The '68 Camaro moved under it's own power today after Nick nearly finished the MagnaFlow tail pipes - the ends still need to be trimmed - and we drove the car into the sanding room to install the sheet metal and get it ready for final color and clear. The Comp Cams Thumpr Cam sounds killer, and the MagnaFlow pipes and mufflers roar. It's not going to be a car you can sneak around in!

In this video series, we're upgrading a 1969 Camaro SS 396 for better performance using an Edelbrock
Top End Kit consisting of E-Street Heads, a RPM intake manifold, a mild
street camshaft, and the required hardware and gaskets to put it all
together. We're adding a Holley Street Avenger Aluminum 670 carburetor for fuel, and an MSD Digital E-Curve distributor for spark. The Camaro will breathe better with a dual MagnaFlow stainless exhaust system, and it will run smoothly on Royal Purple Break-In Oil and Max Gear transmission oil. We're also adding a Centerforce clutch for more grab. Under the car, we're detailing the subframe and suspension with Eastwood Underhood Black paint, and installing Global West Del-A-Lum bushings up front. A Baer
Track disc brake kit is going on for better stopping power, and a
Chassis Engineering front sway bar will help this car corer better.

In this update, Nick is working on the custom MagnaFlow 2.5" stainless steel exhaust system for our '68 Camaro. The system needed some modifications to clear the Detroit Speed Quadralink rear, but it's all coming together nicely. And Kelle opened the shop to 2 of every animal on the planet.

http://www.v8tvshow.com - We had reason to celebrate today in the V8TV shop, as the FAST EZ-EFI fueled 490 cube big block Chevy V8 roared to life. We pulled out the picture of NASA Flight Director Gene Kranz for good luck, and it worked!

Last update, we cut Nick off before his final word of wisdom… this time, he gets another chance. We also take a closer look at the Be Cool radiator and cooling module charged with keeping our 490 cube big-block happy in the '68 Camaro.

Although this Camaro is in the home stretch, it's been under construction for just over a year. Today the V8TV crew installed the radiator core support, the Shiftworks 4L80E shifter retrofit kit, and about 100 feet of wiring.

We have had sort of an identity crisis with our '68 Camaro. We initially named it "Commotion," but later learned that the name was already used on a '69 Camaro by Classic Industries. In this update, we learn more about custom car names and the new name given to our '68!
