1968 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS Pro-Touring Marina Blue Masterpiece Originally purchased in 2011 as a restored classic, this 1968 Camaro RS/SS has been transformed into a Pro-Touring showpiece that blends vintage style with modern performance and comfort. Finished in stunning Marina Blue, it retains the iconic Rally Sport hideaway headlights and Super Sport badging, but now boasts a full array of top-notch upgrades. The entire build is enthusiast-designed with no expense spared from a fuel-injected stroker V8 to a high-end audio system making this Camaro a one-of-a-kind cruiser thats as aggressive as it is refined. Notably, the engine bay has been custom fabricated with smoothed sheetmetal and hidden wiring for a sleek, uncluttered look, showcasing the polished components and craftsmanship. Below is a detailed breakdown of its features: Engine & Drivetrain Under the hood lies a professionally built 383 cubic-inch stroker small-block V8 that delivers the rumbling idle and ferocious acceleration every muscle car fan craves. This powerhouse is packed with premium performance parts and modern technology for reliability and show-quality looks: Eagle Forged Rotating Assembly (383 Stroker) Balanced internals including a 3.75 stroke crankshaft and forged Mahle pistons give the engine 383ci of displacement for greater torque and horsepower. The stout bottom end is built for high performance on pump gas, ensuring robust power and durability on the street. Airflow Research 195cc Aluminum Heads CNC-ported AFR cylinder heads provide greatly improved airflow and combustion efficiency. These high-performance aluminum heads feature fully CNC-ported intake/exhaust runners and combustion chambers for maximum power up to ~6500 RPM. Their A356 aluminum construction and quality components are designed for engines up to 400 ci, making them a perfect match for the stroker.

This cam is optimized for street performance, offering a broad power band (approximately 1,6005,800 RPM) with excellent throttle response and enough vacuum to run power brakes and accessories. MSD Atomic EFI Fuel Injection Replacing the old carburetor is an MSD Atomic EFI TBI system for turnkey reliability and tuning. This self-learning fuel injection constantly monitors engine conditions to deliver the best possible drivability. The Atomic EFIs integrated ECU and built-in sensors greatly reduce wiring clutter and keep the engine bay clean. The result is quick starts, a smooth idle, and crisp throttle response every time you drive. No more cold-start issues or fiddling with a choke this modern EFI has you covered.
