THe top "F" body at the time was the Pontiac Trans Am with the 4 Speed an the 400 c.i. Pontiac engine rated at 210 horsepower (if I remember correctly). (and there weren't too many of those built either). Let's hope that never happens again.

Does anyone else find it a little annoying when someone says fact after they make a statement. It reminds me of lawyers and muslims (basically intellectual wanna bes) Einstein never said e=mc2 fact. Sorry I didn't mean to pick on you, I just see too many people using the statement "fact" as defining whatever it is that they say.

There is no way the Z will come out at 3,000 pounds. As much as I WISH it would, it's not going to happen. Read some of Fbodfather's posts about weight and how hard it is to pass crash safety standards these days. Because of mandatory safety equipment, there is just no way. Fbodfather knows how important weight is and if he could have gotten the Camaro to come in at 3500 pounds, he would have. It was impossible.
If they could put a higher performance cam in the LS3 for the new Z, and find a way to drop it to 3700 pounds, get some nice suspension, and power up to 480 HP, it would compete with the GT500. |

How many threads is this guy going to create about the "Z28" that was never mentioned officially once? Talk about ridiculous. It's like watching the stages of grief after a death. Anger, Reckoning, Bargaining, Acceptance. He's on bargaining now. Trying to convince himself that there is another way to build his fantasy car. LOL HAHAAHHA
Dude, for your own sanity, here's your answer. Buy a damn SS when it comes out and shut up Convince yourself that you don't need to have more than 425 horses. Or if you do, bolt on a damn supercharger. |

^ Tell me about it.
OK, Stop bashing people for posting threads here. Trust me the Mods will review every one and if deemed inappropriate we edit, or delete. I agree there are plenty of Z28 or bust or get over it threads out there. The same can be said for weight, and LS3 vs L99, or turbos vs superchargers, or blue vs blue, or auto vs manual... Stop being so pissy with each other. If you don't like the thread topic, send a PM to a mod or leave the thread alone. Obviously we want you to argue and debate the topics. But, let the Mods determine what threads belong and which don't. This concludes your moderator public service announcement.

Can you say Clone
Well if we don't get a Z28 we can always go clone with aftermarket stuff, lol. Look how many 69Z28 clones are out there now.
