Woodfin's 4th gen Camaro no-box package

[Dragsinger]

I will begin with some background and the basic setup.

Some of you may have followed my Super 10 , super stocker buildup. That project completed and we ran three NHRA Lucas races this season. At the third race the engine broke an intake valve and suffered considerable damage.

Such things happen, I have licked my wounds and began the repair process. The Super 10 is race ready except for engine repair and that is under way. For the 2016 season we have four Lucas races scheduled in super stock.

Because the super stocker is a high RPM, high maintenance package it is not the best choice for local bracket racing.

Team Woodfin has a strong bracket racing background, and because we sold both our bracket race packages, it is time to build another bracket racer.

My favorite bracket package from a few seasons ago was a 1990 Firebird. That car was dead-on consistent, always went rounds and won several finals.

At first I planned to do another 3rd generation combination and was looking for a good core car. Then after more consideration I decided to move up to the 4th generation platform.

The basic plan outline is;

*Everything will be built in house with only a few exceptions
*408 SBC with carb on race gas for initial outings. I have experience with Methanol and like it as a bracket fuel so changing to it may happen later.
*Powerglide w/trans brake
*shop built back half
*32 x 14 tire
*lot's of weight removal, everything unnecessary removed yet retain a neat appearance.
*I expect it to weight about 2900 pounds with driver
*It will run 6.0's 1/8 mile

So as we begin stay tuned and let me hear your thoughts.

Here is the "core" car, 1995 Camaro for $700.00
