I dont have a lot of camaro knowlege so please help me out here. I was thinking about getting a dirt cheap v6 camaro and swapping out the engine and converting to stick.. (found one running for like 700). or should i spend the extra cash for a v8? its like 2,000 more.. I do plan on turbo charging it. any information would help. how hard would it be to convert a v6 to a v8? is it more than just the engine and tranny and stuff.. please help. I just sold my 500hp EVO.
@youngonesunique You would be better off just spending the extra cash on a v8. You could spend anything between $2-3000 on the conversion alone and that's if everything goes along smoothly. If you have any specific questions feel free to ask I own a 94 z28 and my brother owns a 98 T/A so I have some knowledge about these cars.
@raulz28 you have a 94 lt1?could you help me out with decent mods to a 93 lt1 z28?im looking to spend under 1500,i want at least headers and intake and heads,is that possible?im hoping for 300hp if i could get to that or more on my budget would be amazingg
@xcrunnersrock yea I have a 94. I'm guessing you mean 300rwhp? I would do longtube headers, full exhaust, CAI. and a tune, that should get you very close. After that some gears I would recommend 3.73s and a high stall converter but they won't add horsepower and would knock off several tenths off your ET. You don't need heads for that power level, a cam would put you over 300rwhp easily but that would put you over your budget by a lot with all the supporting valvetrain components.
@raulz28 i meant 300bhp,but if 300rwhp is possible with just 1500 dollars of mods then im all for it,so longtubes,exhaust,cai,tune,and 3.73's and idk say a 3000 stall would be 1500 or less?
@xcrunnersrock 300bhp is way easy as it comes stock with 275bhp. $450 for header/ypipe combo less if you go used(+15-25hp), $400 for cat back exhaust(+5-10hp), $200 for a CAI(+10hp), and $200 for a tune(20-30hp). After that some 3.73s for like $200 to get into the powerband a lot sooner and you will be easily into the mid 13s maybe even some low 13s depending on DA. That's about $1450 if you do your own work. A good stall would be around $500 so that would put you over budget. Hope that helps.
Your start-up sequence would confuse me lol. I'd be flipping wrong switches and killing my fuel pump in a hurry ha. I assume one of those white switches is hard wired fuel pump, but what about the rest? Sweet car by the way!
@mixtape86 the switches are for the fuel pump, electric water pump, electric fans, ignition solenoid, nitrous arm, meth injection arm, starter, marker lights, headlights, and high beams.
the box is a pre-made from ARC. it makes it a lot easier to wire a car. ( i cut every stock wire out of the car)
why you got "SLOW POS" cardboard lic plate lol
