Re: My 1984 F41 Camaro Build Thread

Got my new hood on and painted, also got some smoked tail light covers for her. Now its time for a motor swap. I need to start sourcing parts, starting with a motor. Anyone have a cheap LS, 5.3/6.0?

Re: My 1984 F41 Camaro Build Thread

As far as i know all 3rd gen hoods fit for 82-92, however some people have high rise carbs and need a taller hood. That is not stock though... Someone correct me if i am wrong.
