Much less expensive in the long run to sell Your V6 and buy a V8 Car.

I have an 89 camaro that had a 2.8 v-6 and I put a 350 in it. I be completely honest with you its not worth it. You will have to change everything its just alot of money that you could just buy a v-8 car but if you have any questions I can answer them.

Is there a difference in a rs and a non rs? Or what does rs mean?

RS is Rally Sport. Not sure what the trimline involves on that year, but there's not too much difference, maybe a couple of cosmetic options or something.

here's the differance!~

Q: What does "RS" stand for?

A: "RS" denotes "Rally Sport" and was a slightly cheaper model than the Z28 Camaro, but an option upgrade from the base model Camaro. The RS could be had with a number of options, including V8 power, and power windows, brakes, upgraded sound system, etc. The RS package always included ground effects and a rear decklid spoiler. The RS option was first availible in 1987 and was present until 1992. From 1990 to 1992, the RS option was the lowest availible option as the base model Camaro was not produced.
