Bought my first chevy yesterday, it's a dark red 1991 camaro rs. Has the L98 5.7L bored .30" over, decked, balanced, holley stealthram on top, all stuck to a t5 from a z28. whole rear end is a 3.42 posi out of an '01 camaro ss. aaand to top it all off, its rolling on '07 vette rims, 19x10 rear 18x8.5 front.

already looking forward to next summers meets, and of course race season.

picture is from the previous owners ad. he's moving to australia, the only reason he let it go.

yeah previous owner from port moody, now the cars in vancouver. I'm doing a proper BMR tranny mount, torque arm etc.. then subframe connectors, and finally beefy control arms before any other power adders.

I would if UBC didn't have tuition fees. Then the $14,000 I give them for 8 months would definitely cover a nice new coat of the shiny stuff. With a small budget, the flexy frame comes first.

it's not a L98 btw,

it's a GM crate motor out of my wrecked maro

first thing you should do is get the right sized tires for the back lol

it's in one of my older for sale posts lol, too lazy to dig it up

350 with 4bolt main and 9:1 compression is pretty much all I can remember.

Trying to put all that behind me...

what you taking at UBC?
