and -6 Return.
• Note: Any interruption in fuel flow will cause an injected motor to stall. With the Rick’s Hot Rod Shop Fuel Pump Chamber this will eliminate any interruption in flow.

Our tank has an upgraded pump. I found this on ricks website. thanks Jason

I think that it is around 16 gallons. It is a standard tank that they produce specifically for Camaro's with Minitubs, the corners are cut off to allow exhaust clearance.

Video?

I'm surprised that there's no sub frame connectors?

[darren@ridetech]

We are installing a roll cage, which will help reduce body twist.

Cool ride. I really like the rear treatment, very unique.

What did you guys do to improve the factory front suspension?
