1987 Camaro Z28 454 LSX

[OldCavLT]

it's a 3rd Gen (of which I own 2 and race one.) Even if this car WASN'T completely rotted out and now cut up and turned into coke cans, it would STILL be a 3rd Gen. At least do this to a car that's worth something when you're done with it. Since you asked.

[OldCavLT]

More money than sense.

[JakeCCal]

@OldCavLT Silly comment without specifying why you think he lacks sense... It's a badass car, and very badass motor. I'm not seeing this lack of sense you speak of. Think maybe you're just wishing you had this car?

[Jhoodemcee]

[madguy1010]

how much hp that beast put out??

[l91camaroz28l]

@madguy1010 those engines dump 600hp at the flywheel so probly 520 or so at the wheels? thats if that motor is stock

[madguy1010]

@l91camaroz28l man lol thats a sick 454 bro very nice car

[bonerdust]

beautiful car



[Skidz1818]

i am a f body guy and i keep hearing about LSX what is it, i know what a Ls1-9 is but i have never heard of an LSX

[DonkRyder31]

I'm trying to find a LSX 454. Where did you get this set up?

[707bigdonkey]

nice zip ties

[Slipknotdraken]

Given a rough estimate, how much would a set up like that run you paint, engine and wheel wise?

[l91camaroz28l]

@Slipknotdraken id probly say about 20-25k or so engine alone is 14k wheels/tires are probly another 3k paint is probly around 3k and interior if it isnt mint will probly run another 2k or so then other odds and ends that you never figure into your build that end up costing you about another 1k lol

[Slipknotdraken]

@l91camaroz28l

Jesus...guess I'm getting that loan after all.

[187SKILLZ14]

[BassJackass]

@blackcaesar404

Parts are easy to find for a third gen.

Get your ass on over to HawksThirdgenparts

[MrLevers]

Hands down cleanest 3rd gen camaro ever

[MrLevers]

Hands down cleanest 3rd gen camaro ever

[mikecameli]

the spoiler on the back is it custm made or is it aftermkt

[CanisJon]

So clean and tidy :).

[Echo399]

Sickest z28 I have seen man. How do you like that LSX? I'm putting an LS2 in my 87 Z28 but might just have to go bigger after seeing this. Love the door handles btw. And whoever thought camaros were for mullet heads

[Enigma00017]

WOW this has got to be hands down the best looking 80's camaro I have ever seen.

The door's, the newer camaro trim inside and the head lights alone are sweet. You need to do a full out vid showing it all off! again wow just a work of art!

[88JohnnyB]

hey how did you do the door handles like you have them? that's really sweet. you pretty much have done what I wish I had the money to do to my 3rd gen (college student)

[TheRockstaraz]

work of art!

[sampoteste]

just f'n sick. Man!!

info, info, info. I am looking into a big block for both my 89 RS and my 95 Z28. It is nice to see this one sooooo nicely done!!

[WhiskyRnR]

Very nice! I like the modern touches like the C6 door niches.

Do you have a website with pics detailing all you've done to the car?

Again, awesome!

[eybitchproductions]

Wow man, this has to be the best looking 87 that I've seen, looks nice!

[nlsx]

Also, will eventually repaint the car the same color because of some imperfections which have become apparent over time. So, when I get it cleaned up again, will post another video, this time going down the road? Not looking to sell now, I still need to go through at least 3 sets of tires! ;)

[manuelagrasferrer]

@nlsx Love this mod!! best I ever saw, my car is an ls1 2001 and wow your camaro is so fuckin amazing ! dream car

[nlsx]

Thanks again for the kind words. WMSMITH88, since the time I shot this video, I reworked the rear bumper to include a surround for now large oval tips as well as aluminum panleing which is under the rear as well as the front of the car. In the front this panelling will serve to direct air into the engine for a ram air effect and also direct air to the radiator. The radiator also now has it's own shroud which is air tight allowing air to only go through the cooling fins.

[wmsmith88]

If you ever want to sell this car i dont care what the price is i will pay, cash. This car is awesome, the door handles that is cool as hell. and i notice that the interior is that of a newer camaro. the paint is beautiful. Man what a nice car this is my favorite body style. Please contact me if you want to sell it. I will give you what ever you put into it. my email is wmsmith88@Live.com

[jeffg3209]

Your car is..... Wow, better than the NRE Camaro which was the coolest third gen IMO for a long time.

What a bad ass car sir. More Video Please!!

[evhgl87]

link to the build? too much to comment on here as to how nicely it was done. google does not have that long of a chat post!

ive got a 1978 iron block 454 id like to rebuild into a 496 and put into a 1988 iroc. i love the dash, seats, wheels, and clean engine bay as well. all of the wiring is hidden - insane attention to detail. thanks for sharing!

[ericg83z]

COOL little door unlock thingy lol neat idea!

[matapollos15]

wow dude i want my 3rd gen to look just like that under the hood, i dont care about the outside lol, so how much $ did it take for that engine to be built?

[jeffg3209]

@matapollos15

The LSX 454 short block is around $6K. I can tell this guy did a no half ass build, every single bit of $10K (minimum) and I would be willing to bet around $15k.

[xDetroitMetalx]

Sick car man.

[nlsx]

Ok, i'll try and answer all your questions, if I missed anybody's please ask again and i'll respond. The intake is custom by Hogan Racing Manifolds and I believe they have this manifold also plumbed with nitrous lines, looks pretty mean that way! I sure hope to have another video up by the end of the year.....hopefully it will be worth the wait.

[1993hondaaccord]

@nlsx You must be gasing up like every 5 minutes. lol Nice car though

[KMurdock1974]

this is awesome....wish the clip didn't get cut so short...teaser.... that car was sick damn..

[DoggyB22]

That shit is clean man.... good job, You throw it on a dyno or run it at a track?

[scarface115]

fuck the song, i wanna hear the music that v8 produces!

[impreziv]

id love to know what kind of Intake manifold that is

[GiacomoKnox]

Whoa...let's hear it run, please!

[nlsx]

The wing is from Hawk's 3rd gen, though I am replacing that with a custom/functional rear wing. I'll post pics when it's finished.

The dash and center console are from a 4th gen SS 2002 Camaro and the seats are Recaro (model=Trend). Door panels are temporary and are from a 2000 Trans Am. Due to fitment issue (door panels are too bulky) i'll have to do some more fabbing on the door panels. Also, the center console will be custom when I get around to the interior.

Thanks guys!!!

[RaVaGeEXPLICIT]

dude that car is so nice. where did you get the extended wing?

[booch137]

Whoa whoa whoa... am I the only one who noticed the doors?! So you've got the proximity keys. I am fucking jealous of this machine.

[wsmikey]

next step twin turbos lol...

[bleedozz]

What kind of intake it that?!

[nlsx]

Thanks for the nice comments! You are correct, the color is midnight metallic blue. Hopefully by August I will have more videos to upload :) Right now, alot of work is going into this and you will see alot of mods, whoaaaaaaaaa!

[adrian2177]

@nlsx Hey i noticed the signature on the inside right fender well, who signed it?? Thats a saaweeeeett fuckin car man, cant wait to see how it runs!!!

[gloredo100]

@nlsx hey bro was the interior custom or straight from a 4th gen maro?

[randomradicalstuff]

@nlsx i have a 1983 z28, and trying to install a 454ci big nlock, did you have to do any modifications?

[weiandblower]

WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW­WWWWWW

Just WOWWWWWWW. Got a little more wowwwwwwwwwwwww for ya.

[Dachamp2001]

that z-28 is off the chain with that lsx im bout too drop the lsx in my 06 gto what shade of blue is that looks close to midnight blue

[gritpump]

That is fuckin RAW!!!

[jrolla38]

man that is nice very nice

[emmanuel33v]

wow!!!!!!!!!! this is a nice machine whats the retail on one of them engines?

[Ratmouth66]

@emmanuel33v Assuming its an LSX454 about $9000, give or take for accessories and necessities for installation, not a bad price for a crate motor pushing 620hp out of the box and still getting a good 25mpg at least on the highway haha

[brutuscavalier]

muy bonito tu camaro nada mas la che cancion esta muy fea saludos

[autouzi]

My dream car

[atventhusiasts]
