A lot of people out there will list the major parts they used to build their car, but I'd like to take it a bit further. In this section you will find every single part(big or small) I used to build the car, where I got it from, the part number, how much I paid, and my opinion on the fitment and quality of the part. It's my hope that this section proves to be a great resource for those of you using similar high-performance parts or building a First Generation Camaro.
