I’ve got two 284s sitting on the bench now. One is needing a ‘rebuild’ lol or exploratory surgery to see how they come apart and never go back together again. I haven’t quite got the engine rebuilt yet that is going to go together with the good 284 I have. The rebuild should be finished up by spring. Need to source out a good cradle yet.

I'm a fan of the comfort, the crisp handling for car this size, the power (310hp stock) which smokes my 2001 GP by a lot, the huge trunk, the goodie list and the hi-way mpg is insane (30mpg @70mph with this much power??) The mod list is as follows, 19x8.5 +30 ESR wheels, 245/45 BFG g-force Comp2 tires, hi-flow 3rd cat, Flowmaster HP-2 resonator, Magnaflow 4x9 mufflers, debadged, color trim sill plates, Lloyd floor mats, blue carbon interior trim kit, 35% tint all around, painted mirror housings, carbon fiber wrap side spears, trunk trim and grill BowTie, gloss black mesh grill insert, carbon fiber wrap upper/lower grille surrounds, satin black wrap window trim, carbon fiber door handle covers, pedestal deck lid spoiler, honeycomb light tint tail light wrap, K&N drop-in air filter, delete intake tube sound muffler...and I have some custom "Thunderbat" decals on the way. Oh yeah, and the 2010 Camaro hood louvers! (non-functional)

Searching ebay and amazon today for the tools to do it right. Will order a intake manifold gasket too. Got called out of town, and have to leave again... so hopefully by next weekend I will have what I need to finish this. Was always a great car, and look forward to having it on the road again. For a 93 with under 65k miles... it's worth fixing.

Ok... can't say IO don't procrastinate sometimes. Two years later... Finally put it in my garage. Pulled the covers off and cleaned out all the muck from the belt... Now to try to align the marks and put the belt on without the cam tool that I do not have.
