Re: Third Gen Videos

There are two video's I'm searching for links to. I found one mis-named. But they were made by ArcticWS6 on these forums. Trying to avoid duplicates on youtube before I upload my copies.

Re: Third Gen Videos

Crazy. I spent about 30 minutes looking for video#1 and couldn't find it. Then it magically pops up on a related search.

These were put together by Arctic WS6. Strangely enough, the only user account I can find close to that name has 8 posts, and none of them are the video. I can only assume the user name has been changed, or deleted in the last 10 years.

Here is Video 1 and 2.

EDIT: These are not the correct audio, apparently at some point its been replaced. I will upload the original WMV's to Googledrive and post those links. Youtube would likely flag them for music copyright and mute them.

Original Video's posted back in the "day".

Re: Third Gen Videos

Nice! Thanks for posting...

Here's one 4th Gen Camaro with the XFI292 Cam in a LT1 350...

I know 4th Gen is a slippery slope, but I posted because technology from that era can be applied to 3rd Generation Camaro's.

Its thirdgen video's, not 4th gen video's.

Doesn't matter what powers it, but it should be Thirdgen.

Re: Third Gen Videos

That said, if one wants to discuss 4th, 5th, and 6th gen power train swaps in the Engine Swap section I'm all ears, or is that eyes.

Here's my LT1 Thirdgen.

Its Flash. Flash is a giant POS on macs ever since Apple stopped producing their own flash plugin and started relying on Adobe to do it.

Adobe's implementation is buggy and inefficient. There is a reason Jobs was pushing HTML5.

Thanks for posting that knowledge... I had had a long day at work and was a little abrasive in my response to QwkTrip.

Re: Third Gen Videos

This is not as nicely done as the videos above, but holds some history for me...

I was a Jr in highschool and my friend got a new Mustang GT, black, red stripe, T-tops and 5 speed... it was fun and fast....

Forward quite a few years... I bought a 91 Formula 5 Speed TPI with the G92 equivalent package....

The camaro loses the first race, missed a gear, but 2nd race takes him

Re: Third Gen Videos

Here my latest walk around video of my car, haven't had it out too much this year to make a new one. There are other videos of her on my channel though. Since last year, I've replaced the old rear with a 10 bolt 3.73 posi disc rear, a little exhaust work, and added a little more miles.
