Re: What should Chevy's next step with the Camaro be.
...Like I said. They both make good engines. When your looking at weight-horsepower Chevey's are better. I dont know why, but thats what my auto teacher told me. He's a Ford guy and he can admit that they are better if your looking for weight-horsepower

In my experience, Ford has always made more HP per CID. That is an unbiased opinion since I am a mopar man.

Re: What should Chevy's next step with the Camaro be.
Don't get me started on why they barely make engines over a 350 now days. In the 70's the government ruined muscle cars. They made them lower the compression and use unleaded fuel etc.

One government requirment I hate is the catilylitic(or however you spell it)converters. They ruined True dual exhausts. Buy a '74 or before car, there are not near as many requirements.

Chevys do have the best Power to weight ratio, especially back in the late 60's early 70's when they were messing around with prototype engines, and then would dump them in consumer vehicles to get rid of them. My father bought a '70 Z-28 (which i now have) and ended up with an all aluminum 350. The guys at the local Indy car shop which he is friends with played around with it and it pulls about 525HP at 10,000 rpms when they were through, and can do about a high 10's 1/4. Talk about a screammer, ...

Mustang really seems to own the genre right now. The best way to trump them would be to make a body-on-frame Camaro. That would present a real choice.

Re: What should Chevy's next step with the Camaro be.
http://hp-car.com/2005.html that camaro slightly redesigned plus the Z06s 405hp LS6, with say..a $25,000 base price. I'd buy it in a fucking heartbeat.

Re: What should Chevy's next step with the Camaro be.
Just to point out, the Chevy 572 makes 620HP on pump gas.
Just picture slapping a turbo on that baby!!! Talking 1200HP real quick with intercoolers, high boost and alky injection. |

Re: What should Chevy's next step with the Camaro be.
RIGHT ON! It MUST be rear wheel drive and not overpriced like the poor GTO. Just as in the 60's, Mustang performance and price is the target!
