With all due repect to the OP, modifying camaros has been one of the greatest reasons for the great following camaro has enjoyed. Ease, cost and part interchangabilty has been an intrigal part of the camaro ownership experience since its inception. Heck where do you think the Yenkos came from? They are not worth less today because somebody copied what they did! The factory or dealer prepped cars will always hold their value moreso than a customers modified car. Dropping a big block, that you found in the junkyard, in your unassuming stock straight six was what enthusiasts lived for back in the day. Not to mention the racing that helped improve the product, aftermarket or OEM. To move the camaro from its pedestrian roots to an elitist crowd will only help bring its demise. GM please keep the camaro affordable and mod friendly, this has and always has been its misson. Be happy you have a factory ZL1 and let the rest of us dream that we can build one close to looks and performance on a budget.
