1976 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am 400
The Basics: This is my 1976 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am, with a 400 and a
4 speed stick.
See the bottom of this page for all the details on the car and
modifications.
Modifications:
- Originally a 455 car. Replaced by the previous owner with a 1969
YC 400 motor.
- Ram Air II cast iron exhaust manifolds and true dual exhaust with
turbo mufflers. Yes, I removed that itty-bitty exhaust system that
you see in the picture.
- Aftermarket T-tops installed by previous owner in 1980.
- New clutch/pressure plate/throw out bearing.
