Greatest engines.

Alright im wondering what were the best engines used in Camaros. Im talking the best engines for every gen. Like one for 1st gen, another for 2nd gens and so on, also it can be special option like Yenko, berger and what not, but im more interested in hearing about common options.

Any 2002 that landed the LS6 block.
That is all I really know about though, not sure about the other gens.

first gen - the 427 yenko and berger camaros

second gen - not sure

third gen - the 350tpi i believe, not sure if there were any specialty third gen engines

fourth gen - the LS1/LS6 engines. they have such a flat torque curve.

On third gen's, if your just talking Camaro then yes 350 TPI but if your talking all F-bodys the 89 TTA Trans am with the grand national turbo 3.8 would take that honor. Although I am a huge fan of the TPI seeing as I have had 3 vettes with them and loved them all.

Oh crap, I should've put Fbodys not just Camaros because i've heard about some Firebirds with crazy engines in them, whats up with that? No love for the Camaro, lol. Well what about T/As then.
