Canadian Camaro
Jakub Stroinski of Ontario, Canada, is the owner of this beautiful 1991 Camaro. On the outside, Jakub has repainted the car dark blue; shaved the front bumper; and installed a set of C6 Corvette wheels, covering a pair of C5 Corvette brakes. Not stopping there (no pun intended), Jakub powers his Camaro with a cammed LS1 (228/232 duration, 0.595/0.605-inch lift, 112+1 LSA) and has a stout driveline to back it all up. Using an LS2 flywheel and LS7 clutch, power is transferred to a custom Ford (yes, Ford) 8.8-inch rearend. Housed inside is a 4.10 gear, Detroit TrueTrac differential, and Moser axles. The stance is courtesy of Canuck Motorsports 2-inch lowering springs. As a package, this may be one of the nicest Canadian third-gens we have ever seen.

Excessive SS
While the Fikse FM5 wheels on Clayton Shadid's Camaro make it look like a show-winning garage queen, the 454-inch LSX under the hood tells the real story. Inside that monster is a Callies crank, responsible for turning the Wiseco pistons and Callies forged rods. A 254/256 duration, 0.595/0.595-inch lift, 112+2 LSA camshaft tells the valves inside the TEA-ported 217 heads what to do. Incoming air passes through a ported FAST 90/90 combo and out a set of Kooks 1 7/8 long-tube headers paired to an SLP dual-dual exhaust. Power is sent through a built T56 and Midwest Chassis-fabricated 9-inch rearend, which ensures that everything stays together when Clayton rows up the gears. With 550 hp on tap, this has got to be one of the meanest cars roaming the streets of Edmond, Oklahoma.
