No longer just an engine RPO, the Z28 was a specific model, with emphasis on the suspension and appearance. The Z28's 350 V8 engine made 185 hp, exhaling through dual exhaust resonators and it came mated to the close ratio M21. Suspension included: front & rear swaybars, special springs, special shocks and faster steering.
