I've heard all these codes referring to motors in third generation cars. What code would a 92 305 TPI be?

------------------
90 Wrangler with 305 TPI motor out of 92 Firebird Formula/ SM465 tranny/ Scout Dana44's on 35" BFG's

 

Pretty sure it's LB9.

 

ill second that, LB9 is the code!

it's an lb9 an contrary to popular belief L98's never came in a 3rd gen a lot of people ask me if my old engine is an l98 i say no it's a b2l and i get looked at like i have ford stamped on my forehead

 

L98 never came in thirdgens?, WTF I though the 350 TPIs were L98's


------------------
89 Trans Am Turbo 3.8L All stock 43,000 miles #1053 of 1555

Past Thirdgen:
86 Trans Am w/ built 355TPI with SLP goodies and too much other stuff to List. One sweet *** car, wish I would have had a good enough Job to pay insurance on three cars so I could keep it, but for a 89 Turbo Trans Am w/ Low miles, I think I made the right choice!

DAMN, I guess GM lied to me, someone must've retrofitted them after leaving the factory

Seriously, the only L98 to never make it into a thirdgen was the Aluminum-headed version the Corvettes got. The F-body L98's were identical except for a few small things (like plastic distributor covers, not aluminum live the 'Vette) and cast-iron heads.

You never had the LT1, LS1, LS6, LT4, or LT5 available in these vehicles. All of the talk about them in thirdgens are retrofit only. You had 305 and 350 TPI, 305 TBI, carbureted, and CFI(why?) among others.

I guess my Service Parts Identification (RPO list) sticker is some kind of a misprint than...... Oh wait, I guess ALL of my friends have screwed up Service Parts Identification stickers. There must have been some crazy guy swapping these stickers at the plant or something.........

Whatever.

You are wrong.

You won't see the LT5 designation on a factory 3rd gen or any other factory camaro that I know of. The LS1 didn't come with 3rd gens just the '98 and later 4th gens.

As stated above, L98 did come in the 3rd gen.

a 305 TPI is a LB9 a 350 TPI in Fbody's IS a L98 with the B2L option(which is the code for aluminum head delete) no LT series motor was in a thirdgen(LT1,LT4,LT5)
