Quick Question!

Didn't know where else to post this. I have a 1990 Pontiac Firebird. It had the V6 3100 with the 700R4 tranny. I swapped the 3100 out with a 350 Chevy Small Block and a 350 Turbo tranny. It has Trans-Am fenders and hood. So technically couldn't it be called a Trans-Am now?

No.

It IS what it IS. It's a Firebird w a 350 swapped into it and some body parts exchanged.

In the case of cars where it makes a difference what they are, people call things like that "clones".
