Let me make sure I am reading this right. Someone is stating fact that there will be a Z28 with an LSA?

 

I read it that way, too. And I don't believe it will be that way, if the Z/28 happens at all.

 

I don't claim to know one way or another, but I have to respectfully disagree that anyone knows what engine a car named Z28 would have outside of the core Camaro team.

 

yeah, thats what he told me. i dont believe a word of it. but he said he knows for a fact that it will be a lsa. ill find the post.

 

ok, he deleted the original post, but heres the link. i quoted what he said. http://www.moderncamaro.com/forum/sh...=28817&page=16

Here's where he said it originally(post 128)...but looking under his name it shows him as a "BANNED Moderator"?

 

That's weird. I dunno what the deal with that is. You never know...some sites throw anything out there pretending it is fact just to get traffic, and the second half of the problem is that people take it as gospel and repeat it elsewhere and then look silly for buying into it.

 

hes always had banned under there. and now he is a moderator. hes not really banned.

 

i sure hope hes wrong. the z28 should not be supercharged. they need to watch ford with the boss and take notes. that car got it right.

 

What if it has a supercharged V6?

 

Unfortunately that seems to be Chevy's attitude on the Camaro, wait and see what Ford does then build a car to compete with it in 3 years. Why can't the Z28 be supercharged? Why does a car built today have to copy the formula from 40 years ago? I did see an awesome 1st gen Z/28 2 weekends ago up near Greer SC that had brand new tags on it from NC, it was black and sounded meaner than anything I have ever heard in all of my years. The guy in front of him and me behind him both gave him thumbs up, it was wicked, deep and powerful sounding. He gunned it a few times and it didn't look to be stock by the rapid rate of acceleration.

 

Just read a post on another site with an IM quote from a "high up" at GM stating that GM is "still working on something" and "I know u no likey ZL1 for a name, but remember what Z28 stood for....homologated 302 high rev SCCA trans am series track car. so step back and think what could happen here…" to be exact. I don't wanna fuel the fire, but would love to see the name return to battle the 302 Boss. Let's give credit to Ford for keeping the bowtie boys honest. It's a great car...if you can get your hads on one for a reasonable price.

 

It might have been back during the first gen but that's not what the Z28 was during the 3rd and 4th gen. Why suddenly do we have to go back to what it was during the 1st gen, not many people are gonna buy one outside the die hard racers on here.

 

nah. i think n/a v8. it only seems right.

 

history repeats itself. chevy followed ford when the mustang came out. theres nothing wrong with bringing a car out after your competator. ford is making the right cars. chevy needs to follow. they do what they need to be ahead of ford. but there nothing wrong with making a car compete against ford. in the end, chevy makes the car that ford tried to make, but better.
