B4C is Chevrolet's Special Equipment Options (SEO) code for a "Special Service" police package Camaro. The B4C package has heavier-duty (HD) features over a non-police vehicle as well as some options specific to the installation of police equipment. The Chevrolet Camaro B4C option has been available since 1991 when it was introduced. Some other Chevrolet vehicle models are designated by another SEO code, known as 9C1 for the Caprice, Tahoe, and Nova Police vehicles.

HD features include oversized front and rear sway bars; high-output alternator; larger (in years after 1991) four-wheel disc brakes; separate engine, power steering and transmission oil coolers; certified 145 MPH speedometer. Most of the heavier duty option parts come from a combination of parts from both the regular Z28 and the racing and handling package of the special 1LE option list.



to answer the question.... yes tuning "should" cure the issue however if its a hard part problem then its something internal. is it not going into 2nd under WOT or standard driving?

ok did think about it being a production code the way the question was presented.
And correct tuning could correct it if its not a mechanical issue.

A B4C is basically a V6 car with a V8 drivetrain and suspension, nothing more.
I have the cars in my signature and a 2002 B4C. The Z28 and B4C share the same suspension RPO codes, same alternator, same power steering cooler, etc, etc, etc.
