  • I've been on the lookout for a clean third gen Camaro for a some time and this one came up on Facebook Marketplace and seemed like a good deal. I made the deal and brought it home. Allegedly it was some undercover car out east aquired as part of a sting and only had 34k miles on it but had been sitting for years and needed a fuel pump to run again. Let's find out if that's the case and get this Camaro back on the road. If you'd like to own the car as shown in this video it can be yours for $1,500 USD. As always, thanks for watching!

      @MortskeRepair And in 1968, because GM President Pete Estes wasnt sure if they were going to continue the Z28 homologation, some of the engineers had a '68 convertible optioned with RPO Z28 and gave it to Mr. Estes to persuade him. It worked. That is the only 1st gen Camaro Z28 convertible ever made and it now belongs to Dana Mecum of Mecum Auto Auctions. The rarest muscle car ever built.

    I can see why you’re offering it for less than half of what you paid for it.

SBCs are loyal anyway but that tpi is better than any carb or TBI unit. I wanted to do the same as you and put an LS in it but it runs so damn good im gonna keep it.

    About 10 years ago I bought a rust free 86 Camaro RS with the 5.3. It was loaded with ac automatic power windows and seats. Everything worked even had new tires on the same rims you have on yours. I only paid $750 for it. Even all the suspension and brakes were almost new. Car drove beautifully. I drove it for 3 years only problem was I had to replace the fuel pump and I did it the correct way by undoing the rear muffler and dropping the rear axle some it was a pain but got it done. I turned around and sold the car for $3000 . I live in Florida so the car was immaculate underneath. It was red with tee tops and ground effects. Wish I had kept it now after watching this video. Sorry you got screwed so bad. Good luck in whatever you decide to do with it.

      I guess the rear limited slip axle assembly would be worth something. T5 are a dime a dozen and the engine is about a 150-200 core. Since I’ve been a technician for years I would probably snatch the drivetrain and do a decent refresh on the engine and make sure the transmission and rear diff are good and get what I could for them and scrap the rest. I’ve been there and sometimes you just have to take the loss or become a scumbag and try to screw someone else. I sleep better just taking the loss and moving on.

    Crank position sensor? It's what tells the computer where the engine is in order to fire the correct injector at the right time(when the intake valve is open). Never heard of a cold start injector, a Ford would just have longer injector pulses until the engine is warm enough to go into closed loop mode where the pulse length is adjusted to get the correct voltage from the O2 sensor.

    Years ago I worked on a 1995 GMC 1500 that needed a new fuel pump. When I finished ripping the rotted straps and got the tank down I was greeted with half a tub of hardened plumbers putty spackled around the sender. Videoed all that away and found the lock ring just sitting inside the putty not even in place and locked in. When I got the sender assembly out the o-ring seal that seals the sender to the tank was just hanging out in the bottom of the fuel tank.....🤦‍♂️ the owner had told me that the truck used a lot of coolant. When I went looking for a coolant leak I found that whoever had last replaced the thermostat and bolted the housing down with the little half oval metal plate that goes on top in between the housing and the intake manifold which left an 1/8" gap on one side that just leaked coolant like a sivv.... after all that it still ran rough. So I tracked down and fixed 463,000 vacuum leaks lol

    Nice thirdgen, she's got potential and a IROC louvered hood thou😃 dropping a tank is partially dropping the axle and most cut the floor and they make a trapdoor for that. Bonus with the posi-traction rear and nice interior, dash and wheel look sharp too! Nice job with the TPI, early models have the coldstart injector. Can't wait to see part 2!

    Good thing about those third gen’s, you can grab a diff from a 4th gen. And it bolts right up. So you’ll get disc brakes in the rear and you can get 4th gen 10 bolts dirt cheap

    I had an 81 Vette that had a rod knocking, Found 86 87 Vette TPIS cheap, Had the 350 rebuilt and cam with Vortech Supercharger and Headers. Wow What a wake up. Oh and a 700R4 tranny with 3.36 gear, It would fry the tired in low and then slip the band on the 1 2 shift, you could smell Clutch every WOT 1-2 shift. I loved that old 81. And 27 MPG Highway, I drove it from Virginia to Illinois and back great cruise. I think That old Camaro could easily be a great driver. You find em, fix em and let some one else finish it up.

Rings were stuck, threw some trans fluid in the oil and ran it a few days to free up the rings, it was good to go.

    Oh man, I was expecting the fuel rail to be absolutely disgusting after seeing the inside of that tank. Seeing you get the injector out and seeing it caked must've been awesome. I think you can flush an injector with a 9V battery or using a bench power supply and use something strong to flush it. Nice troubleshooting work on this one!!
    Oh, I bet the last guy who tried to get this running started the fire when fuel was pissing all over the ground and the lines were probably nasty with rust which accounts for where the fire was from. I bet they finally said f*** this, not my problem anymore.
    That smile when you got it running, priceless.

    The problem with putting the 350 behind the 5-speed wasn't the transmission holding together, but the frame flexing with the shifting of a manual transmission. A problem that could be corrected with subframe connectors. I suspect the problem wasn't as big a deal with non-T-top cars. I bought my 1987 GTA to get a car with the TPI engine. The TPI engine comes with a cold start fuel injector that sprays in extra fuel, but it often fails and is no longer available. Corvette TPI motors have the same problem. I haven't done it yet, but there is a way to upgrade the software to eliminate the cold start injector. While it is not a Hellcat motor ... it is fast enough to get you into trouble! 🙂
