Define which Stielow Camaro you want to talk about first. The guy has built fifteen of them.


FWIW, I seem to recall a recent comparions of Stielow's Red Devil (maybe his most famous one) to a modern ZL1. Net result was you could buy 2.5 new ZL1s and have some change left over for a daily driver compared to what it took to build the Red Devil Camaro.




I think this is a good point - how many has Mark built (think of all the development time he has under his belt - I'm sure he can sort an first gen F body pretty quick) vs. what just about anyone else has done, plus isn't he a GM engineer with some good connections too? I think we (the Mopar crowd) are about 10 years behind on this kind of stuff IMO The other thing you don't see mentioned very often is torsional rigidity. Don't get me wrong, I love old mopars, but I don't expect my old Plymouth to ever handle as well as a new challenger or viper and I'm ok with that.
