1988 IROC-Z Camaro - Lopey Idle and half throttle take off

[rabbitrace12]

Did anone else see the trees move when the Camaro flew by?

[ACHEESEDANISH00]

uh that was half throttle? kind of dissapointed

[FalloutMan493]

I gonna be honest. That fucking idle was amazing. I need that cam.

[chevellenut1968]

for 1 i have owned three 4th gen Z28s one 4th gen trans am two 2nd gen trans ams never had a problem for 2nd my mom had 79 my dad built a 68 camaro that ran 9s in the 70s and 80s and was in 74 chevy power magazine a verry good freind has a mint 69 rs so yea with all thouse bolt ons your car should do i know a bit more than you think and i do know a little bit about camaros

[vprtech]

As many others have asked about this car in the comments , WHAT CAMSHAFT IS IN IT ??? Also , do you know the compression ?

Thanks !

[c0olj]

@vprtech It has a Comp Cam: 276HR10. I have 1.6 rockers so it's Intake .535 in / Exhaust .544 in. Compression is 9:5:1 due to the stock pistons sitting around .020 in the hole.

[TransAMGTA1988]

Sounds great!

[357FACEOFF]

if i was to take the iroc's trans governor and put it in my 91 rs would it run better ?

[kronos89rs]

Sounds great man! All you need now is a good converter matched with the cam and gears and you're good. It's amazing the difference a converter makes well worth the extra $.

[firechicken76]

how much HP did it make?

[silentkillzr]

What cam is in that?, also would like to know you heads too

[TheJonyboy510]

that iroc picks up haha

[RunninCummins]

what are your cam specs? she sounds nasty

[c0olj]

@chevellenut1968 - Not trying to be a jerk, but unless the LT1 is modded pretty good, it's not going to be faster.

[v10viper04]

@c0olj Lt1's are easier to tune, (Plug and play) They have a MUCH better intake design from the factory then the L98 and for the most parts are pretty easy to make good numbers. Granted if you were to upgrade the TPI setup(which is quite expensive) then it can run damn good as well. I will say TPI engines and the LT1/L99 look better than an LS engine anyday. If you were stating modded L98 vs. stock LT1 then yea I would hope your faster....

[firechicken76]

@v10viper04 l=LS1>LT1 the engine bay look is all opinion. i find the ls1 to look much nicer.

[v10viper04]

@c0olj Wasn't trying to be a jerk either. I own an 89' Camaro 357/ T-56 and a Corvette getting an LTx transplant currently. I love both engine generations. LS's are nice but WAY TOO OVERPRICED! 2k for an LS1? HAHA

[hallis1]

@c0olj

Ive got a modded LT1, Heads/cam. But i'd still trade you for your IROC :)

[hotvenue]

@chevellenut1968

Yeah buddy, you might want to take a look at the 25 to 80 pull he posted

[camaroberlinette86]

@chevellenut1968 90s suck also noone wants to own a 90s Camaro booooo!! XP

[chevellenut1968]

@camaroberlinette86 lol my 94 is sold i own a 98 z28 ls1 m6 wich was one of the best camaros made

[camaroberlinette86]

@chevellenut1968 no the body style is ugly as fuck was one of the worst camaros ever made ask someone who owns a 60's, 70's 80's or 2009 or newer 90's camaros were shitty and something always went wrong in them.

[actionshark]

An L98 would have a more aggressive sound than a late model 4th gen LS1 simply due to the iron block vs aluminum.

[firechicken76]

@actionshark that makes no sense whats so ever. the material of the block has nothing to do with the sound of the engine. Exhaust, manifolds, cam, heads.....those all affect the sound of the engine, not the material. lol.

[thatracingkid]

what size cam and lifters are you running in that?

[skylurD]

hey what cam did you have?

[IROCaTPI]

not personally an fan of lopey idle's, i like them more clean sounding with an nice deep rumble. but she did sound good when you opened her up though! how much did you pay for hsr?

[josh666675]

sounds kinda v6 when you took off

[c0olj]

@josh666675 That's because it is a v6.

[TEEEJ69]

@c0olj but in the info it says l98 350 ? 350 is a v8

[c0olj]

@TEEEJ69 Yea I know, I was just goofing around.

[illbreakurface]

@c0olj did u have top get any extran wire to install the stealth ram or did the kit come with a harness?

[ericg83z]

@c0olj its true it does , i found that all the camaros sounded so lame untill the late 4th gens

[c0olj]

@ericg83z - Ugh.....Ok genius-lol

[ericg83z]

@c0olj seriously my 305 83z sounded brutal ,but its got an magnaflow which really helped!, how ever mustangs sounded so throaty.

[chevellenut1968]

@ericg83z  its the same fireing order

[jarrettselky]

What camshaft is this?specs?

[LeeMurphyRobertson]

So how much better do you think the Holley stealth intake is compared to the TPI because i have thought about swapping them out.

[sethster70]

what size cam and where did you get it i wont 1

[cronsformula350]

Doesn't sound too bad. As soon as it warms up, I'm gonna swap my lifters, throw in my cam and a 3000 stall from midwest converters. Then a tune! About $1000 bucks later, lol. F-body's, gotta love 'em!

[missmyirocz]

sounds disgusting. thats amazing

[KyleP133]

What cam is that? It sounds insane.

[c0olj]

Thanks! It has a full 3" exhaust with a medium powerstick muffler at the end.

[xlelanolx]

Awesome car, sounds great! What kind of muffler is that?
