My latest project:something different

[aosborn]

Kind of cool. I'd rather look at that than another 69 camaro. The only thing I dont get is the 2.5 4cylinder, those motors hardly get out of their own way. I predict a motor swap in your future.

My original intention was to leave the stock engine in place just to be able to focus on getting the suspension installed and see how it drove with the short wheelbase. With that under control, removing weight to improve performance became a goal. It is at the point now where it corners like crazy, is very balanced in weight and handling, and is surprisingly quick. By the end of the day at the local road course, I was running with tricked out Miata's, a BMW M3, and other far more powerful cars. Like I always say, "it ain't what you got, it's what you do with it". Although I'm thinking an all aluminum 6.0 litre and a 6 speed would be fun, but with gas at $4.00 a gallon the 4 banger is looking better and better all the time!
