It's a 6 speed car....pretty stock only mods are;

Thanks in advance guys,

Lenny

330-350rwhp with a wet shot, 350-360 dry shot. As per times, it depends on your nitrous kit, and you as a driver. Probally mid-low 13's.

If this car makes 350whp....It should run mid 12s without a problem. Are we talking just the shot, or the shot and cam?

With that white cobra in my sig I went 13.10 at 106 and that car only dynoed 289/286 N/A

Just the shot with existing mods.

Keep in mind with the camaro that all you're going to have on it is dragslicks, no suspension modifications at all (sfc's, lca relocation, tubular tunnel brace, etc, etc, are needed, you know the drill). You're going to spin like hell, especially if you dont have a progressive nitrous controller. Hence why I said mid to low 13's.

I remember the car. Made some sigs for him. Congrats on the new purchase.

cool man.. nice to hear from you.

red9450 09-12-2008 04:47 PM

thanks man....I'm excited to have this as my new daily driver. I have the 07 ranger for bad weather, the Z as my nice weather daily, and the cobras for the weekend street warriors.....Now I can get rid of my sunfire...YEAH!

welcome to the dark side! Yea the Camaro should be a fun strip car!

red9450 09-12-2008 07:57 PM

how do the rear ends hold up on these cars??? Thinking of just throwing a set of 4.10s in it and hoping it holds, but what kind of limitations do they have when pushed??

the rear end holds up fine for a mild build up on the motor, I would upgrade it when your going past 400whp.

97z2801ss 09-14-2008 09:54 PM

the rear end is the weakest link on these cars

ITSA6 09-14-2008 10:41 PM

nice addition to your collection. should be alot of fun.

I understand it took so long for a boy like you to step up and become a man and own a Camaro...lol jp Looking good.

Its tough to answer that question, because i've put in 4.10's for one guy and he tears up the rear end in months, and i've put them in others with no issues for years, all with 350+hp.

Personally, i'd just throw some 4.10's in there and see how it does. What have you got to loose? You'd be buying another rear end anyway lol.
