Awesome tribute and build. A literal labor of love. Keep up the great work! You are very talented. I love the Subaru.

Re: Late brothers Camaro I restored
Thanks, the subie is a very fun car. Plenty of power, stops and turns good as well.
Here are some pictures
Headliner done. Used Black foam backed material off ebay
girlfriend got me hawks 6 speed decal, all about details
tube style power steering cooler
lt1 fan set up
Nitrous install. I used a 3/8 to 1/8 adapter to hook my fuel regulator direct to the nitrous solenoid. No rubber hoses needed. Plenty of fuel as I am using a efi pump for carb set up. I will be adding a safety fuel switch to the last port in the mallory regulator set at 4 psi.

Re: Late brothers Camaro I restored
So I have the nitrous all installed, So far so good. Started with .47 jets for a 100 jet with 36 degree locked timing. Worked very well. I then went to a .53 jet for around a 120 jet with 34 degree locked timing. I have run a full bottle through the car with zero issues. It wakes the engine right up. Well worth it.
I am running a jegs window switch turning the nitrous on at 2000 and off at 6000. It has a recall on the window switch and I am spinning the motor 6800.
Just installed a dynotune bottle heater that used a pressure switch. Very nice quality and heats the bottle from 700psi on a cool day to 950ish in 5 minutes. Also bought a blanket to help keep the heat in.
Ordered up a pro 5.0 shifter for the t56
Also installed fiero seat track on driver side seat. Direct bolt in and dropped the seat 1 inch. Helped me with head room quite a bit.

That is one nice car, you did a great job and should be proud as I'm sure your brother would be, you built that car right, just remember to drive safe, but have fun

It was a nice fall day so took a couple hour ride down by the river. Winter will be here shortly so trying to enjoy. Only picture I got.

Very nice car!
What did you do for heater core hoses? Any pictures of the hoses at the heater core?

Re: Late brothers Camaro I restored
I used two 90 degree factory rubber hoses that hook to pre bent steel pipes from the 3.1 parts car. The steel pipes run up behind the valve cover and down the frame until in front of the motor mount. I'll get picture next time I am in shop.

Re: Late brothers Camaro I restored
Haven't posted in awhile. Been busy on other cars. Restored a 79 amx and started on orange cuda. Camaro still looks like how it did when I did it years ago. Still runs strong with no issues. Got a new set of valve springs this week and oil change. Fun car to take out here and there
