1quick's I got tired of fwd but not the 3800 build thread

[1quick]

im sure you can get away with a/c you will just have to kick the down pipe out the front somewhere, im going to dump it right under the front fender with a muffler on the street and, just make a little turndown for at the track

I actually really like the all black engine! Looks like its dressed for a funeral when they get spanked by a turbo 3800 HAHA!

Well, I'm going to try to actually kick the downpipe right out the factory exhaust location...down the D/S and under the trans. I think that's where my big issue will be. I might end up making brackets to mount the A/C compressor right where the it is on the 2.2. I haven't quite figured it out because I need to get stuff together for mock up.

[1quick]

few more things done i plan to start hitting it pretty hard now that the weather is getting nicer

[Fivefingerdeathpunch]

[1quick]

I'll have some more soon, hopefully pulling the fuel tank and stock lines today cleaning up the mounting straps and maybe getting my new fuel cell installed

[1quick]

So you are completely custom fabbing everything? There is alot of work going into this camaro. What are your goals? Will you cage it? Sub-12 seconds?

[1quick]

im looking to put the car in the bottom 10's high 9's with good luck lol, I would like it to make over 600whp and trap 140+ in the 1/4, i will cage it maybe i want to see how well it performs first before i go there, its going to be more of a summer street car but i do intend to track it atleast once a month as time premits

[1quick]

also i didnt build the tank i had it built for me i cant tig yet

[GTPSHAWTY]

price when finished?

[1quick]

the whole car probably 15-20k i havent added it up but id bet ive got every bit of 15 into just parts at this point

[GTPSHAWTY]

i mean when u selling it

[1quick]

i wont be selling it for quite a while, the nice thing about the camaro is when i get bored i swap the k member and engine harness and hello turbo lsx everything else bolts right up, throw together a new turbo kit buy rails and 2 extra injectors and im back on the road

[sdavis11b]

Do you fab your own turbo kits yourself? Its good work man! What are your plans for the back half? Ladderbar? 4- Link? Your gonna have to put that power down somehow.

I did fab the turbo kit and reworked the radiator supports myself, I have a full adjustable aftermarket stock style suspension for it with coil overs for the front and triple adjustable rear shocks

[sdavis11b]

Thats gonna be one heck of a car. Its going to be hilarious when you tell them its a turbo v-6.

[1quick]

shifter mounted still need some triming

tank and fuel pump mounted and plumbed i still have to run the return im waiting on a couple fittings to come for my regulator

[1quick]

and i set the motor and trans so i know where the rails are going to be exactly to plumb the fuel system, i might just leave it in there i dont think i really need to do anything else to the motor or trans

Keep up the good work! I just picked up a 2000 v6 camaro and it will be turbo as well this summer! Probably not that much power since I have to keep the stock 5 spd for a bit.. eventually it will be t56 swapped though. I can't stand a slush box :P It's just not for me, awesome build though! hope you keep it updated!
