Lol I think we should have a "camaro" spell checker on the forums.
Anyways, I use Mobil 1 synthetic every time. And my personal preference for exhaust, I would get SLP Loudmouth 2, but that is because I like a loud, but also good sounding car. Others are more into tone and throaty. For that, I would probably get Flowmaster or something along those lines. Welcome to the forums by the way!

Roach was playing around, "Camero" is another common spelling error.
I like Pennzoil Synthetic oil or AMS, but everyone has their own opinions and it reallt won't matter much; just make sure you run the correct weight, 5w-30.
Start with a catback exhaust; we can't tell you what is best as what sounds good is all opnion. HP gains between catbacks will be similar. Step it up to longtube headers, ORY and a tune and you should be close to 400hp. I'd recommend the BBK ceramics for longtubes; Pacesetter's quality will always be subpar in my mind and fitment issues are quite common with them.

10W30 is fine if you don't live in Alaska and he's probably gaining 100HP with those mods in addition to a flash + reprogram. I like to refer to them as "idiot mods" because I see their cars end up on Craigslist with a knock 3 days later.

OBD1 LT1 is 275hp to the crank and OBD2 is 285hp to the crank. To the wheels stock they're probably around 230-240hp. To the crank, you could MAYBE get to like 360-370hp with those mods, but if you have to tune it where it's running on 93 with octane boost and then timing is probably REALLY advanced, air/fuel mixture, etc. It won't last long if you tuned a stock motor to that extent.

But you got more of Chaotic than me because he asked about the LT1 so my answer was for LT1 so I'm good
