Twin TPI third gen
Twin TPI third gen
I remember a magazine I had in about 93-94 that had a red twin TPI car in it with a big block I think. Six speed too I belive... And they were calling it a ZL1. It's all a little foggy in my memory but I know I didn't dream it up. Anyone remember this car?

Re: Twin TPI third gen
There was also a TV special showing Ford build the BOSS and GM build the ZL1 and the competition also. Was interesting. At one point the Camaro blew the rear out, and they swapped it right at the track.
