    1968 Camaro Build W/ Duramax

    I used the Duramax throttle pedal. I haven’t seen the lokar pedal yet. I just made a bracket for the duramax pedal to bolt to and welded it to the firewall/toe board.

    1968 Camaro Build W/ Duramax

    Runs great. Haven’t had a single problem with it in the 6 or so years it’s been running. Been contemplating lately about making it a dry sump... we’ll see. Also want to install a vintage air kit in it someday.

    1968 Camaro Build W/ Duramax

    Good looking start to a project. Feel free to ask questions, I know quite a bit about a swap like this as well lol

    1967 RS Duramax Camaro

    Just happened to come by this forum to search for something and saw your comment. The Camaro is doing great. I have made a couple changes to it, upgraded the turbo and remodified the lower oil pan to hold more oil, etc. I’m still working on it and driving it as much as possible. To be...

    72 C10 Longbed Duramax Swap!

    Be careful with the '69 Camaro gas tank idea. Make sure there is a working baffle in the filler neck to only let fuel into the tank and not out. Any quick acceleration or jumping on the throttle from a dead stop might make fuel come out the filler neck.

    72 C10 Longbed Duramax Swap!

    Yes they're the only pumps I'm running, and they're definitely enough for what you will be doing with your motor, and then some. Lots of guys out there making very respectable power with them. The best part is that they're compact and quiet. They're not self priming, so I had to slightly...

    72 C10 Longbed Duramax Swap!

    I'm using twin Kennedy lift pumps in the Camaro and I really like them. They flow plenty of fuel and are virtually silent. You technically don't have to have a lift pump for the Duramax to run, but I would recommend having one. I think most guys that pull the tank out of the cab usually buy...

    1967 RS Duramax Camaro

    Shot a quick video today. Taped my phone to the dash. Took it kinda easy since it wasn't up to operating temperature yet. Not an adrenaline fueled video but it's still a video. Have some more I will try to upload when I get home this evening. http://youtu.be/_T33Ddy1orU

    Top 53 RWYB Street Legal List

    Not sure why the pic shows up sideways, but it's 11.863 at 119mph in the Camaro with Hoosier pro street radials.

    1967 RS Duramax Camaro

    Mid to high 20's mostly city driving having a lot of full throttle runs with Ppe level 7 loaded so far. Haven't taken it on any kind of long distance trip to get a real mpg calculation. Rick's Chevelle has a taller rear end ratio than me so I would assume he is capable of more mpg than me.

    1967 RS Duramax Camaro

    Thanks for the input guys. I was leaning heavily towards a dsp2 with an autocal, 1 mileage tune and 1 haul ass tune.

    1967 RS Duramax Camaro

    Also, of all you guys running EFI, would you recommend an autocal or a DSP switch? The Dmax store guys were offering me an autocal with Idaho Rob's tunes for I think $600. I'm up for all suggestions to help me make a decision so I know what I want when I'm ready to get it.

    1967 RS Duramax Camaro

    Good point on the coolant catch bottle, it's one of the few things to be upgraded soon, and EFI Live is on that upgrade list as well. We took some videos of the dyno day on my digital camera and uploaded them to the FB page, but for whatever reason they wouldn't upload to youtube... still need...

    1967 RS Duramax Camaro

    Realized I only updated the Camaro's FB page so I wanted to post results here. The dyno day was fun and got to meet some new people. Something happened to the dyno early on in the day and wasn't operating properly, so I had to put a load on the motor with the brakes, which I had a hard time...

    LMM: New Danville 68MM Stg2R Review

    When it comes time for me to upgrade the turbo on the LBZ in the Camaro, this is definitely the one I'm getting.

    NHRDA Spring Diesel Nationals returns to Famoso Raceway in 2015

    We're loading up today and heading down. Might catch the pulls if we get there early enough. I'm probably going to run the test and tune class since I think I will be too fast for 11.90 and not consistent or competitive enough to run the faster classes.
