Here are some pics of my engine with a Holley Stealth Ram and new Chevrolet Bowtie valve covers. I used Trick Flow centerbolt valve cover adapters in order to use the perimeter bolt valve covers. The adapters were easy to install and included everything! I love the Bowtie cast aluminum covers! They are TALL! No rocker arm clearance problems here!

I ****ING LOVE YOUR ENGINE... love how you pick the colors etc...

 

That looks awesome, very clean. :hail:

 

Top notch! You have good taste

 

Thanks, Dudes...

 

WOW...............................

that is really sharp. Man I like!!!! What are the specs on the engine? Again, looks really REALLY good.

 

Ignore ^ that I just opened my eyes. It is too late.

 

damn dude that is nice....

right now i am putting in a ZZ4 with stealth ram myself, i hope it looks as clean as that, how did u get the bowtie on the front part of the stealth ram? and what did u paint the top with the red stripes with?

 

If you ever run out of plates, just eat off of the engine.

 

awesome :hail: :hail:

 

Looks great!!! How about a pic of the whole car. Are you running a stock hood?? If so how is the clearance? I heard the Stealth would fit but it was tight.

 

Here's the whole car:

 

Excellent looking Engine..and car. Good work Scott. Keep us posted as to how she runs, and what kind of time you get at the track.

Will do! I'm hoping for at least mid 12's on street tires, but who knows...I just can't wait until spring!

 

Looks very nice. I like the touch of the non center bolt valve covers.

 

very nice, that is the true epitamy of what 3rd gen camaros should and can look like, very nice job man, and dont listen to anything negative that any1 tells you

 

looks killer....

:hail:

 

are those the crinkle finish style covers?i want to go with that theme for my cars motor,and prolly do the same thing on my talon.bring matching cars to a cruise in and see how that goes.very nice car man,youre an inspiration to many i imagine!

 

Nice motor dude!! Cant wait to see that thing when shes up and running. Nice job!

 

wow, thats very awesome! very clean and looks great!

 

Car looks great, do you have any pics from the rear?

 

Thanks for the compliments! Here's a shot from the rear:

 

If I ever buy an RS to mod (the car in my dreams is white with a five speed heh), I will follow your lead on the SS emblems. Awesome car all around.

Peace,

K

 

Thats how exactly i want my motor to look if Im goin n/a. thats badass dude.

 

Well, I'll get on the bus and say magnificent work!!
That is one of the cleanest and best looking engines I've seen. The entire car is a piece of work too, great job.

 

one word.....sharp, nice job man

 

Excuse me while i go change my pants

 

sweet ride man.. where did you get the valve covers ?

 

Summit - $107 - they are the Proform cast aluminum ones. Nice and thick and they will keep valvetrain noise down (my Moroso cast ones sure did).

 

Looks great!! I love the valve covers, wish they made center bolt.

 

hows the car doing scott C?
looks good, BTW are those ZR1 rims? where did you get them?
biker

 

Unfortunatley, it currently looks exactly the same as in the pictures

Yes, those are ZR1/SS rims. I got them from SLP with tires about 2 years ago. They still only have about 200 miles on them!

We are in the deep freeze here in Chicago, so I have zero motivation to go out to the garage. I really only have one good days worth of work to do before it's ready to drive...Then it goes right to the shop for a Tremec 5 speed swap! Stay tuned

 

good *** everythings spotless... lol looks badass man... valve covers and stealth ram really compliment eachother, especially with the colors.

 

:hail: :hail: beutiful looks absolutely perfect imho.

 

THEY DO!!!!!

gm performance parts online has them...... i wanted them but my dealer couldn't get em in in enough time... a pitta huh?

 

:hail:

 

That looks bad ***...

It may just be the angle of the shots, but.. that Stealth Ram will clear the hood, right?

It looks like the hood wouldn't be able to close with that system bolted on...

-LJ

 

it fits the stock hood

 

Impressive.


I have something to strive for now!

 

How much did it cost you to build that e ngine ?

 

Scott,

Are those 17x11 in the rear? They look to stick out further than mine?

 

Mmm very nice. Wish my engine looked like that

 

I think the word "wow" sums it up... don't forget to plug in those injectors on the drivers side hehehehe

 

the front part is the throttle body, you order that seperate, and you can get it with bowties and some other things on it

 

I'd say I've got about $4,000 invested in the engine.


They are 17x9s. Maybe the 4th gen rear makes them look like they are wider? I actually thought they looked wider with the 3rd gen rear and 2" spacers.
