1985 Z28 5 speed pics & video link


My upgrade list includes; Complete L69 emblem package, Aerohead Racing 58 cc prepared 601's with 1.94 intake valves bowls blended & gasket matched, GM Offroad Cam 214/224 .444 .465 112 lsa, roller tipped rockers, GMPP ZZ4 intake ported & gasket matched, Cliffs Performance CC Quadrajet, Cometics gaskets throughout (expect pan 1 piece Fel-Pro), SLP Y-Pipe, "Free Flowing Cat"😉, 3" Cat Back, Summit 28 Spline Axles, 28 spline Yukon Limited Slip Diff, 4:10 gears. Even with the 305, if GM would have put that little cam and 4:10 gears behind the T5 or 3:73 behind the 700r4? I asure you that 3rd generation Camaro would have a completely different reputation. The 4:10's are amazing and Ive never been happier with the car.
My performance goals......spin tires and have fun, but look 100% stock!!

I love that it's still got the 80s 2 tone look and factory wheels. Most people paint the ground effects body color. I wouldn't change a thing about that car. Very retro and true to what a third gen is.

It's a very solid car and it has suprised a couple of unsuspecting victims 😉!!! I have been accused of it having a 350 or bigger a couple of times.
