i have pics of the fox, but no pics of the ss. the fox had a 347 fairly built making 400 hp and 400 tq to the tires. had tremec tko, 31 spline stuff in the rear, etc. wieghed only 2900 lbs.



camaro has a 9 inch rear, tunnel mount torque arm, control arms, relocation brackets, stock bottom end ls1 with arp rod bolts, torquer v2 cam, american racing 1 7/8 long tubes and magnaflow catback to name a few.
definitely totally different than any mustang but should be fun nonetheless.

that's exactly what all my friends and family think i have done, is gone to the dark side. lol. 4v cars are fun, especially with boost.

Dude! I am on here because my gf's 2000 TA. The general put the LS1 on this planet to torture me I'm sure of it... I don't work so well on them. Give me a fox to work on any day over this thing. I'm sure you will enjoy the camaro a lot. Good luck. Let us know when you drive the camaro in how the difference is. Have a good one!
