Despite its massaged drivetrain the cars trim and ornamentation remain largely as the General specified. At the front of its body a monochromatic grille hangs manual headlights between a custom nose stripe Rally Sport parking lamps a prominent chin spoiler and a triple-plated bumper. At the top of that grille a chrome-trimmed Super Sport hood drives a small Camaro header emblem in front of tinted glass thats caged in polished frames capped wipers and manually operated canvas. At the sides of that hood ornate fender emblems complement tasteful door handles while a duo of bowtie mirrors reflects dent-free wheel lips and mirrored rocker guards. And at the back of the car a black Super Sport fuel filler and second triple-plated bumper split the difference between a prominent deck spoiler factory taillights and Rally Sport reverse lamps.</p><p>ENGINE</p><p>Check this Camaros glossy engine bay and youll find a mean GM Performance Parts Ram Jet 350 thats good for 350 horsepower and 400 lb./ft. of tire-twisting torque. At that top of that 2-bolt small block a polished and stamped air cleaner forces wind in to a custom-cowled color-keyed intake. At the back of that intake a reliable points distributor swirls fire around polished Chevrolet-branded valve covers with the help of pliable GM wires and body-matched looms. At the base of those covers Vortec heads and aluminum roller rockers combine with roller lifters a hydraulic roller cam an iron crank powdered connecting rods and hypereutectic pistons to create stout 9 to 1 compression. That compression exits through ceramic-coated long-tube headers. In front of those pipes a polished serpentine drive spins a polished alternator opposite a polished AC compressor. At the front of those ancillaries a polished cross-flow 4-core radiator floats corrugated hoses around a 16-inch Be Cool puller fan. And everything communicates thanks to Detroit Speed engine management. Aesthetically both the body-matched mill and its assortment of bright accessories seem right at home in front of a smoothed color-keyed firewall. And details like a polished brake booster braided fluid lines polished fluid reservoirs and bowtie caps and breathers
