	Introduction of the LT1, rated at 275 horsepower. M6 cars offered with either 3.23 or 2.73 rear end ratios due to the 2 different 6 speeds offered in that year. The unique transmission in 93 had a higher (numerically) 1st and 6th gear and GM offered 2.73's to conteract this. A4 cars came with the non computer controlled 700R4. They also had a lower torque capacity because of this. LT1's were ECM controlled rather then PCM, ran off of Speed Density, and were batch fire injected rather the sequential. They have a unique intake manifold casting due to their fuel rails.		Introduction of the LT1, rated at 275 horsepower.

	1993 marked the introduction of the 4th generation Camaro. Available in two versions: the base coupe, and the Z28. The coupe has black ~~"~~CAMARO~~"~~ icons on the front fenders just behind the wheels. The L32 3.4L V6 powered the base Coupe. This is not the same 3.4L that powered the Lumina Z34's of the early '90s. The Z34's engine was an DOHC making around 200hp, compared to 160hp of the Camaro. The DOHC would have been nice and the potential was enormous, but at a 1/3 more cost GM opted to go with the OHV 3.4L. Another reason was that power output was was approaching the Z28's level!		1993 marked the introduction of the 4th generation Camaro. Available in two versions: the base coupe, and the Z28.

	The Z28 was powered by the LT1 5.7L V8 MFI making 275hp. The LT1 was 1st seen in the 1992 Corvette. The Z28's version is slightly de-tuned due to the more restrictive air flow and exhaust.

	All Base coupes received body colored C-Panel (unless with T-Top's in which case both roof and c-panels would be black) and all Z28's received black C-panels no matter if equipped with T-Top's or not.
