1999 Chevrolet Camaro SS SLP #3418
Rocking over 200K miles and still good compression and runs great. Hooker long tube headers, SLP high flow cats and Loudmouth with Moroso spiral mufflers and stock SS tips (pictures are still with the Flowmaster muffler). It sounds deep and mellow with a good performance sound. I also have a LS6 intake, 28# injectors, MTI lid, K&N filter, 160 thermostat, ported throttle body, cut air box/ram air, throttle body bypass, !EGR, !AIR, Pro 5.0 shifter with Hurst leather knob. The only other performance piece I want is an under drive pulley and I’ll be satisfied until the rebuild/swap.
I also have Koni 4/4 SA's, Summit (Eibach) lowering springs, rear sway bar, strut tower bar, tubular lower control arms and panhard bar, LCA relocation brackets, subframe connectors and would like to eventually get the Strano springs and sway bars, and some tubular adjustable front control arms. I also need to get a Tick clutch master cylinder since redline shifting is imposible and I did the drill mod and not much improvement was had.
Appearance wise it is pretty much stock but the SS looks good enough already. I got the T/A gauge bezel which cleans up the instrument panel and looks better. I put a set of LT1 style tweed seats. The Hurst leather shift knob and short shifter make it easy to bang thru the gears. Leather shift boot and e-brake boot also add a nice touch. Whistler headlight mod done but need to update the pics. The projector lights are okay but too much in my opinion, borders on rice. I might get some clear front corner lights eventually but that is about all.
I have a complete set of C5 Corvette brakes to put on when I get the time, red calipers, cross drilled and slotted rotors, SS braided lines. I'm going to drive with the stock engine until it goes which will probably be a while and I’ll either rebuild it with heads and cam upgrade or drop in LS2,3,6,7, whichever is cheaper, easier and will still give daily driver comfort and reliability. At that point I will add true dual exhaust pipes and some wider black ZR-1 wheels and a 12 bolt axle with 4.11 gears.
