On the left side of each Guide, you find the vehicle model descriptions, and across the top are the available engine, identified by cubic inch displacement and original, advertised horsepower rating. At the bottom of each column, you may find another number which represents the NHRA factored horsepower. This is the number used in determining classification (not the advertised), and some engines will have a different factored horsepower for Stock and Super Stock.
The numbers in the middle of the page are the power to weight factors for each model and engine combination, and identify which particular class a vehicle fits into. For instance, if the particular vehicle/engine combination you are looking at has a factor of 12.39 in Stock Eliminator, the vehicle fits in I/Stock, which according to the 2001 NHRA Rulebook, is for vehicles with a power to weight factor of between 12.00 and 12.49 pounds per horsepower.
as far as I see, to be a Z28 auto it would have to have a 350 245/268 which would make it a I/sa
shipping weight 3321 lbs div by factor hp268=12.39 = I/SA
weight of the car should be 12 x268 +170 for the driver= 3386 lbs
only the manual 5 speed Z28 came with a 305
the RS camaro came with 305 in a auto
shipping weight 3269 lbs div by factor hp 241=13.56=L/sa
weight the car should be 13.5 x241+170=3425 lbs
It may be running as a 89 iroc with 305 .with a factor of 13.46 K/SA .305/220/241 hp
hope this helps
