Default 1971 Formula Firebird 400 Ram Air

400 Ram Air in 71? Need to see PHS for a convincing argument that it exists.

Word is NO 400 RA in 71 built by Pontiac. Dealer installed is another thing. No 400 RA carb either.

I've learned something today, so I take it only the 455HO's Formula Firebirds had the Ram Air set up ?

every year from '70 to '73 was a little different on the ram air but in '71 it was only available as an option on the 455HO. Still looks like a pretty nice car and the added ram air won't hurt it's value.

Looks like a pretty DECENT ride to ME.

Not a show car,but appears to mave MOST of it's original parts.

There is something about WHITE 70-73 Formula's & base birds that just looks "lame" to me?

I guess it's just too plain & needs the T/A spoilers,scoops & blue stripes to wake up the color. (that's my least favorite Formula color in those years)
