Third Gen Camaro Magazines?

I've been looking for a good magazine for more info on Third Gen Camaros - this board is a great source of info, but I was looking for something like they have for mustangs (Fast Ford & Muscle Mustangs, 5.0, etc.).

I have checked out High Performance Chevy - but they seem more focused on the older Chevy's (pre-85). There Feb issue does have an article on improving the handling of a third gen RS (not sure why they didn't start with a Z-28 or Iroc, but that's a different story).

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

I have actually seen a magazine called CAMARO, I think its every other month, but I see it every now and then. CHP had a whole series that they were doing to an 87 Camaro a while back, they bought for $500 or something...

I dont own a Camaro, but I buy mags that have third gen camaros in them because I can use most of the info on a firebird, I imagine it would go both ways

GM High performance
Pontiac High Performance

Car Craft almost changed thier name to Camaro Craft a few years back because it seemed that was all they were concentrating on, but I have not looked through one of them lately.

Ususally I look through the mags at the Grocery store (I am showing my age) and pick up something when I see it rather than having a subscription.

GM High Tech Performance is your best chance if you want to see 3rd gens in print more then once every 2 years.

Yeah the Camaro magazine is quarterly annual and it's produced by CHP, so you see the same stuff gracing the pages of both magazines (tech wise).

I am just surprised that some magazine has not picked up on the idea to make a Camaro & Firebird magazine. They could do an article for each of the gens every month.

doubt it would ever happen.
