it should have the WS6 package. Mine has the badge, as well.
Is the RPO sheet stuck to the inside of the center console compartment?

I think that's what it means. My formula has the WS6 package and the badge also. Check the lock compartment in the trunk for the RPO sheet.

Mines a Trans Am and also says that but i dont have the ws6 package

i have checked the lock compartment and tne center console, but i have not found the RPO sheet in either of these locations. odds are good that somewhere along the way it got peeled off, or just fell off and no one bothered to notice. i would really like to know if i have the WS6 packeage...is there any other way to tell???? thanx in advance for any help and thanks for the help i have gotten.

That means that it is a WS6 car. However, that doesn't tell you what level of WS6 it is.. only the RPO codes could tell you that.

Having the performance suspension badge on the dashboard does not mean the car is a WS6. I went through all the searches on my 85 TA to learn this. I just means it has poly bushings on some components and large anti-sway bars. The WS6 included a these components, plus tires and wheels, plus rear-end gearing.

whats the possible gear ratios???


hmm.... ya i got a parts car here, the pushings are larger, and i thought they might be after markey... im thinking about yanking them..

I have the same exact problem. I have no RPO stickers either so what size is the front sway bar suppose to be?

jobryan26

Another thing how can I find out my rear gears? What was in the G92option?

My RPO sheet (91 Formula WS6) is on the inside of the little box (that opens with the key) located in the driver's side of the trunk.

If you really want to find out for sure, go to your local Pontiac dealer with the VIN and see if they will check the background of your car for you. Chances are that they will be able to tell you the RPO codes on your car if they feel like helping you out (attitudes see to vary at dealerships).

The WS6 package has absolutly nothing to do with gearing. It included larger swaybars F/R, firmer springs, better valving in the shocks and struts. In 1987 the WS6 was not standard on Trans Am's or Formula's it was only an option. Some FE2, FE3 and F41 cars did recieve the Performance suspension badge also, because the T/A and Formula still had firmer suspensions, but no WS6. In 1988 the WS6 suspension was standard on Formulas and GTA's. Still WS6 equipped cars could have any gear ratios otherwise available to that particular model.

36 mm Front Sway Bar, 24 mm rear sway bar...and I believe 16" rims, etc. is WS6 "LEVEL III" suspension. My 85 TA has the performance suspension badge...not a WS6
