'87 RS Camaro w/ '87 iroc rims.
Original "Dealer" paint. This was a dealer showroom car, 1st year limited Cailf RS edition.
HMS custom billet aluminum strut mounts with increased strut travel and Aurora prm spherical race bearings, Edelbrock 3pt brace. 4-core custom radiator. Custom fabbed frame support brace (removable) to further box and support quick ratio steering box. GW steering brace also under the front(not in picture). Koni sport struts, slotted rotors w/ Stillen carbon race pads, ARP wheelstuds, Kyokugen 7 sided titanium lugnuts, Baer aluminum bumpsteer tierods, Braided lines. Supension Spring Specialist 800lb linear fronts on a lightweight V6 car, 34mm soild chromemoly front swaybar.
Front ride height, Its low but has never rubbed due to the lightweight powerplant and stiff suspension. KDW Vs Goodyear GSD3- These new KDW BFG's have been on the car now for almost 2 years- hated them new, hate them even more now. The Goodyears were a far better performing tire- and looked better also.
The car currently has 26K on a new 2.8 crate motor. about 1 1/2 yrs ago I decided to either dump the car/ or put some money into it and keep it. It has always handled much better than any V8 Camaro I have driven because of the lightweight V6 powerplant- I concluded to build a fun street car that retains a 60*V6, but decided not to even bother with the crappy 2.8 motor. Instead I am currently acquiring and fabricating performance parts for a one-of-a-kind 3.5l 60*V6 streetcar- I don't need another garage queen, I already own a 540rwhp '68 Vette- I want something fun for everyday useage. New 6 piston Wilwood front setup soon to be fitted
Intake flow is a major hurdle with this tight 60* design. They will not flow well above 4500 rpms. I have decided to custom build my own intake because no aftermarket one exists. I have enlarged the upper plnum to 4.1 quarts and increased the stock 52mmTB (308cfm) to a billet aluminum 62MM unit (435cfm). This design has also shortened the runners for higher rpm flow. I also greatly increased thestock middle and lower runner port sizes. Right picture shows runner size compared to stock upper plenum.
The first thing I aquired (with luck) was custom headers and Y-pipe. Turns out there's a guy named Greg at PF&E in Michigan makes race headers for C5's. He happens to own a 60*V6 Camaro and mocked up these headers for me- they are stainless steel and ceramicoated! One of a kind so far. Thanks Greg.
AGR quick ratio steering box with billet end caps. Flaming River u-joints and shaft. Rusting already after only 4 months
