Id say that a 270hp RS has your precious IROC-Z covered.

Nobody corrected this so I had to. That B4C package used the EXACT SAME engine as the 91-92 Z28's. That Corvette aluminum head engine with siamesed intake was the planned 25th Anniversay model. It was scrapped when they were going to cost as much as a new Corvette. GM planned to make 602 of them, same as the number of 1967 Z28's.
