1969 Chevrolet Camaro Lou’s Change LSA Supercharged Pro-Touring Camaro Build Photo and Video Gallery at V8 Speed and Resto Shop

We build lots of Camaros in the V8 Speed and Resto Shop, and each is different and unique.

This is an interesting car for many reasons, beyond the 630+ HP GM Performance Parts Supercharged LSA engine. The car features the best of everything… Detroit Speed suspension, Baer brakes, Forgeline wheels, Toyo tires, Hydratech brake booster, MagnaFlow exhaust, and much more. But the integration of the modern componentry goes hand in hand with the integration of the modern styling elements.

A Familiar Look With Modern Design and Performance

The goal for this car was to combine modern Camaro styling and performance with the classic look of the ‘69. Dan Steinhauser created the rendering, complete with a modern ZL-1 style hood with carbon fiber insert and a 3D printed grille.

We performed all the metalwork in-house, including fabrication of the custom hood, and installation of all new floors, quarter panels, tail panel, fenders, and more.

Lou’s Change rides on a complete Detroit Speed suspension front and rear. Deep tubs were installed to accommodate the Toyo R888 tires wrapped around Forgeline wheels.

The engine is a modified supercharged GM LSA 6.2L V8 making approximately 630 HP, backed by a 6-speed manual transmission. The car was sprayed in Mars Red, with a black ZL1 stripe.

It was a feature car at the SEMA show, the Muscle Car and Corvette Nationals, included in the Goodguys Top 100 1969 Camaros at the Camaro 50th Anniversary display, and in Hemmings Muscle Machines Magazine.
