so i recently found out after buying my 83 camaro that it is a 4 cylinder not a6. i have a few questions. 1 - how rare is this and if its rare how much money is it worth if any? 2 - since its only a 2.5L L4 with a 3-speed automatic tranny, what would be better to do - add performace parts to the existing engine or just get a v8?
o and money is a factor here
thanks

 

LOL
Sorry but you dont have a collectors car there. It aint worth ****. You want more power, add more motor.

 

ya it has no power at all
its very embarrasing to be sitting at a light next to an SUV cuz they expect my car to have a lot of power so they want to race but when i do i get pwned.
4 cylinders suck
0 - 60 in about 2 minutes

 

Does it have the one small tailpipe ? That is a dead give away.

 

If its cheap....and you have the funds, buy it and swap in a 350 or 400sbc....if not, leave it alone and look for a v8 car.

 

His post said he found out AFTER buying.[&o]Hope it was cheap.

 

ya it was cheap - only 500 bucks and everything is working great just is slow as hell

 

ain't nothing wrong with a $500 running camaro

 

Does it at least look good? Sometimes its just better to look good than feel good.

 

true, i would sacrafice SOME of the power my car has to have a good looking one. The paint, to say the least, has seen better days. And i noticed today that rust is starting to form at the t-tops. But no major dents or scratches, Just small rock chips and common parking lot dings here and there. Oh, and one on the drivers side fender where i got mad at it and punched it... hurt like hell, dented the car, and didnt solve anything... stupid me.
