i agree with what u say but it is a street car. i drove it from West Covina to Huntington Beach where i work a numerous days.... yes it is broken or has a little war wound but someone with some mechnical skill can take out the engine... send it to get a 383 done for about $2000. assemble for under $500 gaskets and such things.... and bam 11 sec car for under $10,000.... yes i know it sounds easy but it is acheivable.... did u ever sell that Honda allblacksrt4????

It doesn't even run 11s and you're saying it eats up h/c LS1 cars AND it runs with a 467 rwhp vette? This isn't harassing a seller, it's calling BS on a liar. I understand that you have pride in your car, but unfortunately that doesn't translate into dollar value.

Yeah bud, I'm going to have to agree with everyone else. No a/c or heater, something wrong with the motor, an LT1 at that, and you want $6500? Good luck.

It's not hater posts, it's words of advice for someone trying to oversell a car.

Seriously, who would pay $6500 for a 1993 Camaro with engine problems?

I wouldn't. Not to hate or anything.

ha ha this is getting out of hand... so alright like i said this is a car with a lot of money into it already..... if u cant c it than this aint the car for u..... it is like that one car u want that u always dreamed about but it aint the right color. u are gonna repaint it right.... to your liking..... sooo. with that said i guess a new set up is now in the works for me..... looks like i put that Moser 9" afterall with a bigger Ci motor and will c how far into the 13's it can get since u r calling BS on me..... and cant get how 1/8th mile times work with shitty reaction times and and horrible 60' foot. oh yeah and in terms of giving my vette a run... yes i did beat the car but it hung well for being a dinosaur design motor with 23 degree heads/.... with a dinosaur ECM..... vs a car that was meant to be in the 12's from factory with out mods Vette/Z06..... look outside the box.... DAMN HATERZ....

I get how 1/8th mile times work....RT does not factor in, I sure wish it did I have a few .500 lights and dozens of .50X lights.

Yeah and a 7.9X ain't handing it to any H/C LS1, my lid muffler car went 7.72 with holes burnt in the sides of the pistons

i agree that reation times dont make a differenc but i wasnt launching the car.... i rolled it out.... ok depending on where u r in the US... most cars here with bolt ons run 7.9's.... in So. Cal. most H/C cars i c run will go at the fastest 7.6's and thats on a vette C5(what i have seen).... so if u run faster great. u have to understand most people take the LT1 as a slow car.... so when i end up winning aganist Ls1 cars they scratch their heads in ahh.... but yes LS cars are faster than the ancient LT1. Damn talk about a bitch session.....

With a modded evo, congrats. Saw a guy at irwindale going those times stock just upped the boost, don't think his motor was going to last long on 29 psi though.

See how far into the 13s you can get? That's still not 11s and that's STILL not beating H/C LSx cars. So where is the point you are trying to make? Unless I missed something. Correct me if I'm wrong, by all means. So yes, we are calling BS.

Dude just give up. You're NOT going to get $6500 for your car. It's a fact of life.

that was actually stock turbo on boost only.... my motor lasted at 35+psi from a 67mm for a while.

With the 67mm it ran slower but 10mph higher int he 1/8
