88 pontiac Formula horsepower?
My friend is considering buying an 88 pontiac firebird Formula. Im not sure which engine it has in it and i dont have the vin no. I do know it has a five speed if that helps you at all. Im wondering what engines were available in the car and what kind of HP/torque they had.

This should be on the H/R board 
but, in 88 the 305 TBI, which has 170 HP and 290 Torque is the standard engine, and it is available with a 5 speed. The optional 5 speed is the 305 TPI which has 215 HP and 290 Torque.

Looking For:
87 IROC-Z 350 TPI
84 TRANS AM 305 H.O.
