Sorry, I'm no expert on the Camaro packages.

Thanks for clarifying.

On a side note, good luck trying to get a V6 Camaro to 155. It will take quite a long time. 300 HP will only go so far.

For a 300HP car, not many places.

I've been able to get to 135 in my 05 GT (slightly restricted due to gearing and not going into 5th gear) in less than 20 seconds. My old Cobra was able to hit 145+ in barely 20-25 seconds. I haven't confirmed how long, but, 500+ HP and gaering goes a long way, but stops quickly at higher speeds due to lack of gearing, haha.

Obviously something like that can be acheived (not recommended of course) in late hours when there is little to no traffic, especially on wide open back roads, etc. Not condoning testing it or doing this, just mentioning it.
