There were 62,650 z28's made in 83 and 19,847 had the 305 CFI engine that you have. 51,471 83 camaros had t-tops.

Hope this helps!!!

are you sure you have posi? IS you do then it is not original because all CFI cars had an open differential.

I WOULD RATHER PUSH A CAMARO THAN DRIVE AN IMPORT

I disagree with that statement. Not all CFI cars were open dif. The CFI being the upgraded engine would more than likely also carry the upgraded or performance rear end. In either case, my 82 Z28 with CFI had POSI and I bought the car when it was a year old.

The CFI WAS available with posi. My 82 trans am is a CFI/posi combo and I know it's original. Wendyz28's car sounds legitimate.
