1993-2002 Camaro Question
« on: March 18 2012, 11:26:28 AM »
The girlfriend is currently in the market for a 1993-2002 LT1/LS1 6 speed powered Camaro. My question is this. How much abuse can the 6 speed transmission and differential take if the engine is left in its stock configuration?
Hard work pays off, dreams come true. Bad times don't last, but BAD GUYS do!

RIP Scott Hall AKA Razor Ramon

My dad's 1995 LT1 6-speed has 150,000 miles on it - original clutch, no drive train problems.  Optispark on the  LT1 is a POS.  I would try and get a LS1 if possible.

LS1....put some sticky tires on it and the clutch/tranny/rear end might object with 5000 rpm slide the foot off the clutch launches, but otherwise it should be fine

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.
