  • 92 Camaro RS

    My buddy got a 92 Camaro RS, and we were talking about me buying it. He said that it have a 2.8L, but I was doing some research, and the only thing I came up for it was a 3.1. Can anyone set the record straight?

    It came with a 3.1, he may have got confused the 2.8 and 3.1 are very simular. It is possible that some put a 2.8 in it, though highly unlikely, maybe it's all they could get for a replacement.

        Post a decent pic of the motor. Maybe a VIN number as well can give us a clue.

              could be a 305 V8. 92 was the last year RS actually got a V8. My parents have a 92RS with 72,XXX on it and it has the V8

                '92 RS came with the 3.1 V6 or the 5.0 V8 as the 2 engine choices. Should be easy to tell them apart ;)

                    I think 2.8 motors have 2.8 wrote on the intake manifold ,and 3.1 motors don't.

                      correct

                      the 2.8 upper manifolds have the circle thing w/2.8 in them, 3.1s don't have any displacement thingy

                        At the end of Part Three, we changed the valvetrain of the 3.8-liter V6 in the Tom Henry RS. We installed new, Yella Terra "Ultralite" 1.8:1, aluminum roller rocker arms, Katech valve springs and Katech titanium retainers on our 3800 Series II V6.
                        Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...
