Camaro external clues?
Help me! there is a newer black z28 camaro down the street from my work, sitting under a tree with mold growing all over it and four flat tires. I have not been able to actually stop and look but is there any external clues that would be able to tell me if it is an ls1 car? I would greatly appreciate any help.

You mean a 4th gen car? The LS1 cars were 98+ and are different from 93-97 LT cars mainly in the headlights. The LT cars have 2 rectangular headlights per side and the LS cars have sealed enclosures.
Hope that helps.Nick R.

Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

Or to clarify a little more, if the headlamps are recessed, it is an LT1 car. If they are flush with the hood and bumper, it is an LS1.

It is a popular swap to put a 98+ front end on an LT1 car. But I've never seen the opposite.

Frankly I've always like the LT cars more than the LS versions... but I'm a bit twisted that way.
