       Title Page:

       The 2014 Camaro Z/28 took the 1LE’s concept a step or two further, as a purpose-built track day racer that is street and emissions legal. Instead of robbing the parts bin and making a few tweaks, the engineering team was on a mission to create the best handling Camaro possible. They even used the opportunity to improve the aerodynamics significantly, which was subsequently carried over to the base Camaro.

       Back Cover Photos

       Top:

       The first year COPOs were available in five production-based color options, though this Summit White version with blue graphics is perhaps the most recognizable. Year to year the colors and graphics changed.

       Middle Left:

       The Quarter Master Optimum-SR Two-Disc Clutch (PN 542004) uses two 10.4-inch marcel-type discs with organic rag-type friction and a sprung hub. The vented floater plate and grooved friction surfaces are designed with cooling in mind. Capable of holding 1,400 hp and 1,000 ft-lbs, this is no lightweight, but pedal effort is still minimal. This particular clutch is going into a 650-hp Racing Head Service (RHS) LS7-powered 2010 Camaro SS.

       Middle Right:

       Texas Speed has a Basic Heads & Camshaft Bolt & Gasket Kit that includes new stock head bolts. You can upgrade to ARP bolts or studs, but the stock ones are fine for naturally aspirated street cars. The downside, though, is that they use a more complicated torque procedure using torque-to-yield bolts. ARP hardware uses only torque (not degrees) to install and is reusable.

       Bottom:

       After dropping the radiator, fans, and coolers back into place, the heat exchanger slid in behind the bumper support. Redline Motorsports felt it was crucial that the heat exchanger did not affect the air damn and underbody aero. The heat exchanger now lurks behind the Z/28’s thin upper grille and emblem, tipping off would-be challengers.
