I like it, but I like the look of the firebird body better. But I do need some of those rims for my ride.

I'm looking to get a 6 cyl camaro and droping in a 396 or a 383 in it. It'd be a 94 though, I like the look of the LT1 headlights better. Am I weird for that?

Never did care for black rims on a red car.

Not a bad looking SS though.
One thing....LS6 heads, but stock cam??

I would like to know how you are puhsing 400 hp (in your profile) with those mods.
Re: F-body guys what do you think

I am 100% sure it isn't 400 rear wheel horsepower.
Shouldn't be making 400 crank power either. Probably right around 360 crank power.

i think you need to bring that beast to an LMG meeting so i can see the new wheels up close. we've decided to keep meetin in spite of the cold, we're usually at the BK on teal around 8 if you wanna stop by, and weather permitting, bring the SS

I like the photoshopped stance... looks good.

Who cares if it's not 400 HP? It's very close to that, and that would make me happy.

(no crome) Z06 rims----->
And yes they would look great on the Camaro.
Now could you get them with just the Chevy bowtie?

Not ripping the car, just thinking you are estimating high.

It took me damn near all the bolt-ons and a cam to get to 376.8 RWHP.

I would bet yours is more like 335 RWHP. Which is still nothing to scoff at.
