Serious inquiries only please. Some Information about 1987 IROC Z-28's I gathered this from an article titled "1987 Facts and Figures" ~ 1987 IROC-Z Key Points of Interest ~ To distinguish a 1987 IROC-Z on the street, they had a third brake light on the rear spoiler. They had the PE1 Aluminum Wheels. Also, the double stripe just above the ground effects had the black stripe on the bottom. The IROC-Z door emblems were towards the front of the door under the side mirror. A convertible was available in 1987 for the first time since 1969. The 220 HP 5.7 Liter 350ci engine was available in 1987 only with an automatic transmission. The 5.7L was not available in the convertible model Leather was available for the interior beginning in 1987 The 5.7 was not visually distinguishable from the 5.0. A few things can be used to distinguish a 5.7 TPI from a 5.0 TPI (other than badges, which are often changed to sell a 5.0 as a 5.7). All 5.7's came with the square shifter knob, all other Camaro's came with the round knob. All 5.7's had automatic transmissions and rear disc brakes. the eighth digit of the VIN is an 8 for 5.7 350 TPI. The service parts identification list in the center console glovebox will list the code B2L for a 5.7 350 or LB9 for 5.0 305. the under hood sticker should list the motor as a 5.7 liter rather than a 5.0 liter. All TPI 350's came with a tach that had yellow at 5000 and red at 5500. The 190 horsepower 305 was available with the 5-speed manual transmission or the automatic. You also could only get a 215 HP motor if you ordered a hardtop/five speed/ and G92 axle package. The reason for the 25 horsepower increase was the better cam, and it is essentially the same 305 that was available in 1985. In 1987, Chevrolet V8 motors switched to the Hydraulic Roller Camshafts as opposed to the Flat Tappet style used in 1986 and 1985. This caused an increase of 5 HP and a 3.5% increase in fuel economy. In 1987, the HEI ignition system was introduced replacing the unitized system of previous years. 1987 was the last year that a carburated engine could be had. Beginning in 1988, all models were fuel injected. Up to now all Camaro's were produced at either the Norwood, Ohio plant (the original Camaro plant)or the Van Nuys, California plant. 1987 was the last year for Camaro production at the Norwood, Ohio plant. Note: The 350 5.7L was available with the 5 speed manual transmission as RPO 1LE beginning late in 1986 and through the 1990 model year. Chevrolet has no record of just how many were made. They were essentially hidden from the public. They had the A/C delete, radio delete and no power options as well as the same options as the 1LE cars everyone knows about (no fog lights, baffled gas tank, larger brakes). The car could only be ordered and very few people new about it and therefore very few were made. The dealer actually had to contact the manufacturer to obtain instructions on how to order this car because it was not ordered using the normal ordering procedures. This ordering secrecy was the main reason that very few were made. The car was offered as a model that more closely resembled the cars raced under the IROC racing series. I personally have never seen one of these cars nor have I met anyone who owns one of these cars. This information comes from two published sources from my library of information on these cars. It is repeated here for your information. I would be very wary of someone claiming that they have a car that is a 1LE with a 5 speed. Anyone who does have one of these cars, knows what they have and has the documentation on it. If you don't see documentation, then it probably is not a 1LE 5 speed car. Top Speed = 143.0 mph (350 TPI) 0-60 time = 6.18 seconds (350 TPI) 1/4 time = 14.66 seconds @ 96.24 mph (350 TPI)
