We wanted to know if we non-automotive, non-professionals had the skill to build a competitive stocker, and choosing a one-off combo wouldn't prove it definitively. If the one-off didn't run well, was it our fault, or because the combo is poor? Conversely, if it flew, was it because we are such geniuses, or is the factor too soft?

It didn't hurt that we already owned a rolling Camaro body.

So what's the verdict?
