Sweet car, love the black hood and tail. Also this picture is one of the best.
Now if the lighting in the background wasnt so bright, it'd be way better.

Re: photo critique
I have no idea what kind of camera you are using to take those photos....soo heres my critique of the photos. Damn Nice car for starters.
But, the background (sky) is overexposed.
Try to take the light meter reading off of the acutal car, or your hand, don't let it see the sky. If you are using a digital, it is easier because you can see instant results.
Need a smaller depth of field.
Use a smaller f-stop, something along the lines of idk, F 5.6 and a shutter speed of somewhere around 500-1000th/sec.
I would find a different background that isn't as "busy", Those trees and leaves are kind of distracting imho.
If you don't understand what the heck I just said, don't worry about it.

ya, i dont know if its for real, but the prev. owner was telling me that 400 was a low reading, he had a slip but he kept all of his racing stuff in his garage in a frame. ive actually never ran it at the strip yet, but i can definately see how it could, after driving it. considering all of the other mods i have done (770 street avenger carb, port, polish, total engine overhaul, total trannie overhaul, k&n air filter) i can imagine its more or less in the 450 range at this point. but i like to stick with a number that im a little bit more confident with. so i stick with the 400 hp. anyways... thanks for the tips guys, doesnt seem like there is many 2nd gen. camaro's here. is this true?

i was actually supposed to dyno it a few weeks back. but decided instead to go Pierre(capitol of south dakota) and watch NHRA action instead. next spring after i get lower gears, and a tougher driveline im def. going to run it. seems the 2nd gens are getting tougher to come by... i hope.
