All Camaro 350's from 1990-1992 were Hard tops.

Oh good fun fact so convertibles had to be 305's or v6 obviously. Are 91 z28 rare ?

Its a nice car but not really rare. The thirdgen convertibles were V8's I believe.

The top engine that you could get in a thirdgen convertible was some form of the 305 such as the LB9, L03, LG4.

From '90-'92 all L98 cars had the G92 performance package. This included the dual cat exhaust, 3.23 gear posi rear end with the L98. Also for '90-'92 IROC's and Z28's with the L98 were only available as a hard top like the other poster mentioned.

With that being said there were not a lot of '91-'92 Z28's made in the first place. With only a little over 100,000 miles and its a 21 year old car, thats low in terms of miles.

Can you post some pictures up of the car?

How can I tell if my car is a 1LE ?

Look in the consol or in the trunk lock box. All the RPO codes for the car should be there. Look for the code 1LE.

The easiest way for us to figure that out is if you have a 1LE (if your car is still mechanically stock) is to tell us if your car has air conditioning or not.

3rd gen 1LE's didn't have air conditioning installed from the factory. You would also have the twin piston caliper 11.86'' front brakes. All non-1LE cars got the standard single pistion 10.5'' front disc brakes. The car would also not have fog lights installed in the grill either. Those are some things to look for when someone says that they have a stock '91-'92 Z28 1LE.

I will try to post some pictures up by tommorow I have been posting using my phone. What would the cars value be? It does need paint. Seats are perfect, dash has a crack. Leather steering wheel. 140mph cluster of course. Carpets are nice.

Sounds like a nice car. I just can't have a 3ed gen without T-tops LOL!

According to Compnine, No 1LE.

The car also fails the other tests, it has A/C (RPO C60) and fog lights (T96)

You have a nice car, just enjoy it. You will learn a lot about thirdgens on this site. Welcome to the club!

scottmoyer

Amazing how people don't read what they don't want to.

OP, it's a run of the mill car, there were thousands and thousands made.

okfoz

To give you some perspective:
There was at least 352 with ALL of the following

81U Red Exterior
19C Black CLOTH Interior
L98 350 Engine
G92 Performance Axle (I think by 91, all of them had this)
Z28

With that said, there was only 99 of the above sent to California Dealers.


The car is not "Rare" by any stretch, however a nice find regardless. Enjoy it, have some fun.

thank you, quick questions the tranny is automatic obv all of the 5.7 were auto in 91 but the tranny is A4 which means what? is it a 700r4?

1991 z28 5.7 350 tbi ^

AmorgetRS

iTrader: (6)

It's a 700R4

Also, you should have TPI, not TBI. If it is TBI then that was swapped on.

I like this thread. This gives us all a chance to go over 3rd gen history and educate an new member.

I was a teenager when I first got in to 3rd gens and I read every book or magazine article I could find on them.

I can't tell you how many people I have meet that have no idea about 3rd gens or over look them. You can do a lot to these cars and go crazy with mods or keep them stock and enjoy them that way to.

KG427KG427 stay on the site and keep asking questions. You will get your 3rd gen questions answered here.

Did you take any pics of your car yet? Ha ha we all have been talking about it so much it would be good to see it.

Ya I'm very new just trying to learn a few things.

Does my 1991 z28 5.7 have a 700r4 tranny ?

86T/A_Ram_Air

Yes, but it was recoded for 91-92. But in a nutshell its a 700R4. Also should have Tuned Port Injection (TPI) and not a carb or Throttle Body Injection (TBI)

You do not have a 1LE. How ever someone could have done a 1LE brake swap. Its a somewhat popular swap because you can have better brakes and the stock wheels still fit over it.

Your car isn't super rare but it has some rareity to it, It's a 350 car and thats always a little special. Actually all of our cars Have some rareity because of cash for clunkers and cars that were destroyed via accident or cars that were to far gone to be saved and have lived on doing service in other cars

Tune port injection 5.7

Nope, 2 piston in front would be 1LE, and the calipers would be aluminum, not Cast Iron. You can measure the diameter of the brakes, if the rear brakes are larger than the front brakes, then you have a the standard brakes. (fronts 10.5" rears 11.75") If you have 11.75 on all four corners then you have the 1LE brakes. Keep in mind Baer, and several other aftermarket companies sell conversion kits. I think a typical 1LE front brake kit runs about $700-$800...
