How do you tell if an 88 Camaro is an IROC?
The best way to tell if the car is an “authentic” IROC-Z is to look at the VIN number and, most importantly, the RPO codes (granted the “faker” didn't swap out the center console with a real IROC-Z, then you would have to decode all of the numbers and figure out if the vehicle is indeed an IROC.)
What Camaro came with a 305?
The Camaro IROC-Z was on Car and Driver magazine's Ten Best list for 1985. The 305 c.i. 5.0-liter TPI LB9 was rated at 215 hp (160 kW), with the 4-bbl 305 LG4 at 155 hp, and the 4-bbl High Output 305 L69 at 190 hp (142 kW). A total of 2,497 L69 IROC-Z models were made for 1985.
What engine is in a 88 Camaro IROC-Z?
The base engine was the LG4 5.0-liter V8 with 155 horsepower and 245 lb. -ft- of torque. It was available with either a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission. Next up was the carbureted L69 305-cubic inch V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 lb.
How do I know if my Z28 is real?
There is NO code in the VIN that recognizes a Z28 in any first generation Camaros. Late '69 Camaros had an "X" code on the trim tag though. A Protect-o-plate can be helpful in identifying a first gen. Z28 but be careful because there are places that make reproductions of both trim tag and protect-o-plate.
How much HP does a 305 V8 have?
The 305 Chevy engine covers many years and models. What are the specs for a 305 Chevy engine? It's a 305 cubic inch (5.0 liter) small-block V8, featuring a 3.743-inch bore. Depending on the year and engine sub-model, you can see HP ranging from about 160 to 230.
What year did the 305 Chevy engine come out?
The Chevy 305 was first introduced in 1976.
How do you tell if your Camaro is a true SS?
A '67 Camaro has a code on the trim tag for an SS and a late '69 Camaro had an "X" code on the trim tag to identify some SS's. The X11 code is the only exception to identifying a true '69 SS Camaro because the code also means a plain Camaro. Unfortunately there are no codes on a '68 Camaro to help identify an SS.
What year was the fastest IROC-Z?
Sure, it was on par with the offerings of those other manufacturers, and at least it came with a V8. The 1990 Camaro offered the most power of the third-gen at 245 horsepower. In fact, the research I did shows the 1990 IROC-Z traveled 0 to 60 mph in 5.7 seconds and tripped the quarter-mile lights in 14.20 seconds.
What motor did the IROC-Z have?
The 1990 IROC-Z was powered by either a 5.0-liter V-8 or a 5.7-liter V-8. Both engine were variations on Chevy's long-running small-block design. The base 5.0-liter mill put out 210 horsepower at 4,400 rpm and 285 foot-pounds of torque at 3,200 rpm.
