my 91 LB9 5speed TA got smashed by a tree, now parting out... 3 Attachment(s) For sale is the LB9/5spd combo out of my ’91 Trans Am. I took the car on vacation to Gatlinburg TN 2 weeks ago and during a storm a tree fell over and smashed the car. With my dabbling in road racing my IROC, and with a baby on the way, I don’t have the time to fix it, or swap the drivetrain into another car, so I bought a beautiful ’89 GTA for my daily and I’m parting my ’91 TA out. The engine is a stock LB9 with F-body LT1 cam. It was rebuilt 40k miles ago, 90% highway miles from my commuting to work. It has received valvoline oil changes religiously every 3k miles. I used a Federal Mogul rebuild kit to freshen the engine. It is still standard bore, rod, and main diameters as well. With my custom tune it got 22-24mpg in mixed driving and got 26-27mpg on the highway and does require premium fuel (which I could change if needed) . the engine also has brand new injectors, coolant temp sensor, map sensor and O2 sensor. The trans was rebuilt with new synchros and bearings 20k miles ago, again highway miles. The clutch has 40k on it from when the engine was rebuilt. I run redline synthetic fluid and the trans operates perfectly. I want to stress this is a COMPLETE combo ideal for you RS and Firebird guys out there. The engine, Speed Density wire harness, ECM with my custom tune, trans, clutch, custom Y-pipe and 3” cat all are included in the package. The T5 is out of a late 80s S-10 with the 3.76 1st gear, this combo ROCKED with my 2.73 geared TA. It would really get up and go off the line, then it would idle down and only sip the fuel on the highway in 5th gear. The car also has an aluminum driveshaft and a posi drum 2.73 rear that I’ll be selling as well. The posi works pretty well unless you really turn hard and unload the inside tire. Car and rear axle have 145k miles. I’m open to any questions you guys have. I have purposely left the engine and trans in the car and operable, so those of you guys that are local can come drive the car and see how well it runs for yourself. I’d like to get $1200 bux out of the engine, trans, clutch, harness, ECM, sensors, custom tune, y-pipe and cat. I think that’s a really fair price for the time, money, and work I have invested. This was an AWESOME combo for a daily driver with some power. I’m also open to offers because frankly, I do need to get rid of this stuff so I have room in my garage again. I’m also parting the rest of the car out for those interested. The car has good stuff listed below. Tail lights SOLD Dash pad SOLD cup holders and rear view mirror SOLD AL driveshaft with new U-joints. SOLD Good door panels $70ea Rebuilt headlight motors $75 each for the complete assemblies. Front and rear bumper covers $100 each Gages $25 for the whole gage assembly Door and body ground effects $100 per side OBO lower front ground effects are damaged but savable $50 each OBO Intact fog and turn signal lights, work properly $75 OBO for the pair. All seats are in good condition but have wear spots and small tears and should be recovered to be perfect. Front pair for $50, rear seat back and cushions $40 Gray interior plastics from the rear seats forward are OK still padded 90-92 under dash panel $25 airbag from steering wheel $75 OBO All other miscellaneous items that I’ve forgotten, just ask. I'll get more pix up on request. I have been busy lately and haven't gotten my pix uploaded but wanted to get this thread going so I can get rid of some of this stuff. this is the Y-pipe. Attachment 387677 this is what happened. Car took a wierd hit, doors don't shut well, not sure if it's permanently twisted or not. Attachment 387678 what it used to look like. Attachment 387679 |

The lines are ready to ship. The box is there and in good shape but I don't have it off yet. I'd do $40OBO for that stuff, not really sure what it's worth. ARe you in a hurry, I'm going to need time to get the box off. The engine is still in the car and running with hopes that someone will buy it complete. |

This car is NOT on craigslist YET but will be soon probably a week or so. I wanted to give you guys the first shot at everything. I'd like to get a few more nibbles on the engine and trans combo. I'm shocked that no one has been interested. |

Re: my 91 LB9 5speed TA got smashed by a tree, now parting out... Received dash today...in great shape as described...bump for seller! |
Re: my 91 LB9 5speed TA got smashed by a tree, now parting out... Thanks Don! Any takers on the engine and trans? I am floored that there has not been any interest. It's going to craigslist later this week if there is no interest here. I really don't want to part it out, I've got a lot of time in building and tuning the combination and it would be a shame to split it up. This truly is the PERFECT combo for folks out there with 2.77 or 2.73 gears, I know there are tons of RS/Firebird/IROC guys that could use this setup. |
Re: my 91 LB9 5speed TA got smashed by a tree, now parting out... My cup holders arrived today! Two thumbs up for the seller but really sad overall about the car :( What kind of radio is/was in it? Did it have an amp? How is the console? Kick panels still good? |
Re: my 91 LB9 5speed TA got smashed by a tree, now parting out... it just had the standard tape player in it that I swapped out. I'm keeping the console for my GTA The kick panels are still good. $10 plus shipping for both. |
Re: my 91 LB9 5speed TA got smashed by a tree, now parting out... Okay.......sold on the kick panels. Did you see my PM to you? |
Re: my 91 LB9 5speed TA got smashed by a tree, now parting out... The dash switch panel? Above the HVAC setup, how many switches do you have? |
