5 speed 230 hp convertible: Any of these made? That would be a fun car.

My assumption is to get 230hp, you required G92 which was 5 speed as well....and G92 wasn't available on official GM verts. (89-92)

I think the max HP you could get in a GM authorized Camaro convertible was 220 in 88-89. The G92 option was discontinued for vert's in 88. In 91-92 the 305 for verts was rated at 205.

So, you could get a 5 speed vert but it was the 205hp single cat version and sans G92?
