Must. Stop. The drool.
You sir have a fine detail to work. It's nice seeing someone bring back some old school muscle like you are. Congrats on that.
I envy you as I have a second gen that I would love to do this to, and my dad has a tempest that needs it dearly lol.
Keep up the good work and don't get burnt out on it. It looks so nice I can't see why you would. You will def. have a beautiful piece when finished.

Ya know....I love Camaros, my dad had a 68 with a 396 that him and my uncle built from crank to carb, and normally I hate repowers in camaros that are anything but gassers, but I find myself really impressed at your attention to detail and I really look forward to seeing this come together.

Even a mildly tuned stock lbz will move that right along! Looks great!

Thanks, I like it too. It might get an inch or two lower when I get some new coil overs mounted in the rear.

Thank you! Having Bernie help me pro street it has definitely been a blessing. Neither of us have attempted anything like this before, so the fact that it's coming out this good makes it much more worthwhile.

Thanks! This is also my first time replacing sheet metal. I'm a painter at the shop I work at but I've paid a lot of attention to how our body men do it over the years and just went for it.

My sister had a boyfriend a few years back that had an rclb 4x4 lly that he tuned with efi live and ran high 12's in the quarter. I believe the only other mods he had was a dual feed line and tie rod sleeves (I think). The motor will have to stay stock for awhile, but it will give me the opportunity to get some tuning time in.

Drag strip?! We need more interesting rides out there.I love pickup trucks but a dmax pro street camaro! That can get even the old Gasser guys fired up. Our sport is in a weird place right now, more well thought out and unique builds will hopefully help divert attention from the jerk ass kids blowing smoke on old ladies. Props for going for it!:beer:

If this chevelle is any indication I would think the Camaro would run low to mid 11's. I believe the chevelle is a stock Dmax with an EFI live tune.

I believe this is the same car.... Converted to LBZ now with bigger turbo, pump and sticks..... Russ at RPM just finished it up. It's only got a couple passes on it, down to a 10.7 right now
I think with that suspension/drivetrain setup, the camaro will be cleaning up at the track
Time to see what she can do.... LBZ Chevelle - Duramax Diesels Forum
