Cleanest third gen firebird ever

Just wanted to share. Changed fuel injectors and tuneup on this one the other day. Cleanest one I've ever seen in person and only 16.000 original miles. Not mine but a customer's.

Re: Cleanest third gen firebird ever

Nice TA! I don't mean to thread jack. In the last pic of the motor, what is that black box in the bottom left corner next to the radiator cap? The reason I'm asking is because my 87 came with the stock air intake assembly missing(PO used some weird dryer hose).

Re: Cleanest third gen firebird ever

It's alwasy cool to see a stock one in good shape, you get used to seeing them trashed or modded and forget they can be nice stock

It's the box that houses the air filter.

Re: Cleanest third gen firebird ever

Is this in Middle GA by any chance? I saw one at the Robins Aviation Museum a few months ago that looked very similar to that one. Really caught my eye.

Re: Cleanest third gen firebird ever

Very nice! Always loved that color combo; blue or red with silver was also nice. I miss my base model Trans Am.

16K miles-that thing is still new!

Re: Cleanest third gen firebird ever

That's a beauty, thanks for sharing.

Just did an injector job on my Camaro, car runs great now, along w/ new diz and plug wires ... amazingly smooth.

They were/are some great running engines when stock. Very reliable too for the most part. Seen plenty of them go 200k+.
