Here we go! As I am slowly deciding to grow up I have decided to let my Camaro go! I have owned this car for almost 7 years. I am deciding to sell this car because I want to purchase a nicer family vehicle. This is not my daily driver I rarely drive this car at all. However, when I do the neighbor hood or the city knows it. The car is very clean and gets a lot of looks. This is partially due to it being a muscle car and it sounds like a beast. I have two other vehicles and do not need to sell this car in anyway. Moreover, I am choosing to sell this car because I want something better for my family. I never intended on selling this car. All work that has been performed on this car has been done professionally. I did not keep the receipts as I never intended on selling this car. I am in the process of getting the receipts as proof and if anyone is really concerned business numbers can be provided to you or googled. Collins Automotive Waterford, MI. (built motor and put car together) D&D performance 6 speed specialists in Wixom, MI. (built the viper spec T56) and Midwest Chassis Performance in IL. (built the fab 9" rear).
This car has been very fun and it is an awesome car. The only thing I can honestly say that I did not or do not enjoy about it is the amount of money I have put into the car. This will benefit who ever decides to purchase the car as I have never been able to find a deal like this or even a car with some good parts when purchasing the several other muscle cars I have owned through out my life. This car has been on 3 different dyno's I have had two different tuners and several people tell me I am crazy if I let the car go for less than $15,000. Ultimately I would be more satisfied with that even though that is still a huge loss for me. I have well over 15k into motor trans and rear which all have less than 6,000 miles on them. However, the reserve is set much much lower than that.
If anyone is truly interested in the car text or call me 606-416-2667 and I can text you a clip of the car at idle or maybe even take a new video to satisfy you.
Now Parts! I will miss several things as I probably do not even remember what all I have put on the car.
Motor is a 408 stroker iron block. The block was x-rayed to assure there were no issues. Bored .30 over. The rotating assembly is new and was balanced at the machine shop as well. The bottom end is identical to the LS7 same crank and titanium connecting rods. Custom grind comp cam with .625 lift, Lunati beehive dual valve spring kit LS3 heads from Brian Tooley with TDA valve job, LS3 intake and 42# injectors, SLP flopack with smooth bellows, 92mm Godspeed ported throttle body. Viper spec T56 6 speed manual transmission which is a nasty trans big difference in gear ratio from stock to viper spec, Monster level 3 clutch, Pro 5.0 shifter after market shortened drive shaft. Midwest Chassis and performance fabricated 9" rear end with 389 gears and trutrak. The rear came with the great fab 9" set up everything is adjustable from the tunnel mounted torque arm (with drive shaft safety loop on torque arm bracket mount) lower control arms and 4 way adjustable strange shocks. UMI pan hard bar relocation kit. I did have 243 ported heads on this car and have had 3 different intakes on the car as well. I have even had four different exhausts on it as well. The current set up is 3 inch true duals with magnaflo x pipe and all madrel bends over the rear end. The exhaust is loud and very aggressive people know when you are coming. I also have 1 7/8 stainless steel Texas Speed long tube headers on the car as well. I also recently put new pads and rotors on all four wheels. Went with power stop slotted and cross drilled rotors. I also performed the heater hose mod for the rear springs to level out the car. I have lowering springs as well but with the true duals there was only 2" of ground clearance so I put stock springs back on. I also have a extra pair of like new tires, a couple magnaflo mufflers and a stainless x pipe that will all go with the car.
Honesty!
The car has been to the drag strip one time after my biggest build. The set up was with the 243 heads and LS6 intake as well as SLP loudmouth exhaust and Pacesetter 1 3/4 Longtube headers. I believe all those cubes were being choked a little. I made 5 passes all ranged between 11.98-12.10. I also had Toyo Drag Radials that had been on the car for about 2 years. Now the car has the LS3 heads and intake which gave me 40 rwhp on the dyno alone (dyno dynamics before and after numbers were a gain of 40) plus bigger headers and 3" true duals so who knows what I really picked up hp wise. Plus I have brand new Nitto NT05 Drag Radials on the rear that haven't seen the track and don't even have 200 miles on them. This car is heavier being a convertible and my 60" times sucked. I was spinning and the best 60" was like 1.78 and I was trapping between 119-121 mph. This car with current set up should run real low 11's with slicks I have no doubt that this can be and is a 10 second car. I also put the SW6 hood on it which shaved 40 lbs off the front end. I put a lot of time thought and money into this car and wanted to try to make it bullet proof as well. With that said I rarely drive this bullet proof car and I definitely did not abuse it the way it was meant to be abused in the almost 7 years I have owned the car I have been to the track twice and made less than 12 passes on it.
Now the numbers.
This car was tuned by both Sean Collins and James Short. James Short tunes on a small dyno dynamics dyno and even he says that the dyno reads really low. There are several people in my town that go to Short tuning and are disapointed with their numbers. To me dyno numbers do not always tell the story so I never worried too much about them. Either way there are Corvettes that have gotten like 425-440 rwhp on his dyno and they will dip into the high 10's in the quarter. My car put down 444 rwhp and 419 ft lb tq on that dyno. Collins has a mustang dynometer on his dyno my car puts down 486 rwhp and 462 ft lb tq. I was at a car show with a mobile dynojet and put the car on it just to do it and the car made 501 rwhp and 479 ft lb tq. There was a big discrepancy between the three dynos. To me every dyno is different and I am more curious about mph and numbers at the track. So take it for what its worth.
This is a very clean, sick and nasty car. The car is indigo night paint code Y4 it is a new Hyundai color. The car is a dark blue with purple hues. When the sun shines or at certain times the car looks purple it is a cool color. The car was painted a little over a year ago. The interior is clean. There are no tears in the leather and there are not cracks in the dash or door panels.

These are the five most ridiculous attacks on the Chevy Volt [w/videos]

Thu, Aug 7 2014

It's been a long, strange trip for the Chevy Volt from the time when the now-odd-looking concept version (above) was introduced at the 2007 Detroit Auto Show to today. And now, General Motors announced that the second-generation Chevy Volt will make an appearance at the 2015 Detroit show in January. This debut represents a victory for GM with what has easily become the most politicized car of the 21st Century. There are plenty of reasons for someone to criticize the Volt, but what's amazing is just how much anti-Volt energy has been spent not on things like the styling or how the EREV setup is not as efficient as a pure-EV powertrain. As we wait for more official information on the new Volt, we thought it would be fun to go back and look at some of the most wildly incorrect reporting and strangest attacks on the Volt from the archives. There is so much good stuff out there, it was hard to pare the list down, but these are our five favorites. Amazingly, they're not all clips from Fox News. Check 'em out below. 5. GM Is Going To Stop Making The Chevy Volt In The US Do you remember when GM was about to move Volt production to China? Well, yeah, this was reported back in early 2012 when a GM executive mentioned that the automaker would get benefits of building the Volt in the places where it sells them. This was spun into a story of GM taking Obama bailout money and then running to China. The Blaze was not happy: "Given the fact that Federal government helped itself to millions and millions of taxpayer dollars under the pretense that it was going to combat high unemployment by creating 'green jobs,' it would seem that moving research and development (and possibly manufacturing) overseas is slightly, well, counterproductive." Well, of course, that never happened. There's no way to say that GM will never build a version of the Volt in China, but the news we hear rumors of these days is that GM is going to move production of more Volt parts (specifically, the motors) to Michigan from overseas. 4. The Chevy Volt Is A Fire Trap There has never been a Volt that just spontaneously lit up while driving down the road. Yes, there were Volts that caught on fire. Yes, that's a scary thing. But there has never been a Volt that just spontaneously lit up while driving down the road. These were crashed test vehicles with destroyed batteries and plugged-in vehicles that were not the cause.

2020 Chevy Trax spied sporting design cues from the new Blazer

Wed, Oct 3 2018

We saw spy shots in August for what we thought was either a redesigned Chevrolet Trax or new GMC subcompact crossover. At the time we were leaning Chevy. But after this latest batch of spy shots taken near GM's proving grounds, we're now thinking this one is the Trax replacement and the other one was a GMC. For one, the thin row of LEDs looks remarkably similar to the 2019 Chevy Blazer's LED strip. The additional light slightly below that is similar to the Blazer as well, leading us to believe that the next Trax will have a Blazer-esque front end. At first glance, this vehicle looks slightly larger than today's Trax with a much brawnier shape than the current blob-like design. The rear roof cladding could be hiding the same sloped rear window with spoiler hangover we see on the Blazer. Circling back to the other small GM crossover we caught testing, this one doesn't have those Blazer elements. The curved windshield and sloping roof are like those of the GMC Terrain, as are the horizontal grille bars. By contrast, the above car has a straighter windshield and a roof shaped more like the Blazer. One element that does seem to diverge from the new Blazer are the taillights, but they don't exactly look production-ready anyway. If we're right about this being the next Trax (and we're pretty sure we are) then this looks to be a more distinctive vehicle than what it will replace. The mirrors have left their awkward spot on the doors, and it's shaping up to be a much sportier looking crossover as a whole. This vehicle will most likely end up being a 2020 model year car, and if so, we would expect to see undisguised photos of both it and the assumed GMC version next year.

GM is the latest automaker accused of diesel emissions cheating

Thu, May 25 2017

Volkswagen and Ram need to make room on the diesel-emissions bench for General Motors. America's largest automaker was accused in a lawsuit on Thursday of rigging hundreds of thousands of diesel trucks with at least three so-called defeat devices to ensure that the trucks would meet federal and state emission standards, even if they generated more pollution in real-world driving. According to the complaint, on-road emissions testing conducted for the plaintiffs found that Duramax-equipped trucks produced NOx pollutants, comprised of nitrogen and oxygen atoms, two to five times higher than legally permitted, and "many times" higher than their gasoline counterparts. The proposed class-action lawsuit was filed in federal court in Detroit on behalf of people who own or lease more than 705,000 Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra pickup trucks fitted with "Duramax" engines from 2011 to 2016 model years. The lawsuit seeks remedies including possible refunds or restitution for lost vehicle value, plus punitive damages. It adds to legal problems for Detroit-based GM, which has already paid about $2.5 billion in penalties and settlements over faulty ignition switches linked to 124 deaths. GM joins at least five automakers whose diesel emissions have been scrutinized by regulators or consumers. They include VW, which has admitted to cheating; Mercedes-Benz parent Daimler; Fiat Chrysler Automobiles, Peugeot and Renault. GM spokesman Dan Flores called the claims "baseless," and said the trucks comply with US Environmental Protection Agency emissions standards and California's own tough standards. Shares of GM were down 69 cents, or 2.1 percent, at $32.50 in afternoon trading, after earlier falling to $31.93. The GM lawsuit was filed by several law firms, including Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro, which helped reach multibillion-dollar settlements with VW on behalf of drivers and dealers. The case is Fenner et al v General Motors LLC et al, US District Court, Eastern District of Michigan, No. 17-11661. The named plaintiffs are Andrei Fenner of Mountain View, California and Joshua Herman of Sulphur, Louisiana. They said they would not have bought their respective 2011 Sierra and 2016 Silverado trucks, or would have paid less for them, had they known about the alleged rigging. Joseph Spak, an RBC Capital Markets analyst, in a research report said "negative publicity" from the lawsuit could drive buyers to trucks from Ford or even Fiat Chrysler's Ram.
