What did they do???
Hi, Jim. In this video, Cam Bentley does some baseline testing of a stock ’68 Chevrolet Camaro. This is an important first step, before making dramatic suspension and tire improvements, to determine their effectiveness. Check out the other parts of this series (www.classiccarrestorationclub.com/videos/chassis-work/page/2/< http://www.classiccarrestorationclub.com/videos/chassis-work/page/2/>) as Cam and the folks at Hotchkis Performance add some modern day drivability into this sweet ride.
I saw the first video, then below the Classic Car customer service provides details for the upgrades. But that appears to be part 3. So part 2 where Hotchkis actually does the upgrades is missing.

I like this video serious but it would be much easier if the parts were clearly labeled in sequence. As I look at the links you have provided it’s not clear the order in which they are supposed to be watched.
