Which camaros came with L98's
I am wondering which camaro's come with L98's. Also do they have 2-bolt or 4-bolt mains. And also how much horsepower can 2 bolt mains withstand.

Car: Red 87 IROC-Z28 T-Top
Engine: 5.7 Tuned Port Injection
Transmission: 700R4 Auto
Axle/Gears: BW 9-Bolt 3.27
The IROC-Z could only be ordered with L98's 87-90, then only with Z28's 91-92, and they are 2-bolts.

84 TRANS AM 305 H.O.: Another car that would be OK to own while I look for the IROC-Z!!

You can have lots of horsepower with 2 bolt mains just not a whole lot of torque. I race cars with my high school and it seems that when 2 bolts get over 500 ft/lbs of torque that's when they start to have problems. 4 bolt blocks are basically for racing due to the stress of racing and higher RPMs. If you're looking for 4 bolt blocks here's a list of Chevy 4 bolts:
68-69 302 (Z28)
69-72 LT1 (Z28 and Corvette)
70-72 400 (Trans Am?)
68-85 350 (3/4 ton trucks + up)
The trucks are the easiest to find from my experiences and for obvious reasons. Don't forget that you can also get machine shops to make you four bolt mains.
