I was looking throught the tech data and I saw you have 7 listed as the VIN code for the Cross-fire cars. That is not right it is S not 7. Just thought you should know so as not to confuse anyone.

I WOULD RATHER PUSH A CAMARO THAN DRIVE AN IMPORT

1983Z28 350w/ edelbrock performer RPM power package with 64cc aluminum heads, dynomax shorty headers, 700R-4 with shift kit, 750cfm carb, edelbrock 3" exhaust system, ASCD SS hood, 16" IROC rims.

future mods:
completely done over suspension, black paint with flames, Hurst shifter, dakota digital gauge package, procharger supercharger.

 

The data is correct, but incomplete. Here are the engine codes:

1982
H = 305 Carb (RPO LG4)
7 = 305 CFI (RPO LU5)

1983
H = 305 Carb (RPO LG4)
S = 305 CFI (RPO LU5)
7 = 305 H.O. Carb (RPO L69)

I have no idea why GM changed the CFI engine from a "7" to an "S" for 1983.

oh ok I just looked at that section then I looked at my title and saw that it was an S. So I got confused. Maybe that has something to do with auto part stores always having the "H.O." listed as fuel injection in their comps.

Super83Z,

Thanks for the insight regarding the auto parts stores. Matt's car is missing a few things, and we got one for a "5.0 H.O." ....maybe we got the wrong one for an L69?????

I take it this is something we'll need to keep in mind when ordering parts for this thing...I was planning to go off the "7" from the VIN though.
