1995 Z28 turbo, 9.9@146, 65k miles, $12k

I'm looking to switch to boats, so my turbo Camaro is up for sale. Here are the spec's:

Chassis
1995 Z28, ~65,000 miles, always covered, black, t-tops, tan leather
roll bar (not cage) with pin-out door bars
5 point harness included, but swaps to stock belts with 2 bolts
All stock interior, gauges, accessories, cruise, a/c, etc...
KB DD sfc's
Tubular trailing links
Have a set of 17" ZR1 wheels and 15" ProStars

Long block
8.5/1, 388 cid, Eagle 4340 crank, Eagle 4340 rods (ARP2000 bolts), Ross pistons
AFR 210 Race Ready heads
Comp Pro Magnum 1.6/1.52 rockers
Comp 224/236-114 cam, .605/.593 lift
LT4 intake, runner roofs raised .1", bored to 58 mm
58 mm TB

Turbo setup
Single T76GTS, .96 turbo
Home-built piping using 1 3/4" primaries, 2.5" crossover, 3" log, 3" downpipe, and 3.5" exhaust using a Magnaflow muffler
Tial 40 mm wastegate
Tial BOV
Custom large Bell water/air intercooler, water tank in trunk
3" cold-side piping
Turbo and piping leave all stock accessories in their stock locations, even the cooling fans.

ECU and fueling
Stock ECU, running a 2 bar SD tune in Open loop
84 lb/hr injectors
Acceleronics impedence converter
Dual 255 lph pumps, one on a boost pressure switch
Alkycontrol dual nozzle Methanol setup, but it's tuned to run without it

Drivetrain
Precision 10.5" converter, stalls to about 4500 at full boost
TH350 with a billet sprag
Ford 9" rear with 3.00 gears and limited slip, Moser housing and axles

Performance
I only got one pass at the track before they kicked me out, which was a 9.92 at 146 mph, on a 1.7x 60'. The car ran 143 mph consistently. This was at 17 psi boost and full weight. The turbo is capable of around 22 psi, but it's not tuned to run there. It dyno'd 700 rwhp, which is low for the mph run due to the non-lockup auto.

Will consider trades for a ~25' speedboat, similar to a Baja.

Mike

Damn it's sad to see that thing go. I wish I could take it off your hands.

For anyone interested this is an extremely nice and well built car.

Mike, sorry to see it go, but atleast you are doing it out of your own free will. Hopefully you continue to be on the board as you always provide useful info. Goodluck.

Even with the hood open. One time, I just beat another f-body really bad in a race. He started asking if I had a supercharger, so I didn't say a word and popped the hood. Him and his buddies investigated and concluded, "nope, no supercharger here!". The turbo and intercooler are hidden.

I was hoping for something in the 23'-26' range, but we can talk. I'll PM you my e-mail address.
