looks good. Mind if I ask how much the soda blasting is going to cost? i might have to look into that in the near future. ---

> [@jimmyfloyd](#): > > looks good. Mind if I ask how much the soda blasting is going to cost? i might have to look into that in the near future. I don’t want to quote prices for him, but give Jessie a call at 716-691-7013. As for the engine, I’m keeping it secret for now, but a few close guesses. If any of you know Lenny Plewniak, he’s building the motor again for me. He changed my mind a few times, but way back when I said I wanted a Camaro done this way, and this time I am doing it that way. 🙂 The car will still look like a 69 Z/28. It’s originally a 6 cylinder Camaro, so I don’t care for originality. It will have old school looks with a few modern updates. ---

> [@TrueBlue](#): > > look, but not run like - so, no DZ motor? ugh, you’re killing me. 😃 The car isn’t a real Z/28. It’s a 6 cylinder 3 speed car. The motor was a nicely built crate motor done up like a 302 with some 70 LT1 2.02 fuelie heads. That motor is going back to Lenny and already found a car to get dropped into. ``` The car is going to look like a Z/28, but will proudly represent a sleeper. it will run better than a DZ :) I wanted to go with a COPO or Yenko look (and components), but I like the Z/28 look too much to do so. ``` It’s going to have a similar stance and look to this: [http://www.wnycarclubs.com/misctemp/joecamaro.jpg](http://www.wnycarclubs.com/misctemp/joecamaro.jpg) ---

The 302 was just picked up by Lenny. And he told me the new motor is being built as we speak 🙂 ---
