96 Camaro V6 to V8 build "Found out what the issue was"

[1ncognegro]

I purchased a convertible V6 Camaro in Dec but decided I wanted more power under the hood. Bought a LT1 350 block from a homie of mines in VA Beach for $200 to do a engine swap but lucked up and found another Camaro for sale for $400 from this desperate college cac hurting for money down the street from me Interior and exterior is mint just needs a lil cleaning and had a blown head gasket. I'm in the process of buying all necessary parts check out my video and I will be updating and doing a blog. I want to get this car show ready. I love 4th gen Camaro's and always wanted one as a kid. Plus you don't see to many nikkas with them. I also will be fiber glassing a box for my Sundown audio 12 pushing 1250w RMS and and double din TV with a tablet installed. Let me know what you think.


*edit* This is my Camaro I'm currently driving. Will be giving it to my lil sis for her first car when my other car is completed

What are you doing with the carburetor and intake manifold? I like the beehive springs, lifters and rocker upgrades. What heads and cam are you going with?

My personal opinion don't use those Champion plugs.

I'm doing away with the fuel injection and going carb. Fuel mileage will be garbage but I don't care lol. Got renegade heads and a Edlebrock Camshaft. I'm with you on the plugs they were given to me by the Napa manager just cuz but I'm looking for some good wires and some nice plugs when I order my Clutch Set and Pistons next week. This shyt is very time consuming I might add lol

Heres some pics and vids of my sound system.

Sundown shyt knocks heavy and require a good setup to feed it properly. I have my power acoustik amp only feeding it 1500 RMS for right now. I have upgraded the big 3 (power, ground and alternator) to 0 guage wire and added a battery in the back with a isolator. On my Camaro that's being rebuilt I will be upgrading to a high output alternator because my lights dim hard. I built a small box to test it out before I installed it.

Wanted to fiberglass my subwoofer in the trunk. So I'm pretty much using my convertible Camaro as a practice car at this point lol

Why do you have cam and springs from different manufacturers?

Comp Cam is a really good brand and I got those springs for the low. Couldn't find a Comp Cam Camshaft that I liked. Called JEGS and found a Edlebrock one that will work with the whole set up but included springs so I could go either way

I was going MB Quart or Infinity but I'm still undecided. I need good quality sound but I'm not a big tweeter person. Piercing hi hats have me

The extra weight of the subs might slow you down a bit
