2002 Camaro SS, regular maintainence and fluid suggestions?
Proud owner of a new used 2002 Camaro SS with 90k miles.
Factory options include:
>>Functional hoodscoop
>>Hurst short-throw shifter
>>Traction control w/ dash switch
Aftermarket mods include:
>>SLP Lid
>>Polished/ported throttle body
>>Kooks longtube headers
>>Offroad Y pipe
>>Cutout in Y with bolt on cap
Unfortunately, the seller was not the one who did the mods or maintained it. The engine is the cleanest ive seen on a 90k LS1, but I have no clue what oil or other fluids he used.
I dont know when (or if) the sparkplugs have been changed.
The owners manual just reccomends regular tire rotations and oil changes, with new sparkplugs at 100k and a fluid flush at 150k.
What should I do as far as regular maintainence to insure engine life and efficiency?
Once the car is for sure running at 100%, what mods or upgrades would you suggest next?
Short of cams/heads or forced induction, all that seems left are little things like underdrive pulleys.

You can look at this thread for scheduled maintenance.

I would change plugs and all the fluids personally. Start with new stuff completely and not worry anymore. These cars are aging in years with not a lot of miles so look at it that way
