I would image from the pic's a 305 TBI, actually I think all '91 and '92 RS Convert's were 305 TBI.

Looks nice, Later, Garrett

The 305 was standard, but you could get a v-6 and credit delete if you really wanted a v-6 badly enough.

Most likely it a 305.

I dunno, maybe it's just me, but there's just something about that body that looks odd...

To me, the door and spoiler are the same color, but the rear quarter isn't. It could be a shadow, or that the door isn't closed all the way. The hood lines up with the front clip about the same as I've seen on most Camaros, but the hood to fender gap appears to increase as it gets closer to the nose. It could be that, like my car, the hood sticks up slightly at the bottom. Interestingly enough, the ground effects on the front 1/4 appear to be pulled away from the fender below the marker light. On the bright side, the door seam appears to be constant in relation to the fender.

The front wheel, being turned towards the camera, causes a slight optical illusion that compunds all the problems that picture has. Low res, poor composition and incorrect lighting are a used car sellers best friend.

It has the 16" wheels which were available only with the V8. The GFX and fender gap is common with these cars.
