Thanks. The only changes I plan on making are mechanical (new springs, p/s, move the tank to under the bed.....).

Good eye. Yeah that's my 81 Z28 I sold several years ago to buy my Corvette.

70 shorty · 06-30-2009, 02:27 PM

Here's another shot with a view of the Camaro.

The Camaro was actually very nice and solid, perfect interior, just needed paint

Sorry...but this is the best picture that I have...

It's dual pipes that then have a custom Y-pipe...which just happens to fall outside of the picture. Sounds pretty pissed off with a 454 under the hood.

Hottrucks · 06-30-2009, 07:06 PM

thats KOOL I would cut the so they onlty stuck out about an inch but even with the body so you get a bigger opening out of the same size pipe But I love it.........

my truck is bagged and pretty low the only thing stopping me from getting it lower is I have the same problem as you ...underframe exhaust and long headers.....I'm not sure how muck longer they can take the dragging there getting now so I'm looing for a better solution........
