Yes why not, has advantage of 110 octane number. Look in Australia, them Ozzies like to tinker with LP, they have very nice LP carbs (individual stacks) and such. Very very nice!!

Incredible build. Way to take what someone else had only scratched the surface on and made it all yours. Very tastefully done.

The lower control arm mounts has the 2 lower positions incorporated into them like the aftermarket relocation mounts. Shock mounts have a lower position also.


Finally, got a header leak, well a collecter and exhaust came unbolted leak, and get back to tuning. Almost have the SC braced enough and all the oil leaks fixed(Damned SBCs!)

Thanks, IF it was back "in the show" I had already left for a wedding


Unfortunately I had to replace the torque arm in the parking lot before I brought it over there, due to a burnout loading it into the car trailer...


Here are a couple pictures from Charlotte

I love the 9" setup. Did you fab all that yourself? Also, where did you get the brackets for it?

Also, how do the wheels fit? Any rubbing issues?

Re: 1987 Supercharged TPI w/ megasquirt/complete repaint build thread

It's the one thing u never want to use, a toe hook since the car is to low to attach a strap to the factory hooks without damaging the chin spoiler.

Re: 1987 Supercharged TPI w/ megasquirt/complete repaint build thread

Thanks again everyone. I haven't noticed any new replies here.

-The rear was pulled from a junkyard by "DeanJ" on here. He then stripped all of the factory brackets and used an old 10 bolt for the brackets. He cut them off and then welded them to the new one. Looks GREAT! The T/A is also all custom made by him. It is SO stout. The only thing I'm looking at is how to get the T/A mounted on the transmission.


-The piece on the front is a tow hook(that actually works!). I have pulled it over a mile straight with no adverse affects!

-Wheels fit GREAT. VERY slight rub on the front two at fulllock only on the inner fenders. When I say minor, I mean minor. I would go with this size if I had to do it again!

-I'd love to be COTM!!

Mount it to crossmember you will brake trans if mounted there. Spike_z modified his to work for long tube. Very similar to your setup

Do you have any idea where that hood came from? Because I have one just like it that came off of my Camaro but its beat to trash. I never saw another hood like it until I saw your Camaro, so do you have any idea where it came from?
