Professionally Built LT1 Performance Package
This Camaro separates itself from the typical modified SS through the quality and documentation of its powertrain build. An LSXperts invoice totaling approximately $16,627 documents a comprehensive Gen V LT1 performance program incorporating internal engine work, induction improvements, exhaust upgrades, supporting components, professional installation, and dyno calibration.

At the center of the build is the LSXperts Gen V LT1 6.2L “Shake N' Bake” camshaft package, installed in conjunction with a DOD/AFM and VVT delete. The work included professional assembly and installation along with the associated service components, fluids, NGK spark plugs, and MSD plug wires.

The factory LT1 cylinder heads were sent out for professional port and polish work, further improving airflow through the naturally aspirated combination.

On the induction side, the engine utilizes an MSD Atomic AirForce intake manifold, a large Nick Williams 103mm throttle body, and a Roto-Fab cold-air intake system. A Mighty Mouse Solutions WILD catch-can system adds crankcase ventilation support appropriate for a modified direct-injected LT1.

The valvetrain was further upgraded with a Brian Tooley Racing LT rocker/trunnion package, professionally assembled and installed as part of the build. A Mishimoto 180-degree thermostat was also incorporated into the combination.

Kooks Stainless Exhaust
Exhaust flow is handled by a premium Kooks stainless-steel long-tube header system with 3-inch GREEN catted connection pipes.

Combined with the factory dual-mode performance exhaust, the system gives this LT1 the breathing capacity needed to support the heads-and-cam combination while retaining a sophisticated street-car presentation.

Documented Dyno Performance
The build was professionally dyno tuned, and the included Dynojet sheet documents three stages of performance:

561.80 RWHP / 492.58 LB-FT – E85
528.23 RWHP / 470.36 LB-FT – 93 Octane
426.40 RWHP / 433.02 LB-FT – Baseline

That represents approximately 135 additional rear-wheel horsepower over the documented baseline in its E85 configuration.

For a naturally aspirated Gen V LT1 combination, these are serious numbers-particularly in a 6-speed manual Camaro.

Documentation
One of the most important aspects of this car is the paper trail accompanying the performance work. Included with the Camaro are the LSXperts build invoice, Dynojet results, photographs documenting the engine work, installation paperwork, factory window sticker, and additional supporting records.

The LSXperts paperwork documents approximately $16,627 in invoiced work and specifically identifies the camshaft package, AFM/DOD/VVT deletion, cylinder-head work, Kooks exhaust, MSD induction components, Roto-Fab intake, BTR valvetrain upgrades, cooling modifications, catch-can system, installation labor, and professional dyno tuning.

That documentation gives the next owner something particularly valuable in the modified-car market: a verifiable build history from a recognized LS/LT performance shop.

A Serious Naturally Aspirated Sixth-Gen SS
With its ported heads, LSXperts camshaft package, upgraded valvetrain, 103mm throttle body, MSD intake manifold, Kooks long-tube exhaust, Roto-Fab intake, supporting modifications, professional tuning, and documented 561.8 rear-wheel horsepower, this is substantially more than a cosmetic 2SS.

Add the 6-speed manual transmission, premium 2SS equipment, Red Hot finish, extensive documentation, and strong factory option list, and the result is an exceptionally well-rounded modern muscle car that offers both collector appeal and the kind of naturally aspirated performance that is becoming increasingly difficult to find.
