\"1969<\/a><\/p>\n

Brett Schmeski and his company Mountain Home Street Rods<\/a> (MHSR) built this 1969 Camaro RS\/SS called “Mercury Rising” and won 2021 Goodguys Street Machine of the Year. The classic muscle car is powered by a 7.0 L SB4 V8 built by Mercury Racing<\/a>. The LS7-based motor features custom DOHC heads and produces 750 hp (551 kW) and 570 lb-ft (772 Nm) of torque. A T56 Magnum six-speed manual transmission sends that power through a carbon fiber driveshaft to a 9-inch rear end with a 4.11 ratio. The Camaro rides on Detroit Speed’s front subframe and Quadralink rear suspension. Braking is handled by Wilwood Aero six-piston front brakes and four-piston rear brakes. A set of Forgeline AL305 wheels<\/a> (18×10, 19×12) wear Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires (275\/35, 345\/30). Read more details on the Camaro at Hot Rod<\/a> or at Fuel Curve<\/a>. <\/p>\n
