2013 COPO Camaro News – Quick Cars

In case you haven’t heard, GM ran another 69 COPO Camaros for 2013 that offered a slightly different lineup of engines and transmissions. The first run of racers offered three engine combo options: a small supercharger on a 5.3L engine, a larger Whipple blower on the same size 5.3L motor, and a normally aspirated 427 LS engine. For 2013, three engines were again offered, with the only returning engine being the 427. As first released, the two other powerplants were going to be 325hp and 375hp, 396ci LS engines. These were a nod to the original 325hp and 375hp, 396ci big-block Chevy engines offered in the ’67 Camaro. The lineup changed slightly on the way back from the NHRA horsepower factor meeting, and by the time the smoke had cleared, the 325hp, 396ci engine combo morphed into a 350hp, 350ci LS engine, effectively lowering the displacement and raising the rated horsepower.
