Im not trying to be annoying but the 8th one in mine is a "G" That shop owner said mine was the slower one or whatever, the 2002 trans am my mom had was a lot touchier to drive and felt faster than the z28 but it may have just been me.

Its the ls-1 so I dont know.

I used to see camaro's all the time but now it seems its rare to see an ss or a z28 around here.

sorry i meant to say G is for v8. the only thing that could make a little difference is the gears in the rear end, for autos some had 2.73 and others had 3.23 the 3.23 are a little faster. and i wouldn't trust that shop owner or take my car their if he said your car had a distributor.

[rallynova78]

whats the 8th letter in your vin? Ive been told it shows which distributor the car has. I believe the faster one is a "P" and the slower one is a "G"?

It was an owner of a shop so I would hope he knew what he was talking about mine has the slower one he said. Might be why the non ram air trans am is rated 5 hp better than my z28?

[12secZ28]

well our cars dont have distributors they use coil packs which are fired by the pcm, not sure what he was talking about. i can look up somewhere what the 8th number means.

[12secZ28]

p is just the code for the engine it means 5.7 liter v8, if you had any other letter it would be a v6

[rallynova78]

let me know if you want to trade the chrome wheels for the aluminum ones :D

I dont know how much it would cost to get those wheels

[12secZ28]

I have chrome zr1 wheels now, definitely dont want aluminum. i think i sold mine for 325 with bald tires.

My 98 z28 has a lid,filter,smooth bellow,flowmaster exhaust, and black zr1's with 315 nitto 555r's for shoes with a 3.42 gear (had the auto swap done miss the 6-speed) and a good tune no stall and best with auto was 14.2 @ 98 in vegas would do a mid 13 in pheonix

WAIT, ARE YOU SAYING MY CAR WITH LID, HEADERS, TRANS MOUNT, 3.23'S, BADASS TUNE, AND RAIDALS WILL PROBABLY RUN 12.8? Sorry for caps im just so damn excited to see what my car will do.

[x1713]

you are lose 20 hp to 10 hp on chrome rims aluminum rims are batter

i know the chrome are nicer but whene you are race put aluminum rims

thats what i do for my camaro ss 2001 but my newer camaro 2010 is nicer

check out my video

funny same mods that I had when I was bolt-on made about the same power. never really went to the track though, good vid!

[helrazr]

Pretty nice. There's a douche on youtube hat should see this. He swears an LS1 CAN NOT make it into the 12's w/o a cam even though I have a video of my '01 WS6 running a 12.9 with nothing more than an airlid, a cat-back, and some Street ET's. The LS series are great motors especially considering that they use cam under/push rod technology. Awesome bolt-on only run.

[jgav87]

Nice quarter mile numbers man! Is the mods you listed, all you have? And are you running drag radials? Im pullin 326 wrhp with no longtubes and im trying to figure out what to expect in the quarter mile..

[SCLUSC1]

Auto or 6spd?

[sixty9fordkiller]

ill remember that formula. how you came about such a precise number? I have no idea. but its good for a laugh i guess

[jsk8drummer]

@cptnoremac someone who put tens of thousands into the car while the camaro mabey had 10k put into it

it obviously wasnt a fair race lol the camaro dude was just showing one of his best passes in a long time from now his camaro will be looking a running like the other car

[YFZ450Racer17]

12.68 in the 1/4 is a 8.13 in the 1/8th..
