1000hp 427ci LSX, Magnum T56, 69' Camaro, Roadstershop SPEC
Classic vibes, Modern performance. This Don Hardy 1000hp 427ci LSX powered 1969 Chevy Camaro Is Gunning For Muscle Car Of The Year. One key to success with an automotive build is to start with good raw material, and this Camaro was a nice driver when the owner brought it to us. Once the Camaro was in the hands of ProtouringTexas.com. Our crew completely disassembled the drivetrain, suspension, interior, and wiring. The paint and body were in excellent condition. With all components removed, fabrication began with fitting the massive Whipple Supercharged engine on a Roadstershop SPEC chassis, then test fitting the camaro's body. No easy task, but well worth the effort. With the LSX/T56 combination fitted, a full compliment of sheet metal upgrades including smooth firewall, mini tubs for 345 tires, rust repair, etc were added. This horsepower level requires the ability to slow everything down fast, that's why a set of Pro+ 6 piston caliper, 14 inch rotor stopping gear were used from Baer Brakes. With everything installed we could move to exhaust, Ultimate headers was first on the list to find a set of high quality header for the caliber of build. Next up was a quick call to Ticon industry's for a truck load of prepped and ready to use mandrel bends, to complete a hand built stainless steel exhaust. Completing the drivetrain, we used a Wegner Performance accessory drive along with a wiring harness and flashed factory pcm, from PSI Conversion. The interior of this Camaro features a lot of desirable factory options, bucket seats, houndstooth, dash trim, and special instrumentation from Dakota Digital (amps, temp, oil, and fuel), plus upgraded AM-FM-Bluetooth radio, hidden subwoofer and air conditioning that's updated with a Vintage Air system behind the smooth firewall.
