From gmfullsize.com... WOW!

Here is a friend of mines 1967 Camaro with a Duramax that is getting down to the last minute of leave for Drag Week Saturday. This fabbing started about 6 weeks ago and hoping to fire it up tonight. The twins are off a new cummins diesel that are electronic varible vains that we had a controller built to monitor turbo shaft speed and control the boost through this controller. The motor has stock crank and pistons, aftermarket rods and cam and the heads have been ported to the max. The sheetmetal intake was built by a friend of ours Greg Young. We expect around 1000 hp and about 1700 to 1800 ft lbs without nitrous. I will get more pics soon. Mike Woods' (owner of nx) duramax mustang and this camaro will be heading to up to Drag Week Saturday and will let yall know how everything goes. Both cars are going to be in Diesel Power Magazine.

not sure how i feel about that. Im sure its fast as hell but it probably lags quite a bit too.

Idea looks well executed though!

They are getting pretty good at eliminating the lag by using parallel turbos, since you gan go relatively small, and then using nitrous to light them on the line. Not sure what they are running on the camaro, but I believe the Banks guys are using GT37's on their pro street S-10.
 
There was a Chevelle powered by a duramax in PHR a month or two ago. It was a really slick install, the car was beautiful.

The back tires are a little skinny though :lol:
 
Wow! Nice execution. I like that they are different. That Chevelle looks sweet too.
 
Looks badass - looks like a 1968 as well :D

Come on guys, you act like first gen shells are hard to find, not like he started with a '67 Z28 or something like that :haha:
Let's not act like the Corvette guys :D
