First let me say, I apologize if this thread is posted in the wrong section of the forum, I was unsure.
I'm curious, since everyone on here knows 100x more than me on camaro's, I want everyone and anyone to share their opinion. My friend and I have had an on going disagreement about my car, I have a 1995 camaro with a 5.7L lt1 motor swap, I have the 460le 4 speed automatic transmission, and the 12 bolt rear end (or maybe the 10 bolt, which ever isn't the better one in an upgrade sense, which I think is the 12?) and all I have done to the car is upgrade the tranny mount, and motor mounts, and when I bought the car it had a moroso CAI, and flow master exhaust, and I believe a performance torque arm. I bought the car for $3500 over a year ago and when I bought it I think there were mods listed but I can't be sure or verify so I tell everyone it is bone stock, as far as I know it runs on all stock v6 components, except the absolute necessities for the v8 to work of course, and I have taken it to my local track and the fastest time I got was 13.584 in the quarter mile on basic tires, I know stock z28 from factory run 14 flat with a professional driver, however I don't know if that's track or street. Since I tell people it's stock it has 275hp/325ft lb torque. However my friend is very set on the fact that it has about 400+hp. I went to a local car meet recently and a "mechanic at Nissan" said at 13.5 quarter, you're probably running 400-450 (i assumed he meant to the crank) and since some of the brightest guys on camaros are on this forum I felt I could use your help and pick your brains a little. I don't know much on these cars yet and wanted some unofficially professional opinions.
Thanks in advance for everyone's input!!
