85 iroc

Hola

well ok, im not sure whats up here but someone told me about a 85 iroc thats suppost to be in perfect shape with 1,500 miles on it...only thing thats got me wondering is they said its a 350 tpi...was that possible for that year? the guy wants 3500 for the car and if its in as good of shape as ive been told (and thats its real motor) it will be bye bye firebird and hello iroc..but is it possible to get a 350 tpi in a car that old? its power everything black leather...and i think even black outsides with silver iroc stuff. thanks

The 350 TPI's started in 87 with only 50 being made in 86, so thats not the stock engine.

No, at least not originally. The first official year for a regular production 350 in a third generation Camaro was 1987.

Leather interiors were also introduced in 1987, but NEVER in black on third generation Camaros.
