    My Dads' Chevrolet Camaro has been in the family for more than a decade now. His Chevrolet Camaro is 55 years old, but the drivetrain is completely modern. 5 Years ago my brother and I LS1 swapped his Chevrolet Camaro along with an updated modern suspension. This Chevrolet Camaro sports vintage looks with all the modern go fast parts. The only thing this Chevrolet Camaro needs now is MORE POWER!
    Our friends at Boost District have that taken care of though. With a complete swap kit for an OEM LSA Supercharger. A quick and easy install allows us to bolt on loads of extra horsepower. The only question is, exactly how much more power can we make with my Dads' Chevrolet Camaro? The team up at Complete Street Performance helps us answer that question by strapping my Dads' Chevrolet Camaro to the dyno and finding out!

    I know most Camaro enthusiasts are into the 69 (nice!), which I love as well, but I have always had a love for the 68, I am so jealous of your Dad. And you as well for getting to work on it and drive it. I guess I will have to live vicariously through you! 😉

    LS swaps are my favorite automotive “Thing”. Having had two third generation F-bodies that were LS swapped, I have come to the realization that almost everything can be made better with a LS motor! (Even a Porsche). My latest project is a 1989 Trans-Am GTA with LS2. You guys should do more “old” stuff. A lot of us really do realize that car companies made cars BEFORE 2000.

    I absolutely love the way you two bonded the silent dad, and the eager son explaining his knowledge on the subject matter. They aren't here forever, though I wish I could do the same with mine but he doesn't care. Great vid and for Pops: "Drive that thing sir!"

    Wow! I just got into your channel and I'm definitely subscribing. The simplicity of the video is spectacular (no bullshit songs during the build, just the pure tool/parts sounds). Cleanest Camaro I've seen so far! Keep up with the videos!

    That is a very nice example of a '68. It really does need to be presented at some club shows for the public to appreciate it and what better way than to drive it to those shows. Pops, give it a good consideration, it doesn't matter how many miles you add to it because you can only appreciate such a nice ride but once. Btw, I'm glad you like the feel of the new clutch, the previous one was just something you had to get used to. 👍

    I think it's complete success. I hate the fact that your father doesn't show appreciation for what you have done. I have my father living with me and it's HELL. All he does is complain, complain, complain. But we must do our jobs and take care of the ones that somewhat took care of us growing up!

    Tell your dad that I'm so envious of his ride. I'm a 69-year-old guy that just sold my VW Beetle because I couldn't afford to keep it. I've owned a bunch of muscle cars in my life, but the only car that I really wanted was a Camaro. That's why I envious. Lovin' the old days !!!!

    That wobbling wheel was the first thing I noticed 😮 I was honestly thinking we’d see more dramatic boost so it was sort of anticlimactic and really didn’t seem to get a reaction from dad 🤔 BUT… It’s a nice Father’s Day gift to your dad though 👍🏻
