Details

This 1986 Camaro IROC-Z received a complete restoration and has been enhanced with new technology throughout. The fresh restoration has 160 miles since its start and 10 shakedown miles since full completion. The entire drivetrain has been upgraded and the original, power-starved 305ci 190hp engine has been upgraded to a more powerful and modern GM 7.0-liter LS7 electronically fuel-injected crate engine producing 505hp paired to an Extreme Automatics custom 4L80E automatic transmission with Gear Vendors overdrive controlled by a PCS TCM2800 control module. This set up is programmed to operate as a 6-speed automatic transmission. It has a QA1 carbon-fiber driveshaft turning a Ford 8.8-inch rear end equipped with an Auburn Gear posi-traction unit. All steering (which is still stock) and suspension parts have been replaced, except the gearbox. Equipped with an upgraded suspension including welded subframe connectors and adjustable coilovers. The stock intake was modified to increase airflow. The 3.5-inch exhaust is black ceramic-coated stainless steel with 2-inch headers and 3-inch Y-pipe, exiting through a Varex XForce stainless-steel muffler configurable for variable volume, and is equipped with a Champion Cooling Dual Pass LS Conversion radiator. Braking is handled by power-assisted Baer 6-piston calipers clamping on 14-inch drilled and slotted rotors. The IROC's more aggressive appearance comes from using Stinger fiberglass wide-body panels that include the hood, front fenders, rear quarters, and front and rear bumpers. The hood has been further modified to incorporate functional cooling louvers. Beautifully finished in its original red color with satin black ground effects, shark-fin, mirrors, louvers, gas filler cap and wing. This IROC-Z rides on 20-inch Cray wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires; 335s out back with 265s up front, all with TPMS sensors displaying tire pressures on the DVD screen. The interior has been restored using its stock colors and materials, also featuring the optional dimming rearview mirror and roof console. Other features include power locks with keyless entry, windows, rear hatch release and side mirrors. An upgraded stereo system includes a Jensen unit with GPS/navigation, DVD, SiriusXM, Bluetooth and a backup camera with Pioneer speakers. The instrument cluster has been upgraded with a Dakota Digital VHX unit, and all lighting inside and out has been updated with LEDs. The headlights are Vision X Vortex LEDs with halos on the outside units serving as daytime running lights, while the inside halos are used for turn-signal lights. Over $80,000 in new parts. All operator's manuals, a repair manual and installation instructions, including the original owner's manual, are included.
