hello every one my name is richie, i live in hurley mississippi... im a new owner of a camaro... i just bought a 96 camaro i think it is a lt1 havent had time to pop the hood on it yet paid 800 for it from a shop he said it was a 350 in it so i figure lt1 ill know in a few weeks cus i just got done with surgery and cant wait to pick it up.. reason i got it so cheap is cus the motor has a few major problems witch i dont have a problem working on since i love to rip cars apart and fix them... i was just curious how much horse power does the lt1 stock automatic push???? im use to building fast 4 bangers i am now taking my step up to the v8s... here are some pictures of the new baby...

 

 

hm...lt1. i dont know for sure, but i think its 280hp. i could be wrong on that.

right after you get it running swap back to stock bumpers. that body kit is hideous and you wont get much respect on a camaro forum with a body kit like that. i know you didnt do that, and i hope you plan to dump that kit. lol

i would also paint the front corners black again. congrats on the car tho, looks like itll be a fun project.

 

well if its a 96 with a V8 it will be the LT1 rated at 285 horse and 325 torque more than a match for 99% of rice burners however the fact that you havent looked under the hood and the fact that it has no Z28 tagging makes me wonder if sombody didnt sell you a v6 and say it was the 8 but who knows

 

yeah.... that body kit is dusgusting, sorry. but its okay you have a white 96 Z28 like me so that means your like the 2nd most perfectly amazing person on this site haha... jk.
but yup good luck on fixing it. Oh and bignic look closer at the rear pic, it does have a z28 badge

 

so it does still concened cus its missign the side tags and hes never seen the engine and since im looking more closely at the pict of the rear i just noticed theres only a single outlet exaught.......

 

na nic i opened the hood for once today its lt1 and it has dual exhaust i just took quik pictures im so buisy with doctors n stupid stuff so i can go back to work havent had time to mess around ima start major work on like rippin motor out in feb but it is the z28 lt1 i would of been pissed if it was a v6... an 4 bangers can be fast if you know what your doing right now my cavalier is pushin 240 hp which is major gain then what it had 145 which i still craved more power so i figured sell the cavy by pieces and get me a v8 which easier to get the horse power gain and since im a chevy boy automaticly it was camaro lol and i know every one doesnt like the body kit but i kinda do so im ordering the front to it and gonna re paint the hole car with the same white and black theme and i just bought new rims for it while i drive it on the road which are 20s and im buying here shortly some slicks and smaller rims for the track since i love going to the drag strip. but i also want to enter car shows localy for fun so i figured a few looks wouldnt hurt...

 

I think your periods got bunched up a few times...they need to be distributed better.

Anyways, its your car you can do with it as you like. I personally feel that 20s are too big for an fbody. just dont change the tail lights and ill have respect for you still. lol

why are you ripping the motor out? what do you have planned for it?
