The fourth generation of the Chevrolet Camaro was introduced in 1993, and In 1998 the Chevrolet Camaro was given a facelift, with aerodynamic flush headlights replacing the recessed headlights that had been a Camaro trademark since the previous generation debuted in 1982. The Camaro's base engine was still the 200-horsepower 3.8-liter V6, but the Z28 and SS featured an all-new aluminum-alloy 5.7-liter LS1 small block V8. The LS1 has the same bore spacing as the LT1 it replaced, but is shorter and lighter, with longer intake runners, a winged oil pan, a .500-inch lift hydraulic roller camshaft, wider camshaft journals, and a coil for each cylinder. The LS1 is rated at 305 horsepower in the Camaro Z28, but with the ram air induction of the Camaro SS is boosted to 320 horsepower, enough to accelerate the Camaro SS from 0 to 60 miles per hour in 5.3 seconds and reach a top speed of 161 miles per hour.
