84 trans am

What's up guys. Picked up a t/a a couple months ago. Got her painted and fixed up a bit. Its a work in progress but still a daily. Figured I show some pics and details.

305 engine. Newer block
Has cams 272 duration. 454 lift
Air gap intake
Holley 4 bbl Carb
Flow master exhaust
GM hei ignition
Has 02 firebird center console. Cup holders ftw
Currently t-5 but already bought a t-56 to swap in along with a f1 racing flywheel and stage 4 sprung clutch. Since I have a newer block which is one PC rear main thankfully that's saving me 400 bucks and a lot of head aches. Ill update once I do the swap n everything.

I like it. I have always had a soft spot for red T/A's. It looks to be in good shape to.

Re: 84 trans am

Thx it was in okay condition when I got it has to repair the front fenders. Small rust spot in pass door. Some paint touch up and put a clear coat over it.

On the to-do list
Drivers side lock cylinder clip for pass side
Fix a/c doesn't blow
Different rims wider in rear so I can have some traction
Find front louver like front covers for the grill
first and foremost the t-56 swap driving on the hwy 30 miles daily is killing me lol. 3.73 gears bittersweet
Electric fans
replace harness for lights wont go up or down

Then just cruise with the t-tops off. That's the plan.

I love the 82-84 trans ams, especially if you can get the original turbocast rims with bowling ball hubcaps.

I haven't decree what direction I'm going to go with the rims. Probably w.e I can find that's in my budget. (Cheap) lol
