GTA questions

I have a couple questions I am trying to answer for a friend who wants a 91 GTA.

1. In 1991 were all 5.7 GTA's hard tops only? Could you get a 1991 GTA 5.7 with t-tops?

2. We're 1991 GTA's offered with the 5.0 TPI, 5-speed manual, and T-tops?

Thanks

GTAsourcepage is where you could get a answer also.

Re: GTA questions

You could not get a factory 5.7L and factory CC1 T-Top combo on a Trans Am or GTA in 1990, 1991 or 1992.

This Pontiac bulletin, courtesy of GTASourcePage, suggests as such:
http://www.gtasourcepage.com/Pontiac...0cdbs/90F2.jpg

If you see any GTA against the above, it's either got aftermarket C&C T-Tops, not an original 5.7L, or possibly an export. For example, in 1987 you could get a factory 5.7L and factory T-Top GTA in Canada but not in the US.

Yes, you could get a 1991 GTA with factory T-Tops, 5.0L and 5-Speed.

Re: GTA questions

Okay, one more question. Would a 1991 or 1992 GTA have with a 305 LB9 auto transmission have the "peanut" cam or L98 cam in it?

Re: GTA questions

I've seen a 1990 T Top GTA with 350/auto but it was here in BC, Canada. I assume it was an export code.

Re: GTA questions

I checked with Compnine's database and they show no 1990 GTAs with the B2L and CC1 options - including the Z49 export. I would think it's more likely an aftermarket C&C conversion.
