This car has 11 camp and runs on race fuel or pump 92 if in higher alt but runs better with mix or straight race fuel! Has all new fuel lines and chrome pulleys and other parts. This motor is well built and dyno up here at alt 4500 with 350 to rear wheels and would have even more at sea level The guy on dyno said it was the best iron head car that he had on his dyno. Can get more detailed if need. Also Has 240 chrome alt.

Like I said above Has almost all new trim and what was not has been cleaned up. Exhaust is all new with 3 inch thru flowmaster 2 Chamber muflers new style and is load but sounds awesome not that noise of no power. I bought this car with the original miles of90,000 on it 20 years ago and was brown with tan interior custom. Car was ordered without the vinyl roof and came with original rallys which were sold. Car was in perfect shape when bought and had a 350 two barrel,which gave out after driving awhile. The rear end was a ten bolt non posi. I have completely redone car with specs above. I spent many years doing this car and this is the second time on rebuild of this 400 motor from a stock rebuild to a performance motor.The Air Cleanor was designed by me with the filter in the scoops for up in reno you need lots of air and with all air cleaners it was not working so I came up with this design and it works awesome at track and works from idle to full throttle at end of track, I have only taken car down track a few times and with tires spinning thru 1 st and second and hit a 13.50 up here at 4500alt and if had run slicks car would have been easily high 11 to 12 second quarters. This Car is a beast and runs top notch. Has Rpm gauge and a tree of three. Also has amp gauge. There is some cracking by hood scoops because of age of hood but not bad and very small. Dash has been dyed to match but has a few small cracks on top but custom cover hiding all and has by radio area a few marks. But over all in good shape.The car also has no radio and ac any longer.Car has the line lock for front tires but not hook up.Has nitrous gauge and car is set up to run it as far as mechanical but gauge not hooked up.Did not take car off frame which is the only thing I did not do.Car probably won't pass your smog if you need to smog it, it might pass just won't guarantee, most states don't make you smog classic cars. Have not had to since smog the frrst time for have not driven car over 2500 miles a year, more like 500 to 1000. Car also has one small oil drip in back but known for Pontiac.Car has separate switch for fuel pump and fans and other switch for line locks if to hook up. This Firebird is fast and clean and fun! Has been in Hot August Nights here in Reno and Has had lots of attention and many picks taken. I took care and pride redoing this car and it shows. I am sure There is something I have done not listed here and can answer any questions needed. Many questions goes as follows motor is new and was painted when out of car and Is kept clean. The hood is fiberglass and the cracks on front of hood are small surface cracks by front scoop and very easy to fix and only in a real small area.If you don't want to fix up a car then this is the one to have.!t is not a everyday ride for the gas would cost you severely but could.! have parts to go with car when sold and fuel. I had put it in cheap last time to give people a chance to bid but must have gone to cheap and this time I am putting car in for 28000. I have lots of time and money into car and 28000 does not even compare to the money spent into car. I am only selling car to start a new project. Who ever has seen this car in person calls pristine and one of the nicest sounding and looking cars they have seen. This is not just some Firebird off the street that you can buy! If you want fast and people to smile and thumbs up everywhere you go then this is the car. Motor was put together right and forged everything and tuned to the dyno. You supply pick up of car and if your shipping it you supply carrier on your own to get it there. Your buying the car you pick up.There is 2000 deposit no refunds. Also you buy the car As is no warranty. No test drives I will take you out if needed. Alan 775-233-1868 |
