Anybody see this show last night? Built a camaro but they keep reporting that the 5th gen comes with a 427! That's in the SS

1LEJNG · 10-29-2016, 09:14 AM

I caught that. They even had two SS Camaros with 427s.......The white one and the red one.

I saw it. Kind of silly, not very well done.

Viper54 · 10-29-2016, 09:31 AM

that show was a epic fail, they did not know sh!t, decals and badging were trash

JLSuperfly · 10-29-2016, 12:10 PM

I saw bits and pieces of it. What is with the 427?

The main dude said the SS comes with a 427 with 426 hp

I thought they did a crappy job on the car.

Iburyyou · 10-29-2016, 10:45 PM

They also called it a big block. Added a pro charger and said 660hp with street fuel and 900 hp with race fuel and tune. That's a heck of a tune.

DRKS1D3 · 10-31-2016, 06:00 AM

Yep! They said it had a 427 big block approximately 3-4 times. I was just shaking my head in disbelief. They did an extraordinary job on the Camaro research.

Did you also notice they placed 427 decals on the fender when the car was finished? LOL! I'm wondering if any of the folks from that Camaro Club called him out.

That show is a joke - I turned it off soon as I heard them say 427 big block the second time.

And then the guy talks about the "rare" 1969 396 Camaro pace car that is really rare because not only is it a Pace Car convertible but is a Z28 and RS!!!! I had to rewind to verify I heard right, and yep, he said Z28!! The Z28 only had the 302 AND coupes, NO convertibles.

Horrible POSER 2010 fake 427! He even states "it's a 6.2 liter 427!! Hahaa, like didn't even say 7 liter. Epic fail.

Oh, and the craptastic home made body kit they GLUED ON!! You could tell his mold for the front was off before he sent it out then he blames the fiberglass shop!

Bad all around.

This is hilarious! My dad was watching this show Saturday night. He kept telling me my car had a 427 in it, and as I was doing research I saw it was clearly a 376. 427 being a stroker kit/the LS7. Just told him today and he was mind boggled

sending him the link to this thread as we speak..
