Stafford va IROC Z crate TPI 350 Hot cam,edel headers,80 flow,3" catback

[WHITEPOPOLO]

nice sound to it

[V8TransAmGTA]

Have you dyno tested your IROC after engine installation and have you been on track???

I am very curious about that engine because I want that engine for my GTA.

[2871josh]

if 4 sale email me

[TWBouska]

it sounds great. having always drove pre 75 chevys ive never messed will fuel injection..just picked up a 87 vette with 83k original miles that needs a motor rebuilt (owner let it run out of oil) so im hoping to learn how to unlock performance out the tbis while still passing emissions which are strict in california

[CSXRockford]

Sounds stuffy with that shitty ass flowmaster.

[mightydunk1]

did you take it to the track yet? whats it run?

[irocz28iroc]

I posted a new video of the car at idle to show its lope, not much of one but I wanted a car that wouldn't stall ha ha. Also the engine has been properly broken in so it runs much better now.

[broskiman478]

Dude that is my dream car! Its would better than what i have now (1993 Mercury Sable with original 60k, 3.0L)

[brapboys503]

I want a big ass strut tower bar like that in my 1990 Chevy truck.

[BIGK241]

Its so hard to find a good running 350 tpi iroc let alone cheap I got so lucky buying mine for 1000 bucks and it looks and runs good

[firechicken76]

id say 360 flywheel hp is about right.

[RunninCummins]

she's idling a bit high isn't she?

[irocz28iroc]

@RunninCummins Yea ever since I installed a coolant TB byass it has. But it's random. Usually it's nice and lopey. I didn't let the motor heat up before the video though so it was cold. I'm going to do a new video very soon with a warm engine so you can hear it lope.

[privateryan245]

@irocz28iroc

hey man awesome car, i have a couple of questions, im 18 dont know much about purchasing or setting up to get a new engine. but anyways. i have a 1990 camaro rs v6 and I NEED MORE POWER lmao. would i be able to drop a v8 in without any problems? and lastly where do you go to have some one install it professionally? is that just something you can take to any shop?

[glenlackey2]

@privateryan245 You would be better off selling the V6 and getting a V8 instead of trying to do a full conversion plus one day the IROC-z will be a collector and the V6 wanna-be will never be. Good Luck.

[TWBouska]

@privateryan245 first question, yes, any small block chevy v8 pre 87 will bolt right in. second, a lot of shops out there will do motor swaps, but you want to read reviews and such to find a good one. a lot of people will rip you off. if you want to have fun cars to drive id advise starting to learn most of the work youself...i started out with an el camino just messing around trying to learn how to maintain my own car and ended up becoming a mechanic...you never know what will happen.

[TeenageTesla]

wow thats sick

[7025730168]

what a beautiful car man! i wanna get a 1987 camaro irock-z and put a 350 bored out 50 over put a monster cam in it and put some duals on it wit cherry bombs on it lol i kno its alot

[ACLongboard]

nice license plate haha

[DGKall2010]

hey you should try some of the TPIS mini rams and the super mini rams and tell me how you like them

[cruzplcs]

What type of Cam did you use, trying to upgrade 1988 chevy camaro 5.7

[irocz28iroc]

@cruzplcs

It comes with the GM hot cam kit installed.  It's .525 .525 218 228*

[IrocZCamaro88]

whats your setup?

[irocz28iroc]

@IrocZCamaro88

Not to complicated really. A TPI crate motor from SDPC2000.com. 52mm TB, tune from PCMforless, 24lb injectores, fuel pressure reg., 700R4 W/2400 stall, trans cooler, factory Borg W 9 bolt 7.75" rear 3.27 gears, factory posi, tower strut, Eibach sport kit.

[Red4Delta]

awsome sound! Favorting this as a reference for mine.lol

[matapollos15]

im trying to make a smog legal 350 any tips/ ideas? i have an rs with a 305 i bought the upper/lower manifold, harness, cpu, intake, etc for the conversion from tbi to tpi but i want to make it a 350 and have no idea where to start

[irocz28iroc]

@matapollos15

I actually didn't pass emmision as it has such low miles. I just registered it in a non emmision county. However I did take the test 4 times. My smog #'s cut in half each time after I drove a couple hundred miles between tests. I'm sure now I would pass. But I'm not positive. Take a look at the Edelbrock tubular exhaust with air and try to get a regular cat conv. I went with a high flow Dynomax and that may be the reason I struggled through emmisions. Goodluck.

[chriswlf3]

@irocz28iroc hey man i gotta 1992 Camaro RS 25th anniversary with the 305 TBI and ive left some people but is there any performance parts i could get for it .........i have flowmasters and im wokin on headers ...is there a TPI conversion kit i could get for it? idk if they make those lol

[MetalRulesRapSux]

@matapollos15 you dont need to pass emissions with a 3rd gen...

[TWBouska]

@MetalRulesRapSux you do in california

[cwish2014]

love the car man. i have an 89 rs that needs a good restoration, then when i'm done im turnin around and sellin it all stock. then gonna buy maybe an 88 or 89 iroc with the 5.7. with the 350's do you have to format the engine to handle a better cam like yours?

[ahmad732]

i wonder can u put that in in an rs without changin any wire hornest...and computer...?

[dirtyred324]

"too sweet", I have a 1990 IROC with the 305tpi. "YES" that 305 has to go. what crate engine would you suggest. I'm thinking about staying with my 305 heads, 2.5 exhaust, with a spintech muffler. Please help a fellow Iroc'er.

[rzeric]

Very nice....Check out my 1988 355/tpi/dart motor in mine

[rzeric]

ive got a 355 tpi zz4 motor in mine check my videos. Nice iroc you have

[peavy400]

I have the same intake, The runners are different from 88 on maybe you had the wrong year runners. They will Work.

[nonstop454]

where do you get that strut bar?? please answer

[irocz28iroc]

I got it at Summit but it looks like only hawksthirdgenparts has them now. $180

[nonstop454]

@irocz28iroc thank you

[irocz28iroc]

For $4650 you can get a turnkey 330hp/380lb.ft engine. I'd do this next time.

330HP / 350 Deluxe Turn Key GM Performance Parts Crate Engine Assembly

19210009

[irocz28iroc]

Ram Jet 350 PFI GM Performance Parts Crate Engine Assembly 12499120 comes with wiring harness and has similar power.

[irocz28iroc]

I used my factory TPI harness because my car came from the factory with a 350. But any TPI factory wires work.

[irocz28iroc]

The hot cam specs are: Hydraulic Roller Camshaft Kit LT1/LT4 Hot Cam Kit (218/228, .525/.525)

[irocz28iroc]

I have not dyno'd yet or raced it.

[irocz28iroc]

I got it from sdpc2000. com

[camarolove0885]

i have a 92 rs 25th anniversery it came with a 3.1 v6 but it through a rod. i want to install a 350 tpi motor in it but i cant find one for the life of me. where did you buy yours? and did it come with the cpu and wiring harness??

[irocz28iroc]

@camarolove0885 Also "painless" has all replacement TPI stuff. Full harnesses too.

[zeta177]

what year camaro is this?

[outcastMETALchild89]

@zeta177 1987

[LeeMurphyRobertson]

What are the specs on the cam if you dont mind?

[cshabby]

did u ever bring this to a track or dyno? im building this same engine setup for my 86 iroc right now

[rzeric]

sweet car ,check out mine..

[74dodge92]

absolutely beautiful this is my dream car currently i have a dodge(i love my dodge)but i would turn around and sell or trade it instantly if i could find a iroc blue camaro with a factory 350tpi t tops and the grey leather and cloth interior these cars are amazing and and if lowered properly supposably they handle like there riding on rails

CHEVY POWER

[Crosisborg]

Dude if you are going to wait to find one with exactly what you want already on it... you will never own one. Buy a friggin IROC and restore it to what you want. Sheeesh

[matapollos15]

@74dodge92 i own a 1992 but its not an iroc its the cheap model rs but with the v8 and it handles really well.....

[gumbo189]

Ive smoked my friends SI with my 305, so go screw yourself RICER BOY

[clovischris559]

Lets be honest guys. My SI Civic would destroy this car. You guys just don't understand the raw power of the 2 liter Vtek. Floor it and I'm gone

[ryanbeemus]

??? Raw power of a 2 liter vtek??? you must be dreaming? yeah ive driven one and its nothing special in fact my Pontiac G5 with the 2.2 Ecotek would smoke the crap out of an si civic!!! and i know for darn sure that my 89 camaro rs with the 305 tpi stock would leave you crying.... wanna race for pinks lmao i need a new demolition derby car!!!!!!! put the foreign crap where it belongs in the the rubbish bin Drive Quality Drive American!!!

[APontiacof455cubes]

@ryanbeemus its idiots like u that make us Americans look bad. If you want quality, 3rd gen camaros are far from it. Squeak's, rattles, shitty plastic'y interiors are just a few of the things that plague 80's and '90s GM products. Great performance vehicles, great motors, trannies and rear ends....but most everything else is a joke compared to anything Nissan, BMW, Lexus produced then.

[megaenvy]

Yea but you know what you don't understand? You spent what, $30,000 plus on your civic? With less then $10,000, I could build a camaro like this that you would never be able touch. And I still have $20,000 to go. Now let's be honest, you don't know what the hell your talking about.

[Crosisborg]

Vtec is a good design but its not what you think it is. Bottom line, rice is rice and I dont care if your rice machine did 8 second 1/4 miles, it will always sound like a sewing machine and men dont drive sewing machines. Your car looks ridiculous and sounds worse.

[Artyfil]

Veerrryyy nice IROC man. I love how you put in a new engine and kept the clean factory look. How well do those aftermarket TPI accessories boost power?

[irocz28iroc]

@Artyfil Not really sure since I put in an engine at the same time. But Edelbrock claims the runners add 20HP.

[fireman01723]

love the look and sound of that car!

[nuthinbuttrubl89]

The only problem I had with the edelbrock headers is the plug for cylinder 1 is virtually impossible to reach... i had to install the plug on my car with a "modified" socket (a deep plug socket with 2 sides ground off). it worked out well.

[megaenvy]

That is a very nice 87 iroc. Love the blue.

[camarofix]

yeh and break it...

[VinceJ]

he is wrong slp runners will work. who ever told you was wrong!

[peavy400]

WRONG ,WRONG,WRONG the TPI edlebrock intake does fit with SLP runners i just did on my 85 vette .

[irocz28iroc]

@peavy400 Remember all of you that I'm not using a stock TPI intake.  It's an upgraded by Edelbrock that came with the crate motor. I am using a stock TPI upper plenum though. It didn't fit.

[TheMaster926]

very, very, VERY nice car and exhaust note. Favorited.

[peavy400]

SLP Runners wont work with edelbrock intake, CAN YOU PLEASE GIVE A REASON WHY. I am about to do the same thing. Thanks

[cohan320]

very clean

[BigRoger07]

Good job....now come work on my Camaro!! LoL

[camaro88iroc]

disregard my last comment, didn't hear u clearly because of all the noise underhood

[camaro88iroc]

what do you mean by "the SLP runners wont fit the stock TPI"????? cause online it says it will and there are 2 diff. types depending on year model?

85-88 for 1 set of SLP runners and

89-92 for the other set of SLP runners

[Combatinfantryvet83]

That is a bad ass ride my friend. Very nice!

[irocz28iroc]

I have been running 24# inj. on this motor. Oops. This motor has to have 30#. I'll post another vid once this gets done and the chip gets retuned for the bigger injectors.

[outcastMETALchild89]

hey how much did you lower the car?

[camaro4eva]

very nice sounds awsome

[ls6guy]

nice iroc-z come by and see mines

[32valveNstar]

Very nice third gen. Are you still running the stock chip and injectors?

[irocz28iroc]

I'm in Stafford.

[sa1911a1]

Great 3rd Gen, What part of Va you from ? I'm in Fredericksburg.  I've got the Yellow 86Z28.

[327am]

can i make my 305 into a 350 its a tuned port injection

[Irkie500]

no its impossible to turn a 305 into a 350 however serveral of the parts from a 350 will fit the 305.

[3gencamaroguy]

omg omg man your car is AMAZING, I LOVE IT, its such a clean iroc man please make more vids of it. SOUND SO NICE!!

[irocz28iroc]

They are shorter and offer more high RPM HP than the stock ones. SLP claims 20hp. Not sure about how much Edel. adds. I'm starting to like the way the Edel's look.

[ls6guy]

cool because im goin tobe beefing up my 85 iroc im not sure if i should keep the tpi or go with a lsx motor

[ls6guy]

do those new intake runners flow any better then your old ones or no

[irocz28iroc]

Thanks. It's been a crazy project. I just need to get 4th gen seats front and back installed and a headliner to finish it off.

[calichevylover]

awesome man i love it!!!!!

[ls6guy]

sweet iroc-z
