The LT1 Camaro doesn’t get as much respect as the more powerful LS1 models, but the LT1 engine featured in this week’s Drag Race video has been modified to make monster power.
What happens when you take a Chevrolet Camaro that was once powered by a LT1 engine, and replace it with a 6.0L LS1 with a turbocharger? You end up with a car than can run a less than 10 second quarter-mile, that’s what.
Chevrolet asked five of the people responsible for styling within GM who own (or have owned) Camaros to give their opinions on what made each of the five generations of the Mustang-fighter distinctive and attractive.
It doesn’t matter what kind of car, how old, or what make it is. You can always bet that someone, somewhere has taken it upon themselves to swap in a Chevy V8.
“Turn that music down!” That’s a go-to phrase for a stereotypical, crotchety old man. He usually shouts it at a young “punk” who’s blaring rock music out of his stereo’s speakers.
