Re: My firebird video

Sounds and looks good. Did you use the new iron heads? You'll get a good boost of power from those. The sagging headliner statement made me

Thanks man, I sound like a dork on camera...lol It's all stock I haven't done anything to it yet. Everyone talks about how the v6 is s-l-o-w, but I took it out and actually ran my errands in it and it has pretty good power. I'm used to v8's myself, but I can see myself sticking to this v6. I want to swap the 2.8 for a 3.4...but that will be in a few months. I know nothing about the iron heads, but where can I find them? Give me a link if you can.

Re: My firebird video

In 84 GM put better heads on the V6s with fuel injection. Yours is carb correct? Just get the ones that come with the 3.4, same heads.
