I think Steve is just teasing us by posting those pics, as it is still at his shop.

Really heavy duty parts good to 1,000 rwhp. But I'm confident that Rob and/or Tom will find a way to break them anyway.

What exactly are you guys doing to the rear end to make the extra power hook to the ground?

We have had talks with a suspension copmany in regards to that, but until we get the car and get some track time, kind of hard to say for sure what we will do.

Is the original motor and components included with the sale of the car? If not what's going to be done with the original engine/components ect?

Ours go with the car, most likely at some point for sale.

All of the parts we remove/replace are the property of the owners of the cars. Thus far most 427 conversions have chosen to sell the LS3 long block assemblies. We do have one LS3 still available.

We continuously seek to test the suspension components to see how they work on the track. We would have been at Union Grove this weekend if not for the rain.

The axle shafts we utilize will not only help handle the power but they will help get the power to the ground.

"The Level 5 axles for the new Camaro SS are designed to handle up to 1000HP. Using chromoly center bars, 108mm Porsche-style CV's and bolt-on chromoly inner and outer stubs, these are a direct bolt-on that fit the stock hubs and come complete with all the necessary hardware. Not only will these axles handle the horsepower, we have used different diameter chromoly axle bars on each side which will eliminate wheelhop. Wheelhop at launch which can be extremely damaging to the drivetrain and makes getting traction very difficult. By allowing the axle bars to torsionally twist at different rates the result is traction, not wheelhop."

Will this Yenko package be available for future convertibles? If so, will there be any horsepower restrictions?

Will you accept cars for clunkers trade ins?
