2 Sweet Posted July 27, 2006 Report Share Posted July 27, 2006 My names Steve, I drive a '92 Chevy Camaro RS. It has over 190k miles on a mostly stock TBI 305 V8 (engine code LO3). Very durable engine, but pretty slow, I'll admit. Peanut cam, restrictive exhaust, poor flowing heads, throttle body injection, and being pretty detuned from the factory all adds up to 170 FWHP and 255 lb/ft tq in stock form. Throw in the auto tranny and 2.73 peg leg rear, and you've got yourself one slow Camaro! Luckilly the car handles very well and has tons of potential. All it has so far is a 3'' Flowmaster catback, dual snorkel intake, and a pretty big timing advance. I'm in college now (at CSCC) so it's taking a while to save some money but the car will be repainted very soon, and sometime in the next year or so I'm hoping to do an engine swap. Whats up everyone?

Guest BlackBimmer Posted July 28, 2006 Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 You have the rarest Camaro in the world, all the other ones were rwd. Go autocross it and let me know if you made it through any corner faster than 10mph without hitting cones or spinning out and I'll be impressed. I love you man, but damn!!! So Harsh!! :asshole: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2 Sweet Posted July 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2006 FWHP = FLYWHEEL HP. 170 hp at the crank, probably around 140-150 to the wheels. For a stock suspension setup it handles pretty nicely IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
