If I were you, I would go to the forums at www.camaros.net and do some searching through the archives...there is a lot of information on there about it.  The best I remember, some of the US made stuff is okay and some is no better than the import stuff...the only way to know what is worth buying and what isn't is to spend an hour or so reading throgh the old threads.
