I'd say Lingenfelter is the closest modern equivalent we have, but it isn't exclusively Camaro or even GM I think, not like Saleen is to the Mustang. Back in the 60s the closest equivalent would be Yenko or Baldwin. COPO wasn't a tuner source, it was just the GM division for extra custom orders, not necessarily performance tuning. All they did was drop in a new engine per request.
