Tuned Port Injection 350, 87-90 Iroc-Z's 91-92 Z28's.... Be Careful though Some of these came equipped with 305's and cosmetically they look the same in the engine bay, My personal advice... Look in the rear lock box in the trunk for the Identification codes if it says 'L98' or 'B2L' it signifies the Tuned Port Injected 350 option, (245 hp /345 torque)
I've had several guys try to sell me an Iroc Z claiming it's a 350 when really its a 305 tpi or
'LB9' = Tuned port 305 (Manual Trans w/ 3.42 gears gives it 230 hp/ 300 torque) Auto is 205 hp/ 285 torque

As for the Tuned Port, I don't think there were any 350's equipped with a Manual transmission but I could be wrong.

1990 Iroc -Z Tuned Port Injection 350









And A 1990 Iroc-Z Tuned Port 305






Cosmetically, Nearly Identical. If anyone else has any tips Please add..
My 86 had the 145-150 Mph speedo Which originally had a 350 in it, Maybe the 305 is just 125 mph?

a very limited amount of these cars came factory with the 5 speed. It was a special option that almost nobody got. people WILL agrue against that. but this is true.

99.9999999% of the 350's had an auto trans. So, if the seller is claiming 350 and its a 5 speed, beware and walk away.

my favorite camaros are the first gens, but theyre so damn expensive, where as you can get a third gen real reasonable. just the other day i saw a rebuilt 3rd gen on craigslist with a 383 for like 4 grand or somethin. and they're such a good lookin car, id reccomend a 3rd gen
