Re:Dodge -vs- Camaro.....

Camaro's are good for a lot of things. Like flower pots. Or beer holders. Or coat hangers. Actually, the 6 cylinders suck. The LS1's are nice. Ridden in one with a blower, that's just sick. We just put an SLP Loudmouth exhaust on my girlfriend's Z28, that sounded good.

Re:Dodge -vs- Camaro.....

I definitely enjoy my truck, and you can guess where I would have wanted to be if I were involved in that situation... But I have to tell you, my Camaro is slightly more fun than a beer holder ;D It has 50+rwhp over my CTD, but only weighs ~3200lbs...<br><br>Big Blue, those loudmouths sound good don't they? Just wait until she gets the urge for some longtubes... Talk about a growl &gt; &gt; ;D (And if you get stuck with the install job, just be patient and get some mechanix gloves!)<br><br>Wes

Re:Dodge -vs- Camaro.....

Decent articulation, but he should have used a sturdier ramp.

He should have gassed it I think with a little more throttle he would have cleared the camaro and been on his way. ;D <br><br>Dang speed bumps. &gt; [undecided]<br><br>DB

it was just a joke eh ;D.........

ex camaro owner here, sold my baby to get a 10 grand down payment for my truck (I never drove her much anymore), I still feel guilty about it ...







had a balanced and blueprinted 355 short bock with trw 10:1 flat tops, ported polished heads (2.02, 1.60 valves), edelbrock perf rpm intake, holley 750, hedman headers and a 284 degree cam dynamics cam.....

it loped like a son of a at 950 rpm, but made gobs of power . couldn't keep tires on it even with the 2.56 gears in the back (top end was amazing)

:'( i miss my baby

that's why I wanna bomb my truck, I got no car to have fun with anymore ...........I think diesel burnouts will be pretty cool though

Nice ride! Always liked the 69 with hideaways,someday when I get rid of my 67 i'll look around for a 69. As soon as I learn how to use my digital camera i'll post some pics of the fleet. ;D ;D

My dad is thinking bout getting those, long tubes, and X-pipe for his Vette. Now THAT would be loud. ;D I don't have to talk her into anything. She just needs to get the money. It's her parents she has to convince. They love the exhaust though.

Re:Dodge -vs- Camaro.....

That Dodge has some good articulation!<br><br>I dont know about the aproach angle, but I doubt there was any damage (body) to the Dodge.<br>It looks like the Dodge could just back up and be clear. May want to check the alignment and make sure the diff. cover didnt take a hit.<br><br>But all in all, the Dodge looks like it was set up well for off roading.<br>(Even if &quot;off road&quot; means on top of a Camaro!).<br><br>Rich<br>
