Formula?

I bought an 88 Firebird. It said Formula on the door, however the guy I bought it from wasn't really honest with the rest of the car, so I'm not sure if it is a real formula or not. There is no rpo sticker in the console either. Everytime I run the VIN, it comes up as a firebird. Anyways, I haven't been able to get help anywhere else. I just found these pages, They ROCK by the way, so maybe you guys can help. Here is what I got.

1988 Firebird T-top
305 TPI, 5 Speed
BW 9 Bolt 3.45 Posi
4 Wheel Disc Brakes
Originally 16" wheels (The idiot before me changed to 14's)
I'm not sure about the size of the sway bars, But they are pretty fat.
Badges: Performance Sound , Performance Suspencion

That's about all I have. Thanks for any help!

I agree.

As long as the VIN says its a 305 TPI theres no doubt its a Formula based on what else you stated.

The VIN does match the Engine. Thanks for the help! At least I know I didn't get totally ripped off by that jerk!
