Not much under the hood, 350ci with small cam and 2500 stall, 3.42 rear, about 300hp, but I think the car weighs 3800lbs. Dual exhaust I took off another Camaro and redid the welding and fitting till it is very symetrical and exactly level, ran it to exhaust in a way where you really do not see the exhaust but it does exhaust out the back, I do not like seeing mufflers hanging down low. Underneath has been degreased and cleaned and painted too. As clean underneath as it is outside.

355ci 300hp, 2500 stall with 3.42 single leg rear and 3800lbs, not much for that much weight but original was around 180hp. Slow by any of my measurements but faster than stock. Got a few more parts to install this weekend like door panels, turn signals and the interior and exterior should be done and the only thing left should be chasing a few electrical gremlins and starting to work on making brackets to fit the AC with headers. My stater is bad in the torque convertor so I have to pull it and have it rebuilt. But with it getting close this is the most excited I''ve been about this car. It really is looking good and the interior looks nearly new with the exception of a couple knobs and the covers on the seatbelts which I cannot seem to locate.
