The SS included a 350 cu in (5.7 L) V8 L35 and L78 and 396 cu in (6.5 L) big-block V8's were also available. The SS had entries non-functional hood scoop, special striping and SS badging on the grille, front fenders, gas cap and horn button.

The Z/28 option code was introduced in December 1966 for model year 1967. It was the brainchild of Vince Piggins, who conceived offering "almost ready to race" Camaros for sale from any Chevrolet dealer. This option package was not mentioned in any sales literature, so it was unknown to most buyers. The Z/28 option required front disc brakes and a manual transmission 4-speed Muncie. It featured a 302 cu in (4.9 L) small-block V-8 engine, 3 "crankshaft with 4" hole, an aluminum intake manifold and a 4-barrel Holley 780 cfm vacuum secondary. The engine was designed specifically to run in the Trans Am series (which required engines smaller than 305 cu in (5.0 L) and public availability of the car. Advertised power of this engine was listed at 290 hp (216 kW). This is an under-rated figure. Chevrolet wanted to keep the power rating in less than one horsepower per cubic inch, for various reasons (eg, classes of insurance and race).
The assessment of factory 290 hp at 5,300 rpm occurred, while actual peak for the high-revving 302 was closer to 360 hp (268 kW) (with four single barrel carb) and 400 hp (298 kW) (with optional dual-four barrel carbs) in 6800-7000 rpm. OZ/28 also came with upgraded suspension, racing stripes on the cover hood and trunk, 'emblems front fender on the early cars, and' Z/28 emblems '302 'final 68 and 69. It was also possible to combine the Z/28 package with the RS package.
