Huh??

An IROC is a Camaro! With 115 posts, I would think that you would have known that. I guess I don't understand your question.

No need to be sarcastic .What I meant was souldn't it say camaro IROC or IROC or Z/28 IROC instead of just CAMARO .

I typed in all the RPO #'s and nothing came up about it having a Iroc package so it must be a clone right.

It depends on the year. 85-87 will have both the Z28 and the B4Z rpo code. 88-90 will just have the Z28 code to designate the IROC. Also, if the eighth digit of the VIN is an 8, it is an IROC (350). The VIN does not tell you anything about the specific model type, only the model itself. Check the door placard and see what size tires are listed. The 16" tires were only available with IROCs.

Not all IROCs came with 350's,and 350's didn't just come in IROCs, with 592 posts I thought you'ld know that. ( just returning the favior)

Thaks for all the other info.

What are you saying? I didn't say that the 350 was only in IROCs and that only IROC's had the 350. Based on the question you were asking, regarding an IROC, I gave the details needed to find out if it was an IROC. During the years of IROC production (85-90), the IROC was the only Camaro to get the 350. Also, when you asked about how to tell if it was a clone, I gave the 350 scenario (vin 8) as just another way to tell if the car you were looking at was a clone or not. You never mentioned the details about the car, so it is possible to check for the 8 to verify if the car is at least a 350, which is IROC specific.
