I love it when they put the 4 gen Camaros on their show. They had a 2000 SS on the show once. They put it on the dyno. It had 302.7 at the wheels I believe. They used this Royal Purple oil, transmission fluid, ect. They gained about 7 more horsepower. I think it was called Royal Purple, or something like that. I'm sure if I'm wrong someone will definitely correct me. What day does the 98 SS show air????

yup, royal purple...... in my 383 I use 10W30 in the winter and 20w50 in the Hot south carolina Summers

youre right about a slightly lower charge, that is IF you make use of a new alternator pulley, there are sets that come without this that still claim to make 10+ hp.

where can i find an alternator pulley? and what about the straps(you know on the pulley that black long thing, or can i use my stock ones? and that 99 ss is on this saturday like at 12 or 1

Ive heard from a few reputable pearsons that you should never use aftermarket underdrive pulleys.. Because they mess with the harmonic dampner or something and they leave too much vibration on the crankshaft.. Very hard on the engine.. Anyone have any input???

Aftermarket UD pulleys will change the harmonics if they completely relace your dampner. on an LT1 car, the Dampner gets reinstalled over the UD pulley and the harmonics are not harmed.
