If you get the chance to get a nice one do it. They are appreciating fast! Great video always love your stuff dude. !

    The WS6 option package wasn't offered until the 1996 model year. Prior to that, the only way to get a ram air hood was to buy an SLP Firehawk or the Comp T/A made in partnership with BFGoodrich. The reason this particular car is a Trans Am GT is because it had the big wing. If you didn't get the GT option, your Trans Am came with the shallow wing of the regular Firebird. The LT1 GM put in the Caprice/Roadmaster had iron heads and less HP. The F-Body LT1's were more in line with the C4 Corvette LT1.

    The 4th gen Trans Am was my dream car when it came out in 93 but I was 20 years old at the time I couldn't afford the payments or insurance. I did end up owning a few different 4th gens years later and that Delco radio was the first thing to get swapped out in every one.

    I always thought the hood nostrils and wing on 90s Firebirds were ridiculous compared to the Camaro but the engine and chassis make up for it. This would spank a Mustang GT. I love how GM didn't give you a choice of where the air goes when the A/C is on. Good old dumb GM decisions. Agreed that 90s GM had the most comfortable seats.

    First off Loved the video as a Trans am owner but ….. There is a slight problem about the info that was given The Ram Air WS6 didn’t reappear back until 1997 … The GT was virtually a dumbed down version of it without the performance gain …. “ Firebird “ = V6 base model Formula / Trans am = V8 Saying “ Firebird Trans am “ is like saying “ V6 V8 “ ….
