Ok maybe it isnt a chicken, but thats what my GF calls it so Im just gonna use it. :p

Ok so I know its late in the game and I havent been really active here. Hell a lot of you guys probably don't even know me cept for some of the old fellas round here. But I got me an 85 firebird about a month ago and I planned on doing a bunch of mods to it. So here she is and the list of mods Im planning.

Looks like its in pretty good shape, minus the front bumper. As a KITT lover I'm automatically a Firebird lover. What engine does it have? 4cyl, 6 cyl, or 8 cyl?

You've got the 2.8L V6 if it's an 85. Good lookin' car, better shape than mine was in!

Yea I know the engine is a 2.8 originally but its the same block as the 3.2 and it was replaced by all 3.2 parts by the original owner such as pistons and whatnot to make it a 3.2.

BTW I just got this in the mail. Anyone care to guess what its used for? And yes it is related to my car. :roll:
