Re: z28 or SS engine
I personally don't think the SS is worth an extra 2 grand to the retail price of the camaro (according to Kbb). 89 IROCrs is right. The intake is the only drivetrain difference, which is good for a mere 15 horsepower. Which brings the LS1's output from 305 to 320. (310 to 325 in 2001+). However, don't get me wrong, if you find an SS at a good price, I say go ahead and take it. Not only does it have 15 more horses, but it also comes with bigger tires and wheels (245/16 to 275/17), higher spoiler, and an upgraded suspension.

Re: z28 or SS engine
I used to think they were sooooo much better. Whenever I'd see one it be like, Run for the hills! But shit they don't hardly have much of an edge over a Z28.

Re: z28 or SS engine
so did i, until i drove one.. i didnt really even notice that much of a difference.. but a lot of people that buy the SS are blind to the fact that its more or less an appearance package than performance.. sure there are some upgrades, but buy a Z and put 2k into it.. and it'll blow an SS away..

Re: z28 or SS engine
Is there a SS Z28 camaro. One of my teachers was talking to the class about the cars he had owned. He mentioned that he had a SS Z28 camaro and I kept on wondering all day if there was such a thing.
