where to begin....
First has to have had a motor swap. No Camaro came with a 502 biggest was a 427. That was during the 60's. IF its an 87-92 in that Iroc-Z body style it can only have a 350 as its biggest. Lingenfelter made a play toy in that body and it was a 350 punched out to a 383. Do a lil more research bout the car man sounds sketchy. It definately ain't the factory equipped motor. In that case,... God knows what could be done to that motor. If its really a 502 one of two things its been rebuilt or it runs like crap. Motor nutorious for fouling plugs and having compression and gasket problems as age wears in.

Camaro's never came from the factory with a 427.That was a special order motor,through Yenko,COPO,Baldwin Chevorlet,Nicky Chevorlet, ect.... The biggest motor that came in a camaro from the factory was a 396.The 502 crate motor is only about 10 years old.And has low enough comp. to run on pump gas!! The 78 z28 was a pretty cool car,had a 350 4 barrel,but only had about 180--190HP.

Whats been done to it??, I think I remember an old car craft where they put some bolt ons ( ported gm performance heads, don't remember what kind, cam, intake, carb, full exhaust, ) to compare to a 302 ford. the 305 made around 260flywheel hp. I don't think the mag was to impressed.
