Performance Difference

**ccusum** · 03-14-2006, 09:51 AM

I don't know if this has been posted before, sorry.

Between all the LS1 year Camaros. Is there a performance difference between a Z/28 and an SS?

Would a 98 SS be faster then a 02 Z/28? vice versa?

BTW this question is for factory stock camaros.

this has been covered 600 billion times. performance is all about the driver...that being said..the 01 and 02 ls1s have the ls6 intake giving them a lil more power...but on the flip side...a guy took a 98 z28 or 22 to a 12.9 at the track in cold weather..and then the same guy took a 01 ss to a 12.9 in hotter weather.

Hey, a 2002 Z28 with low mileage would be much preferable than a 1998 Z with high mileage. The more scrutinization you use on purchasing low miles and a higher year, the longer you'll have the car than the guy who bought the same car for less. I spent $11995 on my 00 Z w/ 46K miles. I really wanted a 30th anniversary or a LT1 indy edition, but it wouldve cost me the same money with 40K+ and 3+ years. The way I see it...3 more years with the car.
