I'm looking for as much support as I can get because it has been hard to stay motivated. I'm looking forward to posting up as many pics and as much information of the build as I can. My build is extremely unconventional and sometimes seems like I'm in way over my head.

Thank you all for the support...hopefully no haters here!

Some quick Build Specs:
1970 1/2 RS Camaro
Art Morrison Max G Chassis/Heavily modified
621 Fuel Injected Dart Big M (972HP NA 1600HP on 2 stage NOS)
4" Exhaust
12 pt Cage
More to come...Thanks

[fleetus macmullitz]

Welcome Dan. :thumbsup:

How do you plan to use that beast? :)

[Ron in SoCal]

With those specs, I really don't think you'll find any haters here...unless you put 26" wheels on it! :computer: :thumbsup:

Oh, and...

:ttiwop:

[Cole]

1600hp, not shabby

[Sieg]

Welcome Dan!

You may be over your head when the throttle is pinned with both systems spraying that beast. :thumbsup:

It's about time!! :hello:

Ron, I was thinking the exact smae thing. Who could hate on big block with over 900 ponies. Now the 26" wheels....oh boy!! LOL!! Let's see that thing Dan G. or at least some progress/introductory pics.

[Rod P]

welcome and just to keep you honest

:ttiwop:

[Bucketlist2012]

WOW...:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Welcome..

[georges510]

Welcome back Dan!!! I might have some old pics of the car when you stopped on it, going to hunt them down and post some.

[G4CERAT]

It's getting late here and I just wanted to add a few photos. I will load this thread up with photos within the next couple of days. Forgive me, this is my first time using a forum based site. I'll get the hang of it. I just have to get all of my photos organized now. :computer: There are more pics and some renderings as well in my garage.

BTW...Thanks for all of the hospitality! Looking forward to talking with everyone!

Thanks Vince!!

Just for you man...haha What do you think? I'm kinda diggin the green and the chrome, which is weird for me. I started liking black parts, black wheels and carbon fiber after I had the motor built. The green and chrome might fit this build...

BTW, What do you think about the reshaped contour of the back glass? Kris Horton designed it that way and I've liked it from day one. The one piece RS nose was my idea and he nailed it!:)

Here's what came off the the dyno sheet:
:rules:

N/A HP: 971.4 @ 6500RPM (91 oct)
N/A TQ: 843.2 @ 5100RPM (91 oct)

1st Stage (Plenum) NOS HP: 1285.9 @ 5700RPM (+methanol)
1st Stage (Plenum) NOS TQ: 1209.1 @ 5500RPM (+methanol)

2nd Stage (Direct Port) NOS HP:1261.1 @6100RPM (+methanol)
2nd Stage (Direct Port) NOS TQ:1192.9 @5300RPM (+methanol)

I know I know. 20" rear wheels won't put it down but I don't care. I'll have more than one set of wheels for the car. I decided to leave the rear brakes small enough to be able to put some meat under there. The car is not a purpose built or conventional build by any means, I just felt like building something different that will be fun to drive no matter what. Comments and questions are definitely welcome...

I started this build out of my garage and then first graduated to a 900 sq. ft. shop and finally to a 2,000 sq. ft where it will be for a while. Here are some of the previously unreleased garage shots...haha

HaHA...Thanks Man. I think I know the place (near the old Ford dealer turned trailer?:lol:) and we may have a few mutual friends. I may need another set of eyes from time to time. I feel way in over my head most of the time. We'll catch up soon then.

Yeah...I was fortunate enough to get a motor from him. He screwed a lot of people out of a lot of money. He still owes me a few things but it's a lost cause trying to get anything out of the guy. Many have tried and few have succeeded. I was one of the lucky ones. He can build great motors but can't figure out how to run a business. I tried and tried to get what was owed to me and got nowhere:beathorse

Installing the bracing. Wasn't quite sure what to do with the trunk sheet metal and the firewall so I left a lot of it rough.

I added some sheet metal to the inside of the rocker area before setting the body on the frame.

[G4CERAT]

This was the first go around with the frame when I first received it...it's changed a lot since. The wheels were built for test fitting...

This was all really rough just to see what I was working with. The body came back off shortly afterward.

now your talking. Looks good. Just the right height to be called crazy.

I like the rear glass but stock looks bad ass flush mounted.

So, since I decided to put the biggest motor I could get my hands on in a frame that was built for a small block, I had to notch the pan to clear the lower control arm mount on the pass. side. I made the cut and prepped it and had my buddy weld in the new panels. It was a good fix and came out clean. The next plan is to cut it in half and take about an inch out of it for some piece of mind while going down the road...it hangs low.

Incredible! I need to check out the introductions more!!!

[Revved]

Very cool build! Love the power plant but you need to make buddies with a detailer! That thing is going to be a bear to keep polished!!

Keep up with the pics.. It looks great so far!

[GregWeld]

Is it done yet?

[Vince@Meanstreets]

I think Dan is working on his projects thread right?? Isn't that right Dan?

[G4CERAT]

Hello All...I'm pleased to announce that I started the project back up again. The Camaro has been sitting since May 2012. I've been at it for four Sunday's in a row. Every day is one day closer to completion. My buddy and I are keeping each other motivated. We both hit the shop every Sunday. George works on his 63 Nova and I work on the Camaro. We ultimately work with each other on both rides. I'll start posting new pics soon.

Thanks to everyone that's following my build.

:thankyou:

[Flash68]

Great to hear! :bigun2:

Welcome back Dan! :cheers:

It's good to see you back on this project.:thumbsup:

[Vince@Meanstreets]

Lets Roll Dan!!!!

[G4CERAT]

Apparently, I have some catching up to do on all of your rides and projects. You guys have been busier than me I take it?

[G4CERAT]

I'm always getting emails from all of your threads but I think I remember some dry spells out there. I don't think it gets any drier than mine though.. Ha ha

[Winmon]

Amazing build.. Subscribed.

[G4CERAT]

Worked on it today and discovered that nothing fits. haha I'm just brainstorming some ideas. Have to run reverse rotation on that oil pump. I have some ideas. The hoses are there for the mock up. I'm not too fond of the red and blue. I might run partial hard lines. I love black hoses with the black fittings. You can also catch a glimpse of the water pump with -24 fittings that I had Meziere make me for the Billet Specialties Tru Trac kit. There's a lot of Mods to get that water pump to work in there along with having to relocate the power steering pump. This is because, well,....nothing fits!:drowninga:

And yet another milestone achievement...The motor is officially not on blocks anymore! lol That motor was propped up on wood in that frame for the last three years!!!!

love this 22 gallon fuel cell!! It setup with a bladder and foam. They also mounted my Aeromotive pump inside for me. In theory I should be safe if I get rear ended...right?

My buddy George's Nova is coming along as well. We have a great time working on both rides every Sunday. We keep each other quite motivated all week long. He's had that thing for 20 plus years. He's doing all Detroit Speed parts on it with an LS3. While it's off the ground by a mile right now he wants that thing in the weeds...definitely will be nice ride as well.

Ok...Let's see what we can get done next Sunday!!!!

Thank you all again for the continued support.

[georges510]

Are those headers going to hold up with heat?!?!?

Yup it sure does!!!

That's a great milestone :RunninDog:

I like the PVC headers. Cool idea for mock up:thumbsup:

I'm more concerned about where the steering shaft is going to go:headscratch:

Keep at it:cheers:

[Flash68]

What an absolute beast!

and yeah as another who is working thru the header mod & steering shaft placement and clearance I wonder too....

[Flash68]

Where you at with this thing? Was just in Hollister today looking at a truck... will be back soon and would be cool to see this thing in person. :popcorn2:

[Rod P]

cool build so far...what you going to do with this thing?

[Vince@Meanstreets]

cool build so far...what you going to do with this thing?

Keeping a tire company in business
Scaring babies
Making puppies yelp
Making old ladies cuss
But mainly making pants tight

[glassman]

cool build so far...what you going to do with this thing?

Trade it in for a Prius? sorry, couldn't resist...

[67pro-street]

This is an awesome build! I really like your wheel choice as well, it fits in great with the car. Best of luck on your progress!

We're there every Sunday...Come on over! Just don't come over and beat me up on fitment...I will shoe-horn everything in there if its the last thing I do!!! lol

[G4CERAT]

This is quite accurate!!!

[G4CERAT]

We'll see...I'm eventually going to have different wheel and tire combos depending on what I do. I think I'll figure it out when I finally shake it down.

[G4CERAT]

Sorting out the mufflers was tough but I think it came out pretty sweet...

Appreciate that...In the end I may just use those wheels for fun on the street.

[G4CERAT]

Trade it in for a Prius? sorry, couldn't resist...

Maybe I'll race one for pinks instead...haha

[G4CERAT]

What an absolute beast!

and yeah as another who is working thru the header mod & steering shaft placement and clearance I wonder too....

I actually had a shaft mocked up with my steering wheel at one point through those headers before the motor plate was installed. I'm going to go with a Woodward Steering column and quick release. It's going to be tricky but I found a way to make it work. Don't worry, I'll post detailed pics.:)

[Chad-1stGen]

This car has blown my mind :wow:
