The Bird
About this Current Vehicle:
I got this Firebird when I was 17 and going into my senior year since my 84 GMC had become too expensive to drive and needed more money put into the engine. This car is the reason why when I'm out of college that I'm going to reward myself by getting a LS1 WS6 Trans Am, the idea of owning two fbodies one day just gives me goosebumps.

Ok, so not done
Thought I was done modding the car but alas I'm not. Bought some pacesetters & y-pipe, also got a 3" s-pipe. Going to be installed on the 27th hopefully. MAYBE I'll do a shift kit and Corvette Servo if this goes well. Wish me luck

SFCs
Got some J/E Racing subframe connectors and had them welded in. Wow, what a difference in handling! I'd advise these for anyone who can find them for their application. No lost ground clearance, welds are secure, this is my new favorite mod. Unfortunately, I found out that I have to replace my catalytic converter so I've got one on it's way now and plan on getting it welded in next week.

I believe you do have to replace them. I did and got some Manley steel retainers from Intense Racing. They're pretty cheap.

I like the rockers alot. Only mod that I could feel any difference after installing. Some were a pain to install though. Mainly those under the damn cowl... Ha. Well not the rockers really, the springs were a pain. Had one pop out of the compressor and sm
