1970 Pontiac Firebird Formula 400 Ram Air III review from North America
"400 CI Fire breathing Import Eating Muscle Car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Posi Tracion Rear blew out the back!
Rear Tires need to be replaced A lot.
General comments?
This car stock, when it was unrestoed after it sat in my dads garage, killed a TT Supra on the streets. This car stock has 345hp and 430 lbs of torque at the WHEELS, this is a beast of a car. Ran 13.5 unrestored at Ewrindale.
I put $3,000 in this car, new tires, trany rebuilt, headers, exhaust, mufflers, carb, camshaft, 3.73 rear gears all cost less than $3,000. And turned out 12.4!
Has 70 TA handeling, so it handels AMAZING!
This car is one hell of a car, get it if you can afford $30,000.
