Strike A Pose: The 1969 Chevrolet Camaro ZR9 Steals The Spotlight

Posted on by V8 Staff

1969 Chevrolet Camaro ZR9 built by V8 Speed and Resto Shop

A rare moment when the 1969 Chevrolet Camaro “ZR9” is standing still and posing for a glamour shot! This pro-touring Camaro was a big project, with an all-new body and a MAST Motorsports 840 HP RHS 427 topped with an LS9 supercharger. It features a full custom leather and carbon fiber interior, Detroit Speed suspension, Forgeline wheels, Magnaflow Exhaust, Baer Brakes, a Tremec T56 Magnum 6-speed, and a lot more… but the Jetstream Blue color is one of the highlights. We were honored to build the car at the V8 Speed and Resto Shop, and the owner has had it over 167 MPH on an open road outside of the USA!

1979 Pontiac Trans Am Supercharged LS3 and Roadster Shop Chassis Upgrades at V8 Speed and Resto Shop

1979 Pontiac Trans Am LS3 and Supercharger Upgrades at V8 Speed and Resto Shop

This clean 1979 Pontiac Trans Am came to the V8 Speed and Resto Shop in need of some major performance upgrades. The car was born with an anemic Oldsmobile 403 V8 engine coupled to a 3 speed automatic transmission. We did an initial dyno run to find it only made 168 horsepower at the rear wheels, which might have been okay for 1979, but definitely not cool for today. The answer to this problem lies in the form of a Edelbrock supercharged Chevrolet performance LS3 V8 backed by a 6-speed T56 Magnum transmission.

The Trans Am is going to receive a new Roadster Shop chassis for better stiffness and handling. The E Force supercharger relies on an upgraded camshaft from Comp Cams, and is capable of making over 800 horsepower running on E85 fuel. We will be sharing complete build and final dyno videos of this car once the transformation is complete.
