WOW! Thats a lot of cutting. I wish you the best of luck, because this is a serious bitch of a project. I cant wait to see how these cars turn out, gonna be some good times.

As for tubing I have been thinking the same thing. Where are you located?



Some updates:
Started making a throttle pedal and brake pedal. Almost done those 2.

Pulled motor and trans back out and started playing with clutches and flywheels. The FWD flywheel is not campatible with the t5, even though the disk fits the shaft. So I got a camaro flywheel and almost new LUK clutch today. The camaro flywheel is thicker and offset. Hopefully I can use that flywheel with my FWD spec stage 3 clutch, because it may grab better than a stock 2.8 camaro clutch. If not, then LUK it is. Drifting is real hard on clutches....

Finished my under chassis brace. Damn the floor is strong now!

Yeah im guessing the whole tunnel will be the same height as the rear seat at the bottom portion of the cushion, The prob with the bender is im in michigan so i would be able to ship the part unless you came here and wanted to bend one on site im thinking of this bender JD2 model 32 with an air ram from harbor freight.

It would be sick to build a cage. Ill probably look local for someone to bend some pipe for me. I can design it on cad then have someone bend it

Heres my under car floor/trans/tunnel/subframe connector. I can jump on the floor now with minimal flex. I love it. I would of welded it but went with bolts to make trans removal easier.



Starting on tunnel. Making it out of 1/8" sheet is a waste of my time and adds weight but oh well, its what I have.


Pulling motor


My motor has feet does yours?


Trans still in


Playing with clutch combos



Clutch is gonna be fun. Toyota hydraulics, fwd clutch, rwd flywheel. Fun Fun

Another issue I will need to cross is the fact that my TCE crank trigger wont work with the camaro front pullies. Its either make megasquirt work with the stock 3500 sensor which some people are doing now, or mount the tce trigger a different way

use a internal trigger and sell the external one superdave and marsman hacked up their trigger wheel and made that would which imo is a waste/.

you going to have fun cutting the top nub off the camaro timing cover just got dont cutting it flush and had to use a angle grinder recp saw and another tool imma try to make mine look stock though it'll be tough as hell

What nub are you referring to? I didnt plan on modding the camaro part but if I have to well I guess I have to

On the camaro timing cover there is a small piece at the top of it that needs cut off so the lower intake can seat correctlly i would have snapped a photo but thought you knew what i was talking about.

If you have access to a band saw it will be cake but otherwise i spent atleast a hour on it with the tools i had.

Damn. Better get one soon and use the band saw at my work before it gets sold. Fun

Anyone have a timing cover laying around with a water pump?

First drift event is april 30th. Gonna miss that one it looks like.


Been hammering down and most of the big parts of this job are done. Its the little parts that are killing me, exhaust, pedals, sheet metal fab, accessory mounting, wiring.

Damn rwd swaps take forever.

you got almost 2 months u better pick up the pace lol

I meant march 30th. Im screwed

I would be more than surprised if you could make something like that in one winter, custom parts take time..

Yeah it's frustrating. It took me 2 nights just to make custom pedals. Every part I make takes a night and I only get to work on it 2 to 3 times a week
