1998
For the 1998 model year, the Camaro was revised and received a new front fascia. This replaced the quartet of square inset headlights. Replacing the LT1 was GM's all-new 5.7 L (346 ci) LS1, which had been introduced with the Corvette C5 in 1997. The all-new design featured an aluminum cylinder block with iron sleeves, reducing weight by about 95 lb (43 kg) with aluminum compared to the iron block LT1.
Minor changes were made to the suspension and the brakes were increased in size. The LS1 powerplant was rated at 305 horsepower for this year. Total production for 1998 was just 48,495. This is the first year that the SS was actualy manufactured by the plant in twenty years .
