  • Vehicle Overview

    I purchased this Trans Am in 2010 for $500. Sold the 350 crate motor that was in it for $500 and installed a 406 Roller motor that my friend had sitting in his garage. I basically just dropped the motor in it so I could move the car. The car sat in my driveway for probably 8 years. I had just lost interest and wasn't interested in sinking a lot of money into it. I was more interested in trying to sell it. In 2019, after constant hounding from my best friend, I restarted the project. The motor is a forged and balanced 406 roller motor, ported and polished Dart2 cast iron heads, port matched intake manifold. At one time it was in a tubbed out S10 and posted times around 11 seconds. posted times of just under 11 sec with a 100hp shot of NOS. The suspension has been upgraded with Sphon Performance front and rear sway bars, panhard bar, Subframe connectors and rear lower control arms.
