Since TGO is a site dedicated to thirdgens (82-92), you might search for a site better suited to your needs/questions. The following might be helpful:

car is fine, fast, not really , its a v6 nothing really spectacular. Many new cars are faster by far.

no, all formulas are v8 cars, never a v6. Many v6 cars, 3rd and 4th gens were optioned with the aero kits and spoiler of the trans am/formula style. besides, the spoiler on the car isnt body color, so it has been changed and not yet painted.

The 350TPI's would dust a v6 firebird, the 305TPI as well..

Re: What is this?

In 1995 that would have had a 3.4 liter engine I test drove a couple of those and you should also know from driving it they suck performance wise the car I finally bought was a 97 camaro with a 3.8 and a 5 speed which was a rocket compared to the 3.4 but still not what I would call a real performance car. But back to your car it is a pig but the Camaro I had was by far the most reliable car I ever had although when I had it it was only 3 years old when I bought it, so it's a good car but has more show than go and they ride nice and are pretty quiet inside too.
