About my Camaro

Had car since 1988. Engine 360ci 10.8:1 comp was built by Atlantic Motorsports in New Milford,CT. It was dynoed by the legendary Pat Musi, it made 509hp&450ftlbs, and 709HP&650ftlbs on NOS. Trans- Turbo 400 reverse manual valve body. 10 bolt rear w/Eaton posi 3:90 gears, Moser axles w/c-clip eliminators. Hotchkis 2" lowering coils springs. Edelbrock IAS shocks at all four corners. Stock interior w/8-point S&W roll bar. Paint is Violet Pearl from House of Kolors and was applied by Nelson Rosado auto restorations in Ny. Future plans is to hand the car over to my son when he turns 16. (He's only 2-1/2 now, so I have a while to enjoy it!)

I'm a big chevy guy and I like what you have done with your car.  I like that sleeper look, no major body upgrades but a big upgrade under the hood.
