No by, shes a 305 tuned port. It got headers and flowmasters and is in great shape. Like i said i'll try to get pics tommorrow evening. About me no being old enough, well, its kinda my project and i am paying for it so naturally i do take it out for a sckattered spin around the block, not to far though, cause it would be and expensive ticket!!

Wait a sec here, tell me I'm not the only one to notice you said a Trans Am GTA and said it has the 305 tuned port. GTA's only came with the 350 tuned port. Not that Im doubting you, but theres a difference between a Trans am, and a GTA. Does it have vents on the lower part of the front fenders behind the wheel? If so =Trans Am, if not = regular bird (sice its a 305). sorry if this seems like a flame, it wasnt intentional

YES, GTA's did come with 305s. Generally any firebird or camaro with tbars got the 305, as GM was afraid that the added power of a 350 would be too much for the car too handle without the proper structural rigidness. Now there are exceptions to this, but for the most part it's true.


Oh and deadbird...that is the funniest flash I've seen in a while, I'm showing that one to my friend, he's a car nut like me :hail:

Hey guys.. glad you like that. I couldn't begin to tell you where I found it but, I had to save it & share it.
The sad part is the fact that it's true makes it that much more funny

Yep, GTAs did come with 305s. Also 350s with T-Tops were produced too.
