Pedro S is a idiot....the LS-1 is crap compared to a LT-5...besides, a LS-1 can fit in the Camaro....the cool thing about the camaro is that it can utilize Corvette base model mechanical and aftermarket parts...you can stick with the 305 or 350...throw a supercharger in there, get aluminum Edelbrock or Hooker heads, get a Holley 750 cfm carberator, ....or you can go up to a 427, 454, 502, or 540 cid V-8....even a 472 or 383....GM Performance parts, American Racing, Year One, Bill Mitchell Racing, Ligenfelter, and SLP have a alot of good parts...there are so many other companies....pick up GM Performance or Super Chevy magazine....Hot Rod is a good source...but do some research online..my advice is start with the engine, suspension, and/or exhaust...then concerntrate on the body kits, rims, and etc...you will end up investing 5 to 10 or 20 G's.

Depending on the bodys well being... if it looks like its gonna fall apart fix the body first if not then start with the performance and little simple cheap things like exhaust then work your way up to the big things. My buddy fixed his 91 Camaro up and put about 20,000 into it. Now nobody wants to run him a pass on the road. You have got a good start now go with it.

My guess is you are new to driving, and you shouldn't do anything for a while. Get used to it first and get some experience before you start tearing up the road, there's always time for that later. I'm sure you're excited about it but just be cool and relax and wait a little. It'll give you more time to save some money and decide how you want to do the car up.

You could start with the exhaust system....dual flowmasters would be nice...then a cold air intake system like K&N. You can put TBI spacer on it then I would suggest a perfomance chip for the computer all this things are bolt on...no need to go in to the engine itself.

The best way to start would be to get a better car. An 88 camaro is a pile of crap.
