Th engine compartment is another story left for car shows. Not too many people pick up on the strut towers and huge sway bar / not to mention the location of the steering box ... 69 camaros had the steering box located far back on the frame / the 1986 IROC has the steering forward of the frame making for better steering, not forgetting the IROC has quick ration steering / 2.5 turns lock to lock.
The "crate motor" valve covers also throw off onlookers. The engine is an early 010 block punched .30 over / now a 355 filled with a rough idle cam and flat top pistons. Gear drive makes for a beautiful whine when travelling down the road. Other items to add to the go-fast are high output HEI distributor / Holley 650 carb and ceramic coat headers.
