1980 Chevrolet Camaro

For 1980 the old 250 cubic inch six was replaced by a 229 cubic inch V6, a first for the Camaro, and a 267 cubic inch V8 became an option. The Z28 hood gained a rear pointing scoop with a flap opening at full throttle, and a federally required 85 miles per hour speedometer arrived. The 120 horsepower 267 cubic inch V8 became an option on the base, RS and Berlinetta models, and the Z28 hood had a rear pointing raised scoop with a solenoid operated flap that opened at full throttle.
