Anyone have a B4C Camaro?

Anyone with a B4C Camaro here?

I have a quick question that I need answered.

Does your car also show Z28 on your SPID?

Re: Anyone have a B4C Camaro?

most of the 1992 camaro RS B4C'S went to the police departments. there was only 550 of them made. they had the 305 tip engine with posi trac. rear end. but not a Z28 look! they looked like a just another RS. they where far from it. good luck. Joey

I'm pretty sure that it was the same as a z28, only badged as an RS. Pretty sure it had a L98 too.

Re: Anyone have a B4C Camaro?

Yeah it was basicly a Z28 with RS badges.. I saw one recently over here when I was filling up my Monte Carlo.. it looks weird because the white is on the hood roof and back and the rest is black.. you can tell its a cop because it has the spot lights on em..

Re: Anyone have a B4C Camaro?

Thanks guys. I guess I should be more specific.

How about someone with a more recent body style? I'm looking at a 2000 model. I need to know if your B4C Camaro also has Z28 on the SPID.

Re: Anyone have a B4C Camaro?

i don't believe z28 appears on the rpo stickers of b4c camaros even though they have z28 equipment.
91-92 b4c had the TPI350/auto or TPI305/5 speed combos
93-97 b4c had LT1/auto
98-02 b4c had LS1/auto

on the 91-92's that I have seen the TPI305/auto seems to be around 70% of the 5~~.

91-92 B4C never had the 305TPI/auto. they had a choice between 305TPI/5speed and 350TPI/auto

Interesting. I have been pricing a new car for myself to drive to work. I want something more fun than my 86 Caprice.

Insurance cost is a concern. So I have been checking with the agent. I looked at a 97 z28. The price was the highest of anything I looked at so far, even more than the BWMs and MB cars of the same age.

The agent told me it was because of the dreaded "Z28". So now I have found several B4Cs.... Since they don't have the dreaded "Z28", they shooouulldd be cheaper to insure. Right??

well..... most insurance companies go by the VIN. lets use a newer b4c as an example. u could tell them its just a base coupe but when they see a VIN that shows an LS1, then they might think its a Z28.

I'm hoping that will work.

It did with my W41. They made no mention of the W41 or 442.

They checked the VIN and it came back as a base Calais S.

Saves me some $$$ every year.

just depends on the company i guess. u might even be able to insure one under collector car insurance like grundy or hagerty ( i know one has no model year or mileage limitations).

Re: Anyone have a B4C Camaro?

I have a 97 b4c. When i called my insurance agent, she asked for the vin. It cames up in her system as a z28. I also have to id it as a Z28 when i get parts for it.

Re: Anyone have a B4C Camaro?

I thought on the spid it would say b4c instead of z28. It doesnt really have the z28 package just mostly the drivetrain right?
