hey BlackTopKing, that flip-up front end is all fiberglass. my son backed into the nose of it one day and put two cracks right in the grill. needless to say, i was not a happy camper when i saw it. but it was an accident so what can i say. hey your bird looks great! what kind of times are you turning?
Supreme Member
Thanks,
That is a bummer with the front. I have seen then on alot of track cars but not to many 3rd gens. Always like the ideal and the look.
I actually run tomorrow at Atco, but Est 11.5 on motor. Maybe a 11.3 with some juice.
I am still under 2000miles on the new motor though, so kinda trying to be EZ...
Keep ya posted and if I make it out there Ill get pics

Here's the street look

Here's the track look (NO DIFFERENCE).

I'm making ALOT of changes this winter like building a new higher compression 383, using a HSR, and upgrading from the P1SC to a F1 Procharger, oh yeah...some slicks too.

118 is my best mph on motor so far. I hooked up the microswitch and threw some VP C12 and a 150 shot in it on 10/16 but the throttle cable broke on me in first gear on my attempt with the nitrous so I guess I'll find out what it will do with the 150 and up next season. but I got my 11.41 @ 118 that night so it wasn't all bad I guess
thats exactly like my motor. i been 119 on motor and with my rich 150 shot spraying at top of first, i went 125. should go 128 with the new tune. That shot was RICH so it probly wasnt giving me the 150 hp its rated for. 
for spraying a 100 shot and at top of 2nd, thats a good gain. You'll be well into the 10's with a 150 and spraying earlier

My goal was to get that high 10 this year but something stupid like a broken lokar throttle cable kept me from getting it! now my work schedule won't let me go back to the track before they close!Originally Posted by Orr89RocZ

JohnfwZ28,
I am at a lost for words............... I live in Atlanta, the Stockbridge area and I am currently building an 84 Camaro... My question is; Who fabricated your front end to flip foward. Any more detailed pictures or etc. would be well appreciated! Thank you in advanced.

Here's a couple of mine....
Depending on my mood I might trailer it out there or drive it. Usually at the strip I will run skinnies up front, open the cutout, remove front swaybar, and ice on the intake.

TO THE GUYS THAT HAVE PROSTARS:
I want to get these wheels and I need to know once and for all if I need LONGER wheel studs (and what length) OR if the stock wheel studs will work fine. Half of the people say they have stockers and half say you need longer studs, I need a definitive answer from the people who actually put them on. thanks

evilcartman did you need the longer studs or you have stockers?
Supreme Member
I had to switch to the longer studs. Really don't notice them that much with those wheels but with the earlier 15 inch, they stuck out quite a bit.

she is no rocket. our local track sucks for weekly test and tune. and to rent the track it costs more than entering the world street nationals, so i entered in heavy street. i ran a 28x10.5 slicks against all these big tire cars and i qualified 33 ofa 32 car field 9.51 and the bump was 9.50 something.Originally Posted by Rumblin70SS
