Here's a breakdown:
* 2.8L V6: This engine used hydraulic flat tappet lifters.
* 5.0L V8 (305ci): This engine used hydraulic flat tappet lifters as well.
* 5.7L V8 (350ci): This engine also used hydraulic flat tappet lifters in the 1987 model year.
Important Note: These lifters are specifically for the 1987 model year. Later Camaro models may have had different lifter types.
Here's why it's important to know the specific engine:
* Lifter Compatibility: Different lifters are designed for specific camshaft profiles and engine types.
* Performance Upgrades: If you're planning performance modifications, you'll need to consider the type of lifters in your engine.
To identify the correct lifters for your 1987 Camaro, you should:
1. Confirm the engine size: Check your vehicle's title, registration, or the engine block itself.
2. Consult a repair manual: A service manual for your specific year and engine will provide detailed information about the lifter type and specifications.
