- 2 Nov 2017
The world-renowned Roadster Shop debuts its latest creation at the K&N Booth 22755 this week during the 2017 SEMA Show. The 1970 Camaro named “Split Second” was constructed to the usual high Roadster Shop standards of ingenuity and quality. The name “Split Second” is derived from the fact that it is a split bumper Camaro and it has a unique dual or split fuel injection system. In ordinary driving circumstances, the engine is feed from a fuel cell containing 91 octane pump fuel. As boost from the twin turbochargers increases the computer starts to feed 108 octane race gas from a second fuel cell into the 427 small block from Nelson Racing Engines. The result is a daily driver with around 900 horsepower that automatically segues into a 1600 horsepower beast with only the application of the throttle. The front clip and unibody floor of the Camaro and were discarded by and replaced by a Roadster Shop Fastrack chassis. Brembo provided the brakes, HRE the wheels, and Avant Garde the interior. When asked about K&N the Roadster Shop’s Phil Gerber had this to say: “We trust K&N, we know their filters are going to protect our motors. Plus they have a wide range of products that’ll fit anything we’re building.” Watch the video to check out the amazing Roadster Shop “Split Second” 1970 Camaro and its dual fuel injection system. |
