Sure. The IROC's are what is next and there are deals out there to be had. If you do not find anybody here with one to sell join that board for sure.

The history section of the forum is pretty good.

FWIW they did make a 1990 IROC though they were only made through December of 1989 as that is when Chevrolet's contract with IROC ended.
I graduated high school in 90 and many days were spent dreaming of ordering a black with blue/silver stripe 1990 IROC 1LE 5spd....

Recently sold a 1991 Z28 5spd hardtop black over grey perf axle ratio - 100k miles NO Rust at all - well used - original VERY WEAK paint and needed carpet and headliner - sold it for $2000

The performance axle ratio cars are second best to the 1LE's in desirability.

I believe gm built Irocs for 1990. I graduated in 1991 and drooled all over the Grand Nationals, Irocs and GTAs. At the time i didnt have a pot to piss in. But man i could drink alot of Beer!
I would buy a nice 1LE or B4C if it came my way, but prefer a mint Iroc

That car is really pretty strange. Other than the wear on the steering wheel & shifter I would tend to believe the miles although the original gatorbacks should still be on it. I would want to see the RPO codes on that one because it has no options at all on it (not even a rear defroster) but has the IROC package? Also has the GMMG chambered exhaust/headers so not totally stock either.

Notice the block off plates on the sides of the dash where the vents would normally go - very rare A/C delete dash.

Thank youuuu

The BEST of those years would be a G80/G92 performance axle equipped 1989 with the N-10 dual cat exhaust.

The most fun would be the LB9 305 5 speed G80/G92.

The G92 will include the "1LE" rear brakes and positraction, but then ALL 1989 & up f bodies with 4wdb got the larger rear brakes in 1989.

They did make a few 1990 IROC's, but it was a very short production model as they introduced the 1991 model style very early. The 1990 got the air bag steering wheel, certainly the rarest IROC made.

G80 was just the Posi Rear RPO, G92 was the performance gears RPO code and not all of the 89's got the N10 exhaust as it was phased in that year. The 89 & up cars that got the "1LE" rear brakes (larger, aluminum Borg Warner calipers) were those equipped with the J65 4 Wheel Disk Brakes package. The nice thing about ordering a L98 5.7 model IROC was that you got all of the good stuff with it - the G80 posi, G92 3:23 gears, J65 rear disc, KC4 engine oil cooler and the power steering cooler that was amazingly similar to the ones on the 69 TA's.

Not all IROC's were built the same, and unless you check the RPO codes, an LB9/Auto can easily be disguised as a L98 one - but they are vastly different animals. The LB9 in auto form was neutered with the smaller cam while the LB9 coupled with the 5spd (MK6 World Class T5 in 88 & up) got the same cam as the 350. The only exception here is the 85 models that got the Corvette L98 Cam in the LB9 and was only available in auto form. Those are great cars to own as they are responsive in auto form. Don't buy an 86 at all, it was the low point of the bunch with the awkward high mounted stop light & the smaller cam, no 5spd & no 5.7.

1990 is the shortest production year ever for the Camaro & Firebird starting in the summer of 1989 and ending on December 31, 1989 - there were NO 1990 Camaros or Firebirds built in 1990. 1991 model year started on January 1st, 1990 and ended in the summer of 1991.

not true, you can have a 5.7 IROC without G92 and you get single exhaust/cats.

Because of the mid year phase in of the N10 exhaust, the early 89 F body cars (C & P) with G92 didn't get the N10.

however all Pontiac Formulas/Trans Ams DID get G92 with the 5.7 after the intro date, not true with the Camaros

FYI, ANY LB9 G92 5-speed will be the "good" one

You are wrong here, ALL of the 5.7 cars got all of the equipment I listed above regardless if they included the G92 or not - it was all part of the B2L package.

The years were not mutually exclusive however - different years used different combinations of RPO codes. 91 & 92 Z28's with the L98 required G92 to get the 3:23 gears 87-90 did not. Shortages also caused the replacement of the J65 rear discs with the J41 drums in various years. 85-90 got the Australian built Borg Warner 9 bolt (the better rear) 91/92 got the 10 bolt.

It's a tangled web of inconsistencies and changes - when the OP finds a car and wants to check it out - let me know the VIN & I may be able to pull the entire RPO list for you to confirm it.

1989 IROC-Z. Ordered new by me. LB9, 5 speed, G92, (which bundled), N10 dual cats, 3.45 BW Aussie 9 bolt with the PBR brakes and KC4 oil cooler. It's also a DX3 decal delete car. 11K miles. For the record, the 5 speed LB9s got the L98 cam instead of the LG4/L03 "peanut cam".

If you wanted a fast one, you needed to know your way around the order book. There is a HUGE difference in performance between the "peanut cam" LB9, single cat exhaust, 700R4, 2.73 rear axle, disc/drum IROC-Z the dealer would stock and the one I special ordered.

I almost ordered it as a 1LE. By my intention was to use it as a daily driver and I was tired of going to work sweaty with no AC. Who knew I'd only have 11K miles on it 28 years later. LOL!

It's an addiction - but those of you considering jumping in should be doing so NOW before all of the low mile or stupid rare stuff gets scooped up.

Since Charlie is sharing....

My 1990 Trans Am 1LE is 1 of only 4 1LE's built by Pontiac in the 1990 model year and was sold through the internal ordering system to John Bennett at GM Chassis Division. John raced it in showroom stock for it's first year then built it for A-Sedan and sold it to Jim Crist of the Toy Store in Florida. Jim campaigned it for several years winning polls, races and setting track records with it at tracks like Daytona, Homestead Miami, Road Atlanta & Sebring. It's currently in it's as raced presentation and is for sale - did I mention it has a factory aluminum hood? :D

My red 1991 Formula is also a 1LE and was ordered three times before being accepted into production by it's original owner. Once accepted he added every single option he could including T-Tops! It is one of 46 1LE Formulas built in the 1991 model year and is one of only 8 built with t-tops. I am the third owner of this car, the 2nd owner started the restoration on it & I completed it - it is also for sale.

My white 1991 Z28 is a 1LE car as well & was ordered new by a female Delco executive in Rochester NY. She decided she wanted something more than a straight race car and added power locks, rear defroster, the cassette stereo and a Leather interior in grey. It's a great car to drive and I enjoy it often. The only other leather equipped 1LE car that I've seen is in Ken Lingenfelter's collection and is red on red - I believe 16 total were built, based on the compnine database.

Lastly, my 1987 Black IROC that I ordered new, sold when it was 2 years old and found again through the help of this board in Janesville WI. I've spent the last two years collecting parts for it and it will be getting a full restoration this year - back to it's original presentation. It's getting treated to an N10 dual cat exhaust, 1LE brakes all around, a JG1 aluminum drive shaft and other assorted parts to improve it's ride & performance. It will never be for sale. :D

All of them are 305/5spd/G92 cars, my 87 IROC being radio delete as well.

He took it to the track for the first time, both for him and the car. A bunch of 4th gen guys were looking at his "RS" as he was about to stage and started laughing, expecting a 17 second 1/4 mile. Ha! First run ever, 13.6 seconds. The 4th gen guys stopped laughing.

Very underrated performance potential especially 1987-1992. Most third gens carry the front for a considerable distance at the drags and the 9 bolt is one very tough rear end.

That's fast & I would suspect it was tweeked a little before it left the plant although with the N10 & I suspect an aluminum drive shaft - it should do well.

My 87 in it's only trip to a track by one of the former owners achieved a best of 14.57 @ 91.71 MPH with 88k miles showing (it had more on it) and block & heads being replaced under warranty. Temp on the slip says 115! :eek:

Like your friend's B4C/1LE Charlie, my 91 Z28 pulls noticeably harder than the comparably equipped 90 Formula I had last year. You could tell with your eyes closed which car you were driving.

4 wheel disc brakes. Lots of options.

4 wheel discs also means a posi in '85, which is a nice thing to have. J65 4 wheel discs and posi were bundled together in '85. Also in '85 I believe the 700R4/LG4 came standard with a 3.23 rear end which should give some decent torque multiplication with the LG4's low RPM torque.

BTW, my yellow '85 came with disc/aluminum drums and an open rear end. With the L69 cammed LB9 and 3.42 gears, it's a one wheel smoke show at anything beyond half throttle. Getting a posi for it is on my "to do" list.

If this '85 actually has 10K miles and is mint, sounds like an interesting car, and one you could have some negotiating leeway with.

Great thread!
I have been poking around for a 5.7 Iroc myself. Good info on these cars that people on here have brought to the table.

Question: What was the scoop on the 84 Z28 with the HO motor, 5 spd, and 3.73 gears? On paper this thing was only like 175 HP if I remember correctly. However I had a buddy in high school that had one. All he did was remove the catalytic converters and put an aftermarket muffler on the car and that dang thing was beating 5.0 mustangs somehow.
Maybe his was just an apple out of the crate. I always liked the looks and the handling of the Irocs back then and even today.

The L69 HO was rated at 190 hp in the Camaro. And came out mid year on the 1983.

It was thrown together fairly urgently when the LU5 Crossfire just wasn't able to hang with 5.0 Mustangs, plus the LU5 was having trouble being certified with a stick.

It was a back to basics hotrodded smallblock, based around a bigger cam, decent compression and MUCH more free flowing exhaust which included bigger exhaust manifolds, bigger Y pipe, new free flowing cat, bigger I-pipe. The Q-jet and ignition were recalibrated and a new free flowing dual duct air cleaner housing was added. Initially they were only available with stick and 3.73s. In the blink of an eye, Z/28 and Trans Am had gotten straight line parity with the Mustang GT.



Trivia: The Crossfire intake manifold was based on the same casting as the 1969 Z/28 Crossram 302. GM reuses EVERYTHING! They reduced the runner size to increase velocity, but it really needed a lot more development. I guess the intake worked better with two 600 CFM Holleys at 7200 RPM than it it did with two 275 CFM TBs at 4500 RPM. LOL!

By the time of it's release no further development was in store for the Crossfire as GM had already moved on to develop TPI.


Trivia #2: The HO motor needed a code, since it didn't have one. As a joke, the engineers who developed it said they should call it the L69. Their boss thought that was pretty funny, and approved it!

Not to highjack the thread but would anyone be interested in a 1992 RS Camaro Heritage Edtion red with black stripes only 2900 original miles? My parents bought the car new in Dec of 91 never in bad weather always in the garage and covered.

PM me with details.

Very cool info on the HO's!!
Are those sought after at all? I wonder if those were quicker cars than the ones that came out later with fuel injection. The HO I knew would run with just about anything and most of the time it was in front. The day he took the cats off was the day it was a totally different car. My other buddy had a brand new 86 GT and the HO could never beat it, but it would run with it. After the cats were removed it would be the GT every single time.

Certainly sought after on the '83-'84 cars. The best one would be a 1985 IROC-Z, with the L69.

A handful were made in 1986, but those are unicorns. I don't ever remember seeing one, or at least not more than one.

The L69s wouldn't beat a big cam LB9. My yellow '85's LB9 is essentially an L69 with TPI - cam, exhaust, everything. Even saddled with an automatic trans, the TPI was a tenth or two seconds faster in the 1/4 mile than an L69/T5/3.73. Peanut cam LB9 is a different story.

I had an L69 83 Z28 that I sold last year - with the 3:73 rear gears it was no slouch!

Yes they are the most desirable of the earlier series cars but once the TPI came out they were left behind.

Charlie, 1 of the domestic delivery 86's has been found.

I had an 84 Z28 w/ the HO 305ci, T5 and 3.73s. I always loved the dual snorkel. It did ok, but nothing to write home about. I loved that car otherwise. Sad part is, I still remember the VIN:
1G1AP87GOEN181444. I think it ended up in Mexico after I traded it in on a 93 Z28 in Carlsbad, CA back in 95/96. I'd love to get it back if it's still stateside though. It never showed up again on Carfax...

They are fun cars, I had to pull a car out of the back of the barn and had to move the 91 1LE Formula that was in front of it - so I took it out for a drive. :D

Yup, even three-ish decades later, they are still fun to drive cars. My daily is a six speed LS3, and although fast, I can't quite say it's more fun to drive than my IROCs.

Bigbirdxx,

I have a yellow 87 LB9, 5 speed, no T-tops, 42,000 mile survivor. I've owned it 21 years and always kept it in a climate-controlled garage.

I'm in Lancaster, PA... not far from you. PM me if you're interested.

Since I consider this the unofficial IROC-Z thread....


I got another one, but this one found me - just one of those crazy things. Bought it last week from the original owner who lives 5 minutes from me and I never knew it existed. 17,900 miles.

I've got that one on my watch list. Looks like an interesting car, having a G92 axle ratio and KC4 oil cooler. A little beat up from the sun, though.

This one is unusual because it's a G92 without the J65 4 wheel discs.

That looks decent - cup holder in the console would not be original but that's easy enough to fix. 85 model TPI got the good cam - should run pretty well.
