looking at exaust and intake, no headers made for it and no chips that do anything for it either.

1994 Camaro Z28
-QTP Electric Cutout
-Weight reduction: spare tire/jack

LOL...

I am currently between jobs now... once I get some money coming in, next in line will be LT headers and a CAI. I'm not doing too much yet because it is on 194,8--k miles Once those are on, I'm saving for a while to get either a complete bottom end rebuild or a short block, either way it should end up being 355ci with some lighter pistons and rods, reworked crank, then I'll proceed with a 400+hp heads/cam package

oh yeah i do have a few camaros in the mix also
mine are quite mild and i see much more performance and able to make more power easier with the cars i have choosen so until i sell my 3 camaros(89 5 speed freshened up 350(rings bearings polished everything mild 470 lift cam and 56 cc stock heads approx 11 to 1 comp. ios about all that has thats good for it other than the 5 speed also has 3" exhaust custom bent by local shop , then i got a 87 also t top built up th350 trans (manual reverse valve body 600 ft lbs traction bar, limited slip posi rear axel also sporing ruffly the same single 3" exhaust only thing missing is the motor thingy.... seems to be mising,, then i have the last of my camaros it being a 1981 in near mint body but it is in d\ier need of paint and entire drivetrain short of a rear axel and the tranny is in it but has sat for nearly 12 years.... rebuild)

after that im left with my z series cars as i stated i have the 300 nearly completed for what i want
then comes my 280
and the combing hair meant that there was a mirror finish on the pistons not that they were bristly lol
then comes the last of all that i currently own at a 1986 300 zx currently rotted exterioir bodi(remarkabley the undercoated underside is near mint (already checked with the old screw driver technique that i was taught (i sorta made it a little more educated my using thinners to remove the under coating to shw bear m,etal in several spot the screw driver you just scratch some off)
of to with is gonna be roll caged and have absolutly no interior short of 2 racing bucket seats (you have to have a buddie for this one) a steering wheel the shifter and shit ton of gauges and a pretty roll cage to hold you close at night ......... oh wait sorry.......... and a set of low comp pistons (turbo bottom holds from the head gasket down with arp bolts up to 1000 hp.... not that ill get close to that but sorta like insurance) but any way im probably boring the oines that are still listening so
ill finish witht thias
remember the boosted 280 setup i said weith like 7.2 to one compression i figure im gonna throw in some 2 mm head gaskets on top of that to see...... talk about boost aught to hold a bit
