SOLD: 2014 Camaro Z/28 Red A/C&Stereo

SOLD to a person from Alabama, new owner of Red Z/28 #402


Everyone,

I'm at that time where I'm strongly debating (and 70% of me convinced to) sell the Z/28. Why? Partly because I just don't get to drive it anymore and partly because I purchased a cheaper toy that I am more like to actually take the track like I had intended for this.

Please excuse the water spots/drops in the pictures, I was in a rush to get photos before I had to head to an appointment and didn't dry the car thoroughly after washing.

So the major details,

2014 AC and Stereo.
14425 miles (will go up but its not a daily driver).
Everything is stock unless mentioned.

Red Shiftknob, still have stock unit.
Exhaust flap controller switch which can be removed in <5 minutes
ARH 1 7/8 headers, car comes with stock manifolds as well.
Cammotion Cam. Also includes stock cam.
BTR Valve Springs w/ Titanium Retainers
Morel Lifters
Hardened (and shorter Pushrods), 0.135" side wall, running 0.063" preload (Morel recommends .060-0.075)
Powerbond SFI rated Balancer (stock unit was de-laminating)
ARP fasteners (head bolts, cam bolts, crank bolt)
TR7IX spark plugs

Head/Valve work done by AHP with MS90 Valve Guides, Ferrea exhaust valves, valve job, milled 0.030 for compression, tuned on 93.

GMax RS Tires ~2000 miles or so

Car is available for PPIs, dyno tests, etc. Let me know.

I've been watching yours on fb marketplace since before you started posting elsewhere. I considered yours, strongly...if I wasn't set on getting stock, you would've gotten a call from me. Hell, you still might.

No problem.

I would say that it could be taken back to stockish. Due to the milled heads, you'd need atleast SOME cam in it to keep the dynamic compression down but I think there are a ton of sleeper/stealth cams that would keep it more than happy.

That, swap out the headers (sell them on here), I'd keep the shift knob I put on there but if you want stock I still have it... and voila... stock (ish).

But I get your goal, friend.


Let me know if you have any questions I can answer or any thoughts worth kicking around.

If what I have in mind falls through (but its looking really solid at this point), then I'll hit you up. Doubt you'll have it still by then though since you're giving a good deal on it.

You never know. I am really interested in keeping it, worked hard on it and it runs great.....

BUT..... I like money too, so I'm torn.



Just let me know, friend.

Updated some details (mainly some upgraded/aftermarket parts using re-build of top end).

Car sounds good. Who tuned it and do you have any dyno numbers?

No thank you. If I sell it, its mainly to either go after a new experience or to open a hole in the garage.

Thank you.

SpartanLSX tuned the car (they seem to do a fair number of LS7's in the area), they did the tune after the head/header/cam install, and recommended that I change to the colder plugs (which I had in my mind to do already) and then spiffied up the tune after I put the new plugs in (he said they got a few more degrees of timing without tickling the KR)


No dyno numbers but similar setups without the milled heads do 550-560 wheel, so I'd guess another 10-15 with the milled heads.


If you are interested and want a dyno as part of a PPI, I will make the car available to any accredited/capable shop.
