If you saw this silver ‘vert roll up at the stoplight you might think to yourself, “self, why would someone bother modding a ‘vert?” and then you’d probably think “why is this ‘vette next to me quietly pounding the ground” and then as it pulls off you hear it sit on the converter and the turbos spool and you think to yourself “ZOMG MUZT HAZ CAR!”

For a car that is comparably quiet and looks completely freaking stock this is the baddest car i’ve ever seen and it STILL gets 27mpg on the highway… It’s got a twin turbo kit and built everything… Friggin’ thing makes 861 on pump gas… to me that is effin’ baaaaaddd.

And if any of you out there have a few dollars burning a hole in your pocket you can own this rocketship…Buy it on eBay!

If you’re in the market for a vette, or anything sporty for that matter, you seriously need to look at this thing… You’re missing out if you dont.

And just as a side story, while following the owner to take these photos he would gas it every now and then just long enough to spool the turbos and lay down about 10ft of rubber. This meant I had to go from cruising in 5th to winding out 2nd, powershifting 3rd and finally catching back up about 10 seconds later. Apparently, 17lbs in the SS/TC isn’t enough to keep up with the ‘vette! Now i know how StunnaBEN is gonna feel after he sees my tail lights when we bump off

The late 60’s Camaro rivals the iconic presence of any muscle car on the planet if you ask me. The body lines are some of the best ever created. Add a 388-stroker and you have yourself a red light terror machine, option tag of “get in my car girl” is available!

What can you say about a spotless 1968 Camaro on the street? The 1st thing I always say is that its good to see a piece of history on the street. But whats even better is to see the “resto-mods” which the industry labels these oldies when they have anything late model on the car. Wheels, or anything. I know them as Hot Rods, and the older they get, the more they mean to us all!

When I first found out Jake had this car, it was a goal of mine to shoot it. I never go around to it, and the car itself got better and better over time. When the Weld wheels were added, it was a for sure thing! Jake has had the car since 2007, but the mods have been flowing from day one. It had a stock 350 in the bay when he got it, but soon after was replaced with this Dyer Racing Engines built 388-Stroker that you will see in the mods list! This beast can get out of dodge!

I have already mentioned that here on Greasy Blocks we are nuts over drag racing! See, down here in the southern states we have a few things that make this very clear; a ton of drag strips, very loose emission standards, more domestics being used than anywhere else in the united states, home of NASCAR (meaning tons of machine and chassis work) and possibly some of the best weather for year-round driving in the states.

When it all comes down to it, I may just be obsessed with the year and make of what Jake’s car is, or it could be one more factor. Since the motor is a low compression motor, it can be driven anywhere! I mean, long distance, jagged and beat up roads, on the crappiest of pump gas out there. We all know those bum-ass filling stations here and there that get crap gas. Sometimes you need those, no matter what you are behind the wheel of.

I could blab you on and on with some feature, but Jake’s Camaro does more in pictures than I could do. Plus, that’s one of the goals of Greasy Blocks, not to just blab you on! With a car that passes the 8th mile traps in 7.4sec at over 94mph, there is no blab needed! More coming on this car in a few weeks.
