The 1984 Z28 build!!!

Hi new here, but im a 3rd gen lover and currently redoing mine! Tell you a lil about the car its a 1984 Camaro Z28 was bone stock 305TBI 5speed, open rear end 3:08s, body was what sold me to buy it, flawless straight no bondo. Just got the motor finished which is a brand new gm crate bare block, bored 60 over, speed-pro powerforged pistons, eagle connecting rods, all arp bolts, speed-pro bearings, 292H comp-cam, 194 heads, ported and and rebuilt, with Proform roller rockers, Eagle 400 internally balanced forged crank, Weiand high rise open plane intake, 650 speed demon carb, pete jackson gear drive, should be good for 400+hp, just had a 700r4 rebuilt to with hold 550hp, 2800rpm BDR stall, aluminum drive shaft, Richmond 4:10 ring and pinion set, richmond mini spool, and a whole lot more, full cyberdyne digital gauges, b&m console model ratchet shifter, jegs SFI-29-1 light wieght flexplate, The car should run in the mid to high 12s with stickys, my 1999 Trans Am firehawk #431 ran 13.2s stock on drag radials!! Take a look at the pics the car will be painted by next weekend, black/silver metallic, with copper flake in the clear! Weld 8-hole 15" wheels! Should be sweet when its all done! Dont have pictures of everything yet will have really soon tho!
