it was just nice to see an actual video during the day, and not a night video where all you can see are headlights

round filter: TBI or carb
not CA legal if carb
doest not make sense to TBI a 383

so the RS badges, round filter on top and the guy said his car was CA legal= 305 TBI

circa hp=170@4000 and tq=255@2400 for the 1992 tbi rs

so it was a given

kinda funny that i had a similar guy go to my old job with an rs
he would come in asking for "high performance parts" oil filter and plugs for his 383 3rd gen camaro. he knew i drove a blue iroc. he didnt know what a ls1 was & he didnt believe i had a six speed. so i asked him what cam was he using .. he had no idea what he had in there

i kinda wish you lived closer to S.D so this idiot can see what a well built 3rd gen looks like. i told the dude to get a ls motor on there and he laughed...lol! well not after the race. I'd like to get a run with you some time if you're down for a friendly race. i've seen some nice vids that you posted a while back.

Well, care to share some light on what he has under the hood? We have all been trying to guess. So what does he actually have?

He's not saying that the white thirdgen in the vid is owned by his brother, he's saying the cyber grey '83 with the ls1 is owned by his brother.

Thanks man, yeah I live in Costa Mesa. I love SOM and looking fwd to a vid with you and TPI Terror. Should be close!!!

Will definitely make it to the Irvine meet. Are those Bimmer guys showing up also? One of their organizers had the nerve to talk **** last year as we drove by calling our cars cheap!!! We turned around and confronted him and he withdrew his comments, was studdering. and insinuating we crashed THEIR meet?
