There was something majorly wrong at least tuneup wise with the SSEi. Your 92 SSE had the less-desired valvetrain to boot.
New for new, off the lot, the 93 SSEi will kill the 92 L27 hands down.

I'd say that on average, I can FEEL about 25% more power. That'* [obviously] a conservative number because I don't want to blow things outta proportion due to my bias towards my bonnie

glanghus as for the '94 3800 powered Camero, BonneMeMN is right Series 2 was the first 3800 in a Camero. As for the link to JLAUDIOECLIPSE post here it is http://www.bonnevilleclub.com/forum/...ic.php?t=26458 It got moved from MY RIDE into ON THE ROAD AND AT THE TRACK.

I guess I didn't know the 94 'maro had a 3400. It'* my friends car, and I'm just going by what he'* told me...I don't know anything about the camaros. All I know that it is RWD, and for whatever year it is, it still looks pretty sleek.

Marty'* car kicked the crap out of mine when we were side by side at about 75 -80 and put'em down....But I've done some tuning and cleaning since then....but his N/A just pulled away from me.But I got almost 200k on it now, and I'm pretty sure it doesn't have the umpth it used to....but it does very well for it'* age. I can kick the snot out of a 3.8 mustang GT...I've done that a few times. Just my 2 cents FWIW.

13'* may not be fast but for a 4 door luxury sedan to take on these big names is outstanding....Need I say what 12'* means?
