Hey guys, i sound like a total noob but im trying to learn more about this stuff and just need somewhere to start. I recently got myself a 79 Berlinetta Camaro, automatic for a really good deal as my first car. It started right up, ran great but the car started to slip. I checked Trans fluid in...
Hi everyone,
I just joined in hopes of some help finding my mom's 1979 Z28. Unfortunately, I don't have a ton of information, but what I do have makes it sound fairly unique. Here are the details:
1979 Z28
Light Blue Metallic
automatic
rear positraction (I think that's the correct term)
Sold...
I'm looking for the hood scoop insert that goes into the reverse scoop from a 1978/1979 Camaro. The black grille shown in this picture. I have the scoop, just missing the insert
Thanks!

Hey guys, I'm new to Camaros and the forums, recently picked up a 1979 as a daily driver. Originally a 305 car its been swapped to a 350. I'm new to SBC motors, but I was able to easily locate both the casting number and the machine pad with the engine ID. Casting number is 14010207 so I know...
What’s up guys,
So I have good speakers in my 79 maro, but for some reason, I can’t have the bass very high because it makes a sort of rattling sound. I believe that it’s the metal casing that the speakers are in (right below the rear windshield), and was just wondering if anyone knew a fix to...
Hi again everyone. Been a boring winter not much to do. Got a quick question for you maybe someone has some experience with this. I got my new exhaust system installed last summer on my 79 Z28 (factory style exhaust) and I would notice a rattling noice from the back of the car when it was in...
So I've had this problem before, where my brakes would squeal when I pump the brakes and won't stop squealing until I stopped. I fixed it originally by putting disc brake quiet on, and it didn't squeak for a solid few months. I'm having this same problem again, where the brakes squeal loudly as...
Ok, to start, I have a 1979 camaro. I'm not really sure the specific kind it is, except it's definitely not a z28. It's a 305 5.0L V8, with a 4 barrel carburetor. It's also an automatic. It has some aftermarket upgrades but majority of the car is stock, except for some visual and other things we...
Let me introduce Betty. Gosh, I hate to sell her, but the manual transmission is killing my bad knee. It hurts to driver her. Betty was born in 1979 in Norwood, OH. She had a complete restoration in 2008. She was restored to just about original condition. I have all the receipts in a file...

Hello everyone, new to the site. I have a 1979 and currently running 205/70/14's on Cragar SS rims up front. Put on the front spoiler and side pieces and need something to fill up the wheel well more. Can I run an 8" x 15" with 4.125 BS Cragar SS rim with a 235/60/15 BFG TA or would it be...
My 79 z28s old steering box had every seal blown and was leaking my ps fluid out. So I went online and bought a rebuilt one. It was a perfect match mounted right up. I bled the system with the engine off and front wheels off the ground. Went from lock to lock as what they say. I started it and...
Hello I have a 1979 z28 and my windshield wiper switch is shot. It has the delay/pulse switch witch I tried to find one online with no luck. However I can get a standard switch without issue! I'd like to convert to the standard switch. I saw some write ups on how to go from standard to pulse but...
I'm installing a new SP350 Engine in a 1979 Camaro Z28 which had a stock 350. The new engine is supposed to make about 385HP @ 5600RPM. It calls for a minimum 6PSI fuel pump. The new engine did come with a pump that has enough pressure but it would be more convenient to install the stock fuel...
