1968 Camaro Z-28
The Z-28 option included a close-ratio 4-speed manual transmission, heavy-duty suspension, front-disc brakes, quick-ratio steering, and 15x6-inch Corvette Rallye wheels. Exterior features included a special hood with functional air-intake, trunk-lid spoiler, and dual stripes running across the hood and trunk lid. To keep the high-performance 302-cid engine's advertised power rating less than one horsepower per cubic-inch, the factory figure of 290-bhp was measured at 5300 rpm. Actual redline was 7500 rpm, with horsepower figures closer to 350-375. Z-28 Camaros dominated the SCCA Trans-Am circuit in 1968 and 1969.
