Camaro High Performance examined the car April 2009. Guess they forgot to mention that.

Never trust a Chevy with an incorrect (cheap) open element air cleaner lid...

Further proof that an L78 with docs is worth more by bolting on aluminum heads and throwing the L78 paperwork away.

Its also got the incorrect Chinese repop brake booster with the right side up Delco Moraine stamping.



NOR152758

BU1021G rear
T1017JJ engine,
X66D80 on the tag

Just some notes I have on the car. Nothing is verified.

Lots of repop parts from what I see

That booster is a sign to me to keep walking. You can find good ones or replate your original instead of having a red flag sticking out
