what is the difference between an ss and a z28?

a 1997 Camaro SS is faster than a 1997 Z8. How Can I make my 1997 Z28 into an SS?

They are actually pretty much the same car. An appearance package and suspension package are pretty much the only things that sets the two apart. A catback exhaust from SLP is also an option on the SS. But a few bolt-ons on the Z, and it will outrun a stock SS. Some lucky 97 SS owners did get the LT4 powerplant, instead of the LT1, which makes a good difference.
But other than that, I would rather have a Z28 over an SS because its cheaper. Unless you're just in love with the look of an SS, pretty much the same car. Once the mods start coming on, Z28 = SS.

Do a search, there are a lot of threads asking the same question.

yep. ive actually heard z28>SS (Even tho i have a sS) just cuz with the 1K more SS's can easily go for, you can do ::

intake, exhaust and have more hp then a SS (the SS intake gets heat soaked)

but the ss looks waaaaaay more badassed!!! that hood and back spoiler is sick!! and u cant go wrong with functional ram air, its just sweet! hell how many lt1 ss cars are out there? u dont see many of them so thats another reason to want one...everybody and their mom doesnt have one!
