Redcliff for me (just outside Medicine Hat)

Redcliff Days has a real good turnout also....usually around 175-225 cars depending on weather.

That looks like a white Formula on the other side of your car.....it looks hot!

You and Duratys would have met last year in Calgary at the Firebird show but the first go around was rained out....then the rain at Three Hills..kept me and you away

I will cross my fingers this year we can all meet up at the Firebird show---hell---we might get 4 3rd gens at once!

Re: My '87 Yellow Firebird Formula.

Beautiful car. I see by the piture of your engine it is TPI fuel injected. I am rebuilding a 1988 FIREBIRD WITH 305 ENGINE TPI injected. Someone removed the emission label from under the hood and I would greatly appreciate if you would take a picture of the label and send it to me. I'm looking for the vacuum hose routing, timing and idle rpm. I have a factory service manual but it refers to the emission label for the these specs. This label is no longer available from GM.
Thank you
