WTF?!? Ford Camaro!

I was watching Pinks All Out a while ago and saw a Ford powered Camaro that ran at Firebird Race way in Phoenix, Az. Also on my first trip to the local strip (Tucson, Az) I saw the exact same car. Tonight they were filming an episode for Pinks All Out here at SIR (again in Tucson, Az). The Ford Camaro made it to the Final 4 if I'm not mistaken (I could be wrong). Who is this guy, how/why did he put a Ford motor in a Camaro, and what motor is he running? I wanted to ask him in person but I chickened out even though he was RIGHT THERE! I love Fords, and I love Camaros which are usualy two things that just don't go together, but HE did it!!! I just want some info, either from someone who knows whats going on with that car or from the owner himself.

Re: WTF?!? Ford Camaro!

I love it!!! Shame I didn't know about this car when it was first built. A recently departed friend of mine was so pro Chevy that this might just have killed him earlier! He was so upset that I was planning on putting a 351M/C4 in a '46 Chevy pickup that he wouldn't talk to me for three weeks!

Later!

A co-worker is talking about putting a Ford plant in a Corvette. He wants to do it to tick off all the numbers matching Corvette fanatics around here...

Re: WTF?!? Ford Camaro!

Theres a 89 Stang here too
running an LS1 with 6 speed
first time out, end of year so it was last days track was open,he did an 11:something @ 127mph pass!!!
He tells me the car is also 110 pounds lighter,
Does that make sense?
He wanted to go mod cobra motor, but, the cost was more than he;s got into the whole car now!
I know he's working on a site, see if i can source
