Cool that it has cruise control. That must have been close to the first year it was offered on the Firebird.

I wonder if the silver paint process/formula was improved for the release of the TATA. They seemed to hold up better.

A black TA must have gone over well when the movie came out.

Congrats! I didn’t think you could get a Chev 350 in a 77 Esprit. I would keep it as is. Normally, I’d want a Pontiac in there but it’s just too unusual to change. Must be getting soft as well.

I would try to save it if numbers matching. Less money than another block and will be fine for the street. If you’re going racing, then sourcing another block makes sense. 557 blocks have a bad rep...

Has anyone tried these?

Just wondering if anyone has any experience with these heads. They seem reasonably priced but no advertised flow numbers.
