Lingenfelter's Chevy Camaro Z/28 Doesn't Need Forced Induction To Make 660 HP | Carscoops carscoops
has been out of production for quite a few years now but it still remains one of the most focused and driver-oriented Camaro models built in recent decades. For owners looking for a little extra performance, Lingenfelter has come to the party.Z/28 was always its engine. Whereas most other high-performance Camaros launched since have relied on forced induction to achieve monumental levels of power, the Z/28 has a 7.0-liter naturally-aspirated V8 that was co-developed with Corvette Racing.
Lingenfelter’s upgrades start with the heads being CNC ported and polished while the compression ratio has been changed to 11.5:1. The engine is also rocking new dual valve springs with titanium retainers and valve locks. The tuner has also gone to the trouble of porting and polishing the throttle body and slotted in larger fuel injectors. There are also new head gaskets and bolts, a 160-degree thermostat, and long tube headers from American Racing.
The result is a cool 660 hp. Lingenfelter notes that the alterations mean the car has a more aggressive idle and isn’t as well suited to everyday driving as the standard car. Fortunately, Camaro Z/28 owners who can’t handle the change in driving dynamics are able to opt for a 630 hp package that is easier to use on the street.
