How does a reverse flow coolant system work, and what are its advantages over conventional systems?
The LT1 has always had reverse flow coolant it's nice in theory but it's a pita to burp the air out
A stock one would woop up on a mustang around the same year so I think they did alright
Never understood the hype on these. Outright fugly and not even that quick without sinking some cash into them. Sure, some of your 'buddies' impalas run 11's, however, so do some Pintos. Completely irrelevant.
I own a 95 the condition isnt great but I'm going to fix it over time. Its such a beautiful car
found in any Hood across America. Just dont forget the stupid "I have a Cop light".
i heard of someone who converted one of these to a manuel tranny from a vette. 6spd. and it was really fast. pretty sure it was under 10sec car. other upgrades possible too obviously. it was on youtube
Description: Power came from the LT1 5.7-liter V8 small-block V8 that produced 260hp and 330lb-ft of torque. While this was the same engine used in the Corvette at the time, Chevrolet decided not to improve the el...

Yea those are all hp numbers your going to have to add torque to your vocabulary if you want to hang in a conversation with gear heads
in the 90s, most 4cyl were about 105-115, the prelude was 140-170 from 93-01, most v6s I remember were just at 200 from the mid 90s on, my 96 Riviera is 240, albeit supercharged, up from 210 for NA 3800 series II
Yeah well this has 330lb ft or torque. What 4 banger had that in the 90s? Exactly.
My 98 m3 (USA) puts out 240hp stock It a I6. Puts a huge smile on my face every time I drive it
This was the 90's you know when four cylinders were under 100 HP and 6's were under 200.
@Christian LT1 were very torquey engines but they weren't known for tuning, just stroke and bore it to a 383 and it'll make a good 400+ and a nice little super charger wouldn't hurt either, you can easily get 550+.
Description: Aside from the aforementioned mechanical differences, the Impala SS was a much better looking car than the Caprice. Instead of a somewhat bland and even Florida retiree-friendly appearance, Chevrolet ...

Those are the police trim wheels. Perhaps they are just showing them for contrast.
Description: Other standard features included leather seats with the 'SS' logo, a leather-wrapped steering wheel and cup holders (remember, this was the mid-90s; cup holders were not always standard then...

The G8 was actually compared to an E class and held its own on all points, the new SS is great news for Chevy.
Description: The owner of this 1995 Impala SS has managed to keep his car in fantastic condition. Unlike many other owners, he's opted to keep his car mainly stock. The only exception is some new rims that he...

Shit went back and read article, the LS2 was 6.0 so they are definitely wrong again.
The G8 GT did use a VVT version of the LS2 though. Plus it is still in use in the Commodore down in Australia, so there is a slight possibility they are right.
LS3 people! Nothing comes with the LS2 anymore... It was in the GTO (love my 06 Goat), SSR, 05-07 Vette, 06-07 CTS-V, 06-09 Trailblazer SS. The replacement LS for the LS2 is now the LS3. (Camaro SS, G8 GXP, 08-> Vette).
Cause the taurus was the Always the shitty copy cat of this. look back on the first gen taurus and the co existing impala, and from each gen up, you'll see all the similarites
Yeah Ive sat in dozens of impalas. This one is perfect condition. Wonder if its all original
That interior is in pristine shape! This person knows how to take care of his s**t!
Well in my state to apply for a historic plate, your car has to be at least 20 years old.
Phillip is right, these cars were bad ass back in the day...and still are!
This car is bad ass you guys are just haters
There is no age for classics really there are modern classics. This isn't one because it was shit
This is not a classic.. It's only 17 years old. Has to be at least 20.
