<p><strong>What’s your real name? (What’s your online screen name?) </strong><br />
Arthur Morrow (morrowSS  or  SSmorrow)</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://gm.gearboxmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Arthurrear_400.jpg"><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-240" title="&quot;CMEL8R&quot; " src="http://gm.gearboxmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Arthurrear_400.jpg" alt="" width="400" height="400" /></a>Where do you live? </strong><br />
Granger, Indiana</p>
<p><strong>What GM(s) do you drive? </strong><br />
2001 SS Camaro and restoring a 1971 Z28.</p>
<p><strong>How long have you had your GM(s)? </strong><br />
The SS I bought new in 2001 and the 1971 I’ve had since 1986.</p>
<p><strong>What got you into GM(s)?</strong><br />
I&#8217;ve always liked Camaros and bought my 71 Camaro in high school.</p>
<p><strong>Have a favorite story to tell about your Camaro?</strong><br />
Well, one day I was heating up the tires and testing my launches on some new drag tires when I saw this sport bike coming toward me, then revving up a wheelie. At the time I was busy testing and didn&#8217;t pay much attention. Then later that night I was hanging out with some friends when a group of bikes rolled up and parked to check out my car. After they looked it up and down I heard a guy say, “Yep, that&#8217;s the one.”  I asked if there was something I did or how they knew me and the guy said “I was the one that pulled a wheelie at you to taunt you, but to my surprise you pulled the front end off the ground right back at me.” We all had a good laugh and I felt pretty good showing up his taunt without even knowing it.</p>
<p><a href="http://gm.gearboxmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Arthur01camarofront_750.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-243" title="Arthur's 2001 SS Camaro" src="http://gm.gearboxmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Arthur01camarofront_750.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="300" /></a></p>
<p><strong>What’s next for your Camaro? Why?</strong><br />
Definitely a built block. I plan on spraying a much bigger shot and need the block to stay together. I’m also still toying with the idea of turbo charging it. Right now I&#8217;m pushing the lower end of the block to the limits.</p>
<p><strong>Who has done most of the modifications on your Camaro? </strong><br />
My buddy Dan Baber and I have done most of the work.</p>
<p><a href="http://gm.gearboxmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Arthur01camarotrackdrivers_750.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-246" title="10.9 @122 on a stock bottom end and the baby seat in the back." src="http://gm.gearboxmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Arthur01camarotrackdrivers_750.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="300" /></a></p>
<p><strong>What was your favorite modification?  Why? </strong><br />
The cam. It actually put down a lot of horsepower and has an old school lopey sound; with the six speed, it is still very drivable.</p>
<p><strong>Is there a particular shop you’d like to recommend? </strong><br />
Not really, I haven&#8217;t had any good experiences with shops doing the work.</p>
<p><a href="http://gm.gearboxmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Arthur01camaroengine_750.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-248" title="2001 SS Camaro " src="http://gm.gearboxmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/Arthur01camaroengine_750.jpg" alt="" width="750" height="300" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Do you spend time on any GM sites? </strong><br />
<a title="LS1TECH.com" href="http://ls1tech.com" target="_blank">LS1TECH.com</a> &amp; <a title="CamaroZ28.com" href="http://camaroz28.com" target="_blank">CamaroZ28.com</a></p>
<p><strong>How much horsepower are you putting down? </strong><br />
When it was tuned for a 100 shot on Exotic Performance&#8217;s mustang dyno, it put down 608 lbs of torque and 533 rwhp. I took it to the strip with a 100 shot and managed a 10.9 @122 &#8211; all on a stock bottom end and the baby seat in the back. Now I’m running a 150 shot.</p>
