While metric conversions were properly performed by assuming that the engine displacements were exactly 5.7 liters, this was not the case. The displacements were marketed as "350 cubic inch" small block Chevy engines. With a bore of 4" and a stroke of 3.48", the displacement was really 349.85 cubic
449:
Are there any good sources out there for actual beginning and end years, and possibly photographs, of all of the different wheel styles they used? There were quite a few and some are similar 'enough' in verbal description that photos would probably help. I'd try to contribute some but we don't have

This article plays off the 1998+ Camaros to be more aerodynamic but this is the complete lie. Just the fact that someone thought the redesigned headlamps makes the 1998+ Camaro more aerodynamic makes me laugh at how little the common person knows about the world around them even though it is ruled by
661:
Need details on this engine used as referred to by the 1995 section stating that would be the last year for the 3.4L engine. From what I've gathered the v6 engine used in 1996 was a 3.8L V6 not sure of series or displacement, things I would presume others might like to know and would contribute to
598:
SS models were available with some factory-installed performance upgrades by SLP. With all of the option boxes checked, the horsepower rating jumped to 345 in 2002 (and presumably 340 in '98-00 models, although I've not seen that spec before). Truthfully, those options brought horsepower levels
581:
I think the power output stated for LS1 V8 engines is incomplete, and for the '01 and '02 model years, incorrect. For one, I'm quite certain that the correct rating for an '01 or '02 Z28 is 310hp and 340 lb-ft of torque. I can produce any of a dozen different magazines as sources to prove it;
765:
The 4th gen's upper and lower A-arm with coil-over setup in the front is just flat out superior to the MacPherson strut fronts of the 3rd gen. The 4th gen's rack& pinion steering mechanism is much quicker to respond to driver's inputs than the 3rd gen's pitman arm/drag link setup.
692:"stub-class" article be merged into this Chevrolet Camaro (fourth generation) article. Per WP Automobile Project conventions, the separate article that covers only the fourth-generation Camaro police package option should be part of this specific "generation" article. 561:
The displacement isnt totally accurate for the first v6. it is typically rounded to 3.4l, it even says 3.4 on the intake manifold. in cubic inches its 204, though commonly known as 207. 3.4l is much more used than the ci measurements however.
620:
The photograph of the white 2000 Camaro should be replaced. It displays the LT1 style tail lights which would not have been found on a car of that year from the factory. Not to mention, the photos are a ridiculously low resolution.
153: 594:
All of the above are underrated, presumably to keep the Camaro from outshining its like-engined sibling (the Corvette) at half the price. True power output is in the 345-350hp range, regardless of whether it's a Z28 or an SS.
583: 147: 591:
The change in 2001 was caused by the inclusion of the intake manifold from the LS6 (used in the Corvette Z06, which came out the same year) in combination with a milder camshaft profile.
525:
That's a good point - is there an auto template that starts at cubic inches and works backwards? Neither the LT1 or LS1 were exactly 5.7L - the LT1 is 350 cubes and the LS1 is 346.
44: 771: 466:
200?-2002 'Split spoke' - usually on the V6 from what I've seen. Five spokes at the hub, each of which splits to two spokes so it's 10 spokes at the rim of the wheel.
673: 632: 431: 588:
To be specific, the ratings are as follows: '98-00 Z28: 305 hp, 335 lb-ft '01-02 Z28: 310 hp, 340 lb-ft '98-00 SS: 320 hp, 340 lb-ft '01-02 SS: 325 hp, 345 lb-ft
567: 775: 463:
1996-? ZR1-style. I know there are plenty of 16" versions around but I don't know that GM ever put those on Camaros, I think the only factory ones were 17".

The 10-spoke wheels were SS only, all four years. 35th anniversary SS models (2002) came with a version where the spokes were blacked out.

To get the rights to post those pictures here, you could contact him personally. He is "Brangeta" on the CamaroZ28.com message board.

Agree, but FYI it's misleading to call the older tail light style "LT1", since it changed for model year 1997, not 1998.
628: 481:
The "split spoke" wheels you mentioned are known as "snowflakes" in the Camaro community, and came on '01-02 Z28 models.
427: 460:
1993-? Salad shooters. I could've sworn they dropped those after 1995 but the article shows a "1996" with the shooters.
563: 30: 361: 266: 227: 799: 99: 457:
1993-? Base V6 steelies with the hideous hubcaps that were a few slices short of being a solid grey plastic disc
141: 744:
Proper reference to the relevance of the name Boisbriand are on the plant's page under Current Re-development.
411: 104: 20: 715:
Production was moved from GM's Van Nuys, California assembly plant to Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec, Canada in 1993.

200?-2002 10-spoke - V8 only, a proper 10-spoke with 10 straight spokes from the hub to the rim.

The Boisbriand plant, the only GM plant in Canada outside of Ontario, then closed down.

There are lots of pictures on Brandon Brown's "4th generation Camaro history" website:
