Both those articles are in "High Performance Camaros 1982-88" published by Brooklands Books.
That and "High Performance Firebirds 1982-88" by the same publisher are must-have reads for any third genner IMO. I own both

Nice article. They even had the M39 T5 in the IROC with the highway OD and 3.08 gears. Imagine if they were able to test the G92 for that atricle with 3.45s.

Pretty cool articles, I would say some what biased since they are testing the sport model Fbodies but base model Supra and 300zx. I have owned or driven every car on the test and turbo versions are way more fun to drive than the N/A versions.
