  • hello can anyone help me out? 2.8L tech

    Hello. My friend has just bought a 87 camaro t roof with a automatic 2.8L V6 in it. He is really proud of it [img]graemlins/love.gif[/img] , and since i am his only friend who is into muscle cars he asked to help him soup it up. unfortunatly, I have only heard of bad about these motors. :( . I am hoping some of you can disspell the myths and/or help me out with some tips on how to get him some horsepower. Any suggestions are welcome [img]smile.gif[/img]

    QUESTIONS:
    1. are their any air silencer like objects i can remove out of the air intake?

    2. Is it better for him to get true duel exhaust , or a bigger pipe from the manifolds back? are their headers out there for these motors?

    3. Can timing be advanced without side effects to the motor? Will he need a chip for that? what can it be advanced to?

    4. Are there any parts such as throttle bodys or something that I can take off a similar era gm vehical to improve performance?

    5. [img]graemlins/fluffy.gif[/img] <----what one earth is this? LOL

    thanks alot for all help and also if someone could tell me the horsepower, torque, quarter mile times, or any other figure these cars have that would be excellent.

    Psssssssst, there is a 3rd gen section.
    That would be where you would find most other 1987 camaro owners with 2.8's
    You might want to post this over there.
