The factory-issue Z28 five-spokes are timeless and were outfitted with Goodyear GT rubber, measuring 225/60R15 at the bow and 255/60R15 at the stern. Stopping power comes via standard-issue front disc/rear drum arrangements. The SSBC calipers and Master Power rotors were added up front for improved stopping.
Handling chores under the Camaro are assigned to a set of tubular front control arms, Edelbrock shocks, a special 14:1 steering gear, and a 111/44-inch front bar. For better bite under acceleration, a set of Competition Engineering traction bars has been added.
Aesthetically, Tony's Auto Restoration in Corona, California, fogged six coats of Hugger Orange and topped it off with two bright white stripes over the mirror-straight body. They even custom-fabricated the hood for added clearance, giving the supercharger ample room.
Tony's Auto Restoration assembled a custom ABS composite instrument cluster that hosts a complete set of Auto Meter gauges monitoring engine temperature, fuel level, voltage, oil pressure, vehicle speed, and engine rpm. The Summit high-back buckets are wrapped in black leather and provide improved seating over the factory pieces. The steering wheel is a Grant item custom-fitted with a Camaro horn button.
Larry wanted a truckload of power on tap, so he enlisted the help of Jerry Stettler of Ace Machine in Riverside, California, to assemble a potent 360ci small-block. Inside is a standard 350-stroke (3.48-inch) with a 4.060-inch bore.
Up top, the mighty bullet incorporates a pair of AFR 210cc cylinder heads, including a Comp Cams 'stick sporting 0.510/0.520 inch lift, 230/236 degrees duration measured at 0.050, an Edelbrock Performer intake manifold, a Speed Demon 750-cfm carburetor, and 9:1 SRP slugs.
For added power the engine is force-fed huge amounts of atmosphere through a Vortech centrifugal supercharger unit. Shifting errands are assigned to a Tremec TKO-600 five-speed close-ratio with ratios spaced at 2.87-, 1.89-, 1.28-, 1.00-, and 0.64:1.
The original 8.5-inch 10-bolt secures a cog yielding a 3.73:1 quotient assembled by Jim Cook Performance of Ontario, California. Scott Brown from Van Gordon and Brown Performance in Claremont, California, installed a special cold air-intake box, a Griffin radiator, an Edelbrock high-volume water pump, an MSD 160-amp alternator, a Tilton high-torque starter, and dual Spal cooling fans.
