Car and Driver Article on the 2014 Camaro
Chevy has elevated the Camaro's interior, making your driving experience race worthy . Notable changes on the 2014 model include the front  and rear fascias. The Camaro is equipped with 500 horsepower for genuine get up and go. A hand-crafted  LS7 engine, the most-commanding normally vigorous regular production small block V8 ever, is the force that impels Camaro Z/28. Highest-quality parts and meticulous assembly boosts the redline level to 7000 rpm.
    Sturdy, lightweight workings such as titanium intake valves and connecting rods paired with a forged-steel crankshaft make the LS7 engine incredibly brawny  The standard 10.5-quart, dry-sump oiling system apportions pressurized oil from an external reservoir to bulwark vital components under high-g driving situations.
    The LS7 is joined to a TREMEC TR6060 6-speed manual gearbox tha thighlights close-ratio gearing - optimized for the engine’s power aspects. The TREMEC is paired with a 5.1:1-ratio short-throw shifter to safeguard quick and exact feeling shifts
Power is distributed to the rear wheels by a limited-slip differential, which includes a helical gear set rather than traditional clutch packs. This always adjusts torque bias granting drivers to confidently put down more power to get through corners quicker.  Joined with the Performance Traction Management (PTM) system, drivers can change the level of throttle and brake intervention to fit their capability and driving situation, in effect making PTM custom to each driving situation.
