What class and min weight

Charles Stewart · 07-16-2023, 02:17 PM

More than a V6 base model, they are a lot of the heavier duty option parts that come from a combination of both the regular Z28 and the racing handling package of the special 1LE.
Here are (as a example) some of those options from one 2002 model for sale on "GovDeals"

Tom,
IMHO since the special options package is not listed in the NHRA guide you would be able to pick the listed class for a 2002 with stick shift and make your car match the numbers required by NHRA.
I'm going to make a guess that since it was a limited production package NHRA or Chevrolet will never put that option package in the guide.
That is a good question for some of the higher up's in NHRA Tech.
That info Charlie posted looks like some good performance options.
Nice find!

I have a question regarding that post and the 2002 Camaro Z28. Was it possible to order one without T-tops ? My memory miss some data sometime...

Yes on reg cars the roof was painted black, on b4c the cars had the roofs painted the same color as the car. Tom

Thanks Mr. Meyer for the clarification.
Since you are building a Super Stock and like Mr. Adger Smith told before, IMHO also, you can present it as a Z28 and nobody will see a difference.
Since it’s already a stocker and some works are already done, I will continue on your project.
But if it’s still near an original B4C I will try to put it back to original conditions. Those Camaros are real “street performer” much better than a Z28. They will go up in value…
I will also suggest here a link for the “2002 Michigan State Police test vehicles” which is the authority that test and approve “Manufacturer police pack proposition”. (Equipment, road test, quarter mile, brake test and on and on). See page 9,15,20,22,29 and 33.

It will stay a stocker, but with the way the Nationals fill up in stock we may run it in Super Stock there. Thanks Tom
