      Nice! It's nice to see a high res picture of that Hotchkis STB on the V6. Looks nice and solid. And good job finding a better breather for the clearance you needed.

        Thanks, hopefully get my down pipe routed to the exhaust and my new tires installed by the end of the month. Just working on tuning it. Then move the battery to the rear, install air filter in the fender well and coolant res. So still plenty to do.

          ZZP sells a nice breather, I had one but ended up selling it because the strut brace was in the way.

            Yeah Edgar I have ZZPs breather, wouldn’t fit, the LS1 breather is cool because you can ditch the filter and run a 3/8th line out of it and then remount the filter and just use a straight barb fitting and mount it anywhere.l

                Also many other mods throughout the years, first mods when I got the Camaro in December 1995 with 18 miles was RK sport ground effects, RKs Dynomax muffler with dual tips and Eibachs 1.5” lowering springs. Then put my stereo in, PPI amps , 2 Kicker solo baric 12’s, and I think it was JL mids and highs. Didn’t start really moddings until 2002 , got RK sports Powerdyne supercharger, started suspension mods, then built the motor. Sold the Powerdyne after 4-5 years, then went with 150 wet shot of nitrous, did that for a couple of years. Camaro sat for about 4 years until I started modding again in 2015.

                          Took the Camaro out for a couple of runs, getting closer, getting part throttle dialed in before I go WOT tunIng. Looked at the boost gauge this time 6lbs at 3000 rpms. Will try and take it out tomorrow if I get the chance, knee was killing me.
