Most every formula I see is a TBI for some reason. Plus I hardley ever see 5-speed thirdgens... so I would say that the number would probably be below 2500, but I have nothing to document that. Just miandering personal experience.

Car: Yes
Engine: Usually
Transmission: Sometimes
Axle/Gears: Behind me somewhere
That'd be a good car...

Should have a 3.45 9-bolt with PBR brakes, and the better cam in the 305. Plus a light body, for a Firebird. Probably one of the fastest Birds for that year, as it came. Especially if it's a G92 car (dual cats).

It has the WS6 package..with the 16" rims......does that mean it has the G92?

WS6 was standard on all Formulas.

I believe G92 was only a option on the L98 cars in 1989.
