Mine has a 350 and T-Tops. The VIN numbers all match up and it says 5.7 on the label under the hood. So either someone was really smooth and switched all the labels or I have a factory freak huh?

Also, could I get a recommendation on some headers/exhausts with some approx. pricing and where to buy? Thanks.

 

Joe: I have an 88 and owned it since 89, I used to believe the same thing in regard to the manual tranny`s as far as the header issue you can put em on if you want? thats your choice! the edelbrocks are 1 5/8 primaries and are around $340 painted, the slp are around $450 and 1 3/4 primaries and are a 409 stainless material(you will need to by the y pipe and do some welding. I have a nice pair of headmans i will sell for $75.00, they are 1 3/4 primaries with 3in collectors(your y pipe will need some welding)! I`am curious as to what manafolds the other members of this thread would recomend?

 

new plugs, wires, ETC
intake
hooker long tube headers with a custom dual exhaust set up
shift kit
converter

i would prob do the above in that order. the biggest gains hp wise would prob be from the exhaust combo. biggest 1/4 mile time gain will be from the converter, as stated before. intake and exhaust would be the first thing cuz it really starts to open up the motor, allowing it to breathe a lot easier, just like the newer motors (lt1, ls1, ls6, ls2). after that, go to www.camaroz28.com
and look up 3rd gen camaro on Google >> http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=camaro+3rd+gen

 

Carl! I was talking about transmisions (turbo 350). sorry my mistake!:your comment raises a flag for me! I have gotten used to the term 5/7 liter when refering to engines, from now on I will be more specific( I will re type that comment!

 

I would have to see to believe it. Only one made it out and it belongs to a high up GM executive. You could get a 90 that way, but not a 91 or 92. Do you have the highrise spoiler and the inverted hood scoops (bubbles)?

 

Whoops Then disreguard my commenst

 

Yeah it does. I'll post pics of the car along with shots of the RPO label, VIN plate, and under hood label if you want. The car was built in May of 1990 but is classified as a 91, if that makes any difference.

 

If you would? Im not trying to be an ass or anything. I use to have 2 third gens (25 anniv. RS and a 91Z) and I sold them both to get my current car. I always wanted the 350 with T tops and did MANY hours researching it and found that none made it out from the factory. Are you sure its not a redone 90? The only diffs were the hood and spoiler.... same yellow gauges, same aero GFX, same wheels.....

Interesting....

 

I own a 92. Thanks for playing...

 

They were too big to just post, but heres the data. It says nothing about being T-Tops, but it does say that its a special dealer order and I've heard of convertibles with 350s that don't have any RPO/VIN codes for the convertible so maybe this is the same.
