Re: 85 Camaro Z28 Black
You can call BS all you want. The car is what it is, the motor works been done and the numbers are what they are. I dont really do carbed vehicles. "The Guy" used to do nothing but build sprint track motors. So don't believe me. That's fine. Dont buy the car. Doesn't bother me.

Re: 85 Camaro Z28 Black
Bought the car from someone else yes. He lied about what had been done. Timing chain ended up jumping 3 teeth off. We pulled the motor out and found out the crankshaft was scarred, the camshaft was toasted, the block was a small journal 327 bored .60 over. The heads are 400ci. So we went with a 350 block, kept the 400ci heads, got a new Comp Cam, I believe 480 lift, a machined crankshaft, new rods, bearings, and pistons, new valves, springs and retainers, machine head work, and still has all the other stuff I installed before the chain jumped. Such as 750 4 barrel carb, full msd conversion, dominator intake mani which is now ported n polished, and b&m rachet shifter. The tranny was screwy before. Was a 700r4 with a shift kit. Didn't shift right for me so I opted to do the turbo350 swap. Turbo 350 has jus been rebuilt, has a heavy duty sprag, b&m shift kit, and a 3200stall convertor. Only reason I'm selling this car is because I have a new project to work on so I just would like to sell it. No other reason. I do like the car, I just like my project better.

You, my friend, are correct.
OP: We aren't trying to bash you, just trying to help. People will see this and look at the unrealistic HP numbers posted from an iron headed, cammed 350 and never think twice about this. Maybe you should finish the car and dyno it before you make claims about the HP....

Re: 85 Camaro Z28 Black
Y y'all keep calling me OP. and I'm Jus going by what my engine builder says. He's built enough of them and they all pretty much come out the same way. I mean I know every motor is different. But he's pretty consistant. I Jus threw the car on here to get it out. I wasn't posting it on CL or anywhere else till it was done. And when I do have it done. I may post Dyno sheets. Dont really feel like wasting anymore money on it. Need it for the other car. Got some work ahead of me.
