Dale Jarrett (don't run into many of them fans)....nicely kept car though...and he should keep the engine and go C/H keep it as original as possible and spice up what you got, especially if you want it as a daily driver

He’s gonna love working on this car

I'd do headers first 😄

I like the direction you're going. Street car/ daily. I like the blower idea, 5-10psi good for ya. Eventually it'll be another giveaway 😊

Sweet build love the idea of having a street/daily driver... I am sure 450- 550 ponies will suit your desire just fine. In my opinion that is the perfect Power for a daily. Reliable cruiser one you can have fun with that can take the abuse of smoking some tires. My third gen cost me every few months a new rear seat. These things are torque monsters perfect for smoking rubber.....

The Kenne Bell screw blows are hard to beat they are my 1 choice out of any of the blowers and put the biggest one you can John!

Had a 4th gen as my first car, always a special place for em. All the F-body guys know if you ever do wanna go budget on tubular suspension and chassis, Spohn is where it's at if you don't wanna pay UMI or BMR prices, but personally I like those two. There are other brands but they're kinda here, there and everywhere or won't have the full selection the other 3 have.

I’m the same about my 71 Camaro. Fresh 383 stroker small block, carb, nitrous plate, Centerline wheels. It’s all about having fun

This is a great idea. I have a stock F body that I want turn into a budget friendly street car. My goal is manual, and maybe 600-800hp.

I say go with the 403 and lamb cam like you’re saying and nitrous and the foundation will be there later for boost and keep the nitrous too😁

Definitely lower it, Cam/FBO. I definitely recommend doing the mid mount tq arm for when you lower it can get the pinion angle right and some nice clean chrome staggered zr1 wheels would really make it pop and tires are still cheap.

Intake, cam and headers are always a good place to start on a budget. Find an LSA complete but don't have Logan pick it up. 😂

Boost District LSA or a Magnuson or Whipple blower, whatever will fit under the hood best. Then get rid of the dual exhaust and do the 4” single exit. Lowered on a set of Fikse Profil 5 wheels to give it that clean signature look that works so well on F-body Camaros. Then maybe wrap it a different color!

Blower with the tkm big stick! That thing sounded sick in the caprice,

All the go fast motor stuff sounds great! DO THE KENNY BELL to be different from everyone else with an LS car…. But please, build it to handle and take turns. Let’s see if the qa1 mod shocks can give a good daily ride, adjust them for a few passes at the drag strip, but most importantly make it handle great for some road racing track days!!! Full BMR treatment, starting with their double diamond subframe connectors and the short, tunnel mount torque arm!!!

Preach!! Put in work. If you want something earn it.

I like where you’re going with this. I love your plans of the 403 with the supercharger. Throw an twin disc clutch in it with an upgraded 6 speed and 9”. Lower it like you said, but keep or improve the ride quality. Restore or reupholster your interior, put a nice stereo in and just enjoy the car.

Fbodys is pure american racing performance. Glad to be an owner of one. Ive had two in my life so far both with the ls1. Hopefully ill be getting a firebird next to add to my collection

Cam , pro charger - nothing sounds like a pro charger-headers long tubes new oil pump new fuel system should be a rocket. And the best give away you have had so far!!!

Fab 9 because that 10 bolt is finna explode with that 402 in there

Everybody loves a budget build 🤘🏼

Agree with the pd blower. I’d do that and a cam on the 5.7

Do a torquestorm, it's different and budget!

Seems like you are on the right track with the Camaro. Only thing you missed that i would do is ground affects all the way around.

I can dig it. I’ll follow along for sure.

LQ engine with a 4" stroker kit ,with LS3 heads and LSA blower. Dual Speed Engineering long tube headers and exhaust, camshaft and springs, aftermarket 12 bolt rear end. Umi or bmr suspension. Strano fays 2 watts link and lowering springs or Vikings coil overs front and rear. 🤔

Huron Speed A/C kit with a piston and rod 6.0, Jose big t4, s491 frame...or like you said, a healthy 12.5:1 e85 motor with good heads, etc. Make ~600ish whp on motor, maybe a lil plate 150 shot or something..? It'll move, I Daily drove my 02 Camaro with a 11.7:1 403, TH350 and 8" converter for well over 3yrs., plus the track time and it was still pretty fresh with 15k on it. E85 would definitely help!

Cam Good header’s. Gears tune wheels tires

The idea of making it a GM version of the 03 04 cobra sounds awesome. Kenne bell without a doubt for the same reason you stated.

I think you already got the vision that works for me

I've got Kooks long tubes and an SLP loudmouth with cat delete and it sounds awesome to me it's loud but not obnoxiously so. I put a tick street heat stage 2 cam in it and it has the 243 heads and ls6 intake and it runs pretty good. Suspension wise it has just about everything from bmr, but the mod that made the most difference was weld in subframe connectors. The t-top cars have a lot of chassis flex in them but after the connectors and a strut tower brace it stiffened the chassis up considerably and the difference is like night and day, I can't reccomend those enough. I'm sure your build is going to come out nice and I can't wait to see it happen, good luck!

SLP Loudmouth with cat delete and LTH is VERY obnoxiously loud. There's a difference in sounding good and being loud. Too many people these days especially youngsters mistake loud for sounding good. And all they do is make their neighbors hate them and their cars.

Put your other bottom end,cam,springs, oil pump,headers,rear gears,lowering springs,window tint, and maybe a torque arm to adjust pinion angle. Be a fun daily . Maybe put a 150 shot on it. Pray the 6 speed holds lol

I love the fact that you're building my budget car. Just make sure that you really make it budget and not John Doc budget lol like you might need to get Phill back 😂 buti love the idea of a blower I would even look at procharger ..that's what I'm doing on my 99. But KB is hard to beat 😊 I'm super excited to see this and the Cow get up and rolling

Procharger. For sure. D1 style. Kenne bell would be cool but not at all budget friendly. But cool for sure. Set of PRC 2.5s an your lamb cam.

These shirts are definitely the best most comfortable shirts out there.

Blower for sure I like the vision

Well here is my input it needs a PSR turbo their pretty reasonable on their price and they work good my sons single cam Honda went from a max speeding rods turbo to a PSR and makes 550 to the wheels

ported& polished243heads ls6 manifold all your missing on your list imo

Springs Lca and relocation brackets Short Torque arm Viking shocks Speed Inc long tubes & true duals out the rear Heads, cam, intake Run 10s all day.

Dude is right, I just bought my first 4th gen Camaro LS1 and I had to grind everyday. Always working and saving almost every penny. I'm on disability and I went got me a part time job at family dollar just so I could get the funds together. It's worth it. Now I've got my dream car. It's not perfect but I got the car it runs great after I grinded some more and worked on it. Grind and save that's all you got to do

I think all your ideas sound good go for it

LS with a procharger and a 6speed sound pretty nice!!

What was the side gig you posted about a month ago in a video? Something to do with storm cleanup or something?

A blower would be sick turbos are awesome but ya can’t bet the wine of a blower

Mine is a 94 with hooker exhaust. Nice daily , she looks real nice ! Have some motor work from the previous owner. Good price on the motor, gold to someone.

Hey, I noticed the NC tag. Where in NC are you located? I’m about 30 min north west of Mooresville. Love the videos, new subscriber.

Cam heads exhaust and yes lowered

What I would do is a heads, cam set up with an LSA. Nice simple 500-550 hp fun car.

Wish u guys would build my f body.. love the channel

Snakebite! The single car video i’ve watch the most since I was a kid. Kenne Bell blower on a stick LS1 with a thumpy cam even if its 500-600hp car it would be fun as hell on the street until that 10 bolt pukes its guts. Just don’t put a sticky tire on it.

From what I can here from your words. keep it simple! You, are looking to amp it up in a few different ways. Do the John mild build, keeping the NASTY out, so you don't have to wrench on it all the time, rather, jump into it anytime for a spiced up dependable ride. You already know what is going to happen if you go bonkers on it. rock on.

Blower, all day!

Heard this before. Gonna be billet block stage 17 black sheep in no time

Kenne Bell sounds awesome!

You should make it bump 😂...throw a cpl of sundowns with some focals in it. And bang some Sir Mix Alot or N2Deep.😅😊 Or super old school with some MTX or Kickers and some infinitys and play the whole AcDc back in black album on your Alpine. As for mods, bro build a nitrous engine with a cheater tank. Spray it !

I bought my 98 trans am at 125k miles. Drove it HARD for another 115k miles before a piston ring went bad. Then slapped another ls1 into it. And sold it. Like a bonehead.

Huron Speed under the car twin turbo kit no moving a bunch of things or a procharger.

This will awesome

D1x proCharger is the way to go , u won’t fit a kenne bell under the cowl , Can do a LSA swap with some trimming

How do you figure lower about 3" John

You should do one of Cleetus's races, like freedom 500, or danger Ranger type of race....

Rear mount turbo setup?

Like to see a Procharger build with this daily!

A real locker

My current side gig is pressure washing lol

408 LS3 based motor with a TVS2300 supercharger. The cam should have at least 235 degrees of duration at .050.

bro my ls1 is 95k miles. my brother blew it up at 93k... and bro i rebuilt shortblock put new stock oil pump on but im only gettin like 55 psi wot at like 5.5-6k rpm.... any ideas :/ funny part is its better than before

Had my 99z28 12 years built 6.o she's the sht have 2 zs stripped in shed for back up parts lol Florida life straight pipe cam loud Af😂

I wanna know what the lamb cam would be like with a blower like a whipple or similar or tkm can make you a cam for a roots blower and if it works out we can all buy it!

Kenny bell all the way. That whine sound a so good.

403 bottom end and spray it.. kind of like the trailblazer give away

I remember watching the cobras with Kenne Bells lol

Yeah, what you said but add a little 150 shot of juice in it.

I would do heads cam and intake

403 F1 X pro charger for the win

I didnt hear any bad ideas.... make it yours man.

I say a small supercharger.. like a vortec or something not crazy big procharged or anything

1200 and does it go in the 5's?

Put a wrap on it and maybe a catch can something easy

A terminator x ecu running the engine with a hcr harness running the engine, with the stock ecu running everything else would be a super worthwhile mod on that thing! The ecu in those things and deal with hp tuners sucks

big cube and spray

Thanks for asking but I think you got this all figured out

Billet specielties or Welds and Lsa would be cool

Ok so we get to say what to do, 😂😂😂 pull the ls1 ,drop in a LSX454 after cam swapping that,and porting the heads, build the trans, drop in a 12 bolt, o.

ProCharger like my F-Body and exhaust

Pro charger

I say mod it like all us normies would. Start with bolt ons and see how fast you can go, then cam only, then heads/cam then nitrous. Then go bigger motor, nitrous and then blower… try and set records/beat personal times throughout. Creates good/relatable content and storyline and also gives you something to strive for as you go
