Thats always cool. I wish my dad got another Thirdgen. That would really help out in the Father Son bonding process.

Without a doubt, the firebird, lol... actually I am not sure... the Iroc has the better engine with the 305tpi, the bird has a 305 lo3. On paper the Iroc is faster but the firebird has a few upgrades the Iroc doesn't have. The bird has a hyperchip, open element, hei coil, semi-ram air ,etc. The only thing I have noticed on my brother's iroc in my short look at her is her flowmaster catback and ac delete which may/may not be factory I will have to check the RPO codes.

Many people who go the AC delete route, don't swap in the accompanying dash shell, which is different from the AC version. Anyway, for hoots you might take a look at it.
