Thats a LT car so even if you had a v8 it wouldnt be a ls1. It would be a lt1 but like stated its just a regular v6 camaro. Not a ss or anything.

No. The v8s that came in the year car you have would have been a lt1. 98-02 model years had the ls1. Yours is a v6. Not lt or ls. Just a v6.

What you should be looking to do to it, is trade it in on an LS1 car. It'll probably get the same mileage and make six times the power

Yup nothing special bud. Just a plain ole v6. Time to step it up to a ls1. Like stated the price on them has come down. You can get a good running higher mileage ls car for 3-4K all day. Might have some cosmetic issues but a great platform to start with.

like we all said. all you have is a v6 camaro. nothing more (no ss or z28 or anything). that same year if it was a v8 it would have been a LT1 not a LS1.

how much did you end up paying for the car?

Not making fun of you man, your name says Camaro V6 95. So we are thinking that you knew that the Camaro that you have is a 1995 V6 Camaro hence the comments.

It is a 3.4 V6 (L32). My first Fbody was a 95 Firebird with the 3.4 V6 that I drove daily for 6 years and 100k miles. Durable little engine, just not fast by any means.
