Magazine Featured Chevelle 300 EFI LS1 V8 350 HP 4L60E 4 Speed Auto 3.91 Posi

Featured in the February, 2009 edition of Chevy High Performance Magazine, this sublime Chevelle is an intentionally low-key take on the fundamentals of every hard-edged muscle car: tough looks, sturdy components, reduced weight and tons of power! The car's body-off restoration, which wrapped in the Spring of 2007, began with a rust-free shell that was subjected to complete disassembly and a full chemical strip. Once that profile was clean and ready to work, the pros at Dulles, Virginia's Ultimate Performance Company whipped up smooth PPG 2-stage that reflects as Corvette Artic White pigment. And, roughly $93K later, this Chevy hit the road as a top-notch resto-mod that's clean, reliable and acutely focused. Take a look under the hood and you'll find 5.7 liters of stout LS1 small block that's good for 350 horsepower! That mill spins a proven 4L60E 4-speed that was sourced from a 1999 Camaro. That gearbox twists an Eaton Truetrac differential around Richmond 3.91 gears. That drivetrain pushes a Moser M9 housing on QA-1 shocks and 1-inch lowering springs, which float between a 1-inch sway bar, and fixed and adjustable Global West control arms. Opposite that clip, more QA-1 shocks and 1-inch lowering springs float between a second sway bar, Global West G-Plus control arms and a full suite of polyurethane bushings. Stops come quickly thanks to a familiar Delco Moraine booster, which jolts two Baer calipers, two PBR calipers and a 13-inch slotted rotors. Turns are sharp thanks to a Flaming River power steering box, which is aided by a collapsible shaft, Borgeson joints and a fifth-generation Corvette pump. And power pounds the pavement through Billet Specialties Roulettes, which spin attractive powder-coat accents inside 225/45ZR18 Michelin Pilot Sports and 255/45ZR18 Michelin Pilot Sports.
