Camaro is awesome!!!

I have a 1973 Camaro. The car came only with a 307!!!! The previous owner pulled that out and put in its place a 350 and that is about it. I have owned the car for 3 years now and it is nothing like the orange junker I brought home. The car has had a paint job, new brakes all around, intake, 4bbl holley carb, weiand intake manifold, hooker headers, 2.5 inch exhaust, aerochamber mufflers, camel hump heads (which pulled my compression to almost 10:1 compression), new crane cams cam, tci torque converter, rebuilt TH350, posi, 3.73 gears, and the list goes on. I just got the car back today from the rear end shop. I just had an Auburn posi unit, and the 3.73:1 rear end gears installed. THE CAR IS INSANE. I have driven the car before with all the motor and tranny goodies, but at the time I only had 2.73:1 gears. I thought it was fast even when I had the old gears in. I can't take off with the current gears as of yet. I still need to break in the gears. I took off with only about 1/4 throttle and it accelerated better then when I gave it full throttle before. I still have more things I wish for in the future, like a digital ignition box, traction bars, better manifold, roller rockers, and the list, of course, goes on. I hope to compete or beat stock SS and Z28 Camaros, new mustang GTs, STIs, and Evos. Not really a question here just letting everyone know another muscle car and Camaro has been resurrected!

good job and congrats...

What do you guys think on my ambitions on what I want to to compete with?

i think you'd run with em

and as i tell everyone.. post some pics of your car. we love to see old camaros.. 2nd gens are some of my favorites

I would if I knew how to post pics

email em to me and i'll post em for you, it's much easier that way than explaining.

very nice btw

Since then I have replaced the grill, aligned the doors and the hood, cleaned the rims, and replaced the sidemarkers and headlights.

very nice.. sweet ride man.. i've always been a sucker for 1st and 2nd gen camaros.

I miss my 2nd Gen. Nice car!

I am going to keep this car till I am old and decrepid. Till then more power is on the way. Sometime this thing is going to get nitrous!!! Cheap horsepower!!!

all my buddies call it "cheater juice" lol.. they wouldnt be saying that i they had it in their cars im sure..

Well there are other things I could do to get more power, but they cost a lot of money. The only other power adder I can do to my car is to install new heads. With that we are talking about $900+ for some dart iron eagle heads. I have already spent $500 rebuilding the old camel humps that I have restored. I dont want to have to rip those off and waste all of that money. Instead I will cheat and put some nitrous on there and well more then make up for the head change. :evillol:

looks nice man, nice to see some 2nd gen camaros on here

that is a very nice camaro you have there, dont juice her, just give her some more muscles!

Geno,
I have no idea where you got the penguins, but that is freakin' hysterical.

earl, found em on a thirdgen.org member's cardomain site. I couldn't resist.

Geno,
