Really leaning towards a 5.7 auto.

The most fun would be the LB9 305 5 speed G80/G92. The G92 will include the "1LE" rear brakes and positraction, but then ALL 1989 & up f bodies with 4wdb got the larger rear brakes in 1989. They did make a few 1990 IROC's, but it was a very short production model as they introduced the 1991 model style very early. The 1990 got the air bag steering wheel, certainly the rarest IROC made.

That is good info. I really like the bodystyle and Iroc attitude. I actually attended an Iroc Race back around 1987 at Nazareth Speedway, Pennsylvania. What a time

Not all IROC's were built the same, and unless you check the RPO codes, an LB9/Auto can easily be disguised as a L98 one - but they are vastly different animals. The LB9 in auto form was neutered with the smaller cam while the LB9 coupled with the 5spd (MK6 World Class T5 in 88 & up) got the same cam as the 350. The only exception here is the 85 models that got the Corvette L98 Cam in the LB9 and was only available in auto form. Those are great cars to own as they are responsive in auto form. Don't buy an 86 at all, it was the low point of the bunch with the awkward high mounted stop light & the smaller cam, no 5spd & no 5.7. 1990 is the shortest production year ever for the Camaro & Firebird starting in the summer of 1989 and ending on December 31, 1989 - there were NO 1990 Camaros or Firebirds built in 1990. 1991 model year started on January 1st, 1990 and ended in the summer of 1991.

my brain fade, G92 is correct, any 89-90 IROC with G92 / N10 is the one to have, all others are "cruisers"

Because of the mid year phase in of the N10 exhaust, the early 89 F body cars (C & P) with G92 didn't get the N10. however all Pontiac Formulas/Trans Ams DID get G92 with the 5.7 after the intro date, not true with the Camaros FYI, ANY LB9 G92 5-speed will be the "good" one Co-drove at many, many SCCA events with one of the "father's" of the 1LE, used to know part numbers upside down, time is a cruel thing ... :-)
