So I have a 1999 firebird v6 and I wanted to have an electric Cutout for the exhaust so it will be louder but now always loud. Im not too good at it but I like to learn as it a great way to, I was planning hopefully to get the cutout between the cats and resonator so it would be a technical...

Hi, first post in this forum. Glad to be here among such avid Firebird fans. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has ever considered swapping a newer Camaro V6 engine into an F-Body? I suppose this isnt specifically just for 4th gen models, but 3rd and 2nd gens as well. . I just think that with as...

I have a 1999 white hardtop y87 5 speed car and i was wondering if it has any rarity. I can find how many y87s were built and how many 5 speed were built but not how many cars were built with both options. This is my first time posting on the forum and im 17 with my first car, please help me out.

Recently i've been thinking about getting rockers for my 99 v6. I've heard they add a bit of a lope which is mainly what i'm going for but any power increase is welcome. I've seen various kits (zzp mainly) but figured i should ask around so i don't accidentally smash one of my valves on the...

I bought a 2000 V6 last year, and have quickly fallen quite out of love with the sound and aftermarket support for the 3800 SII. I've recently had a couple friends get some of the newer RS Camaros with those LGX motors in them, and they honestly sound like a Lambo and a Skyline conceived a child...

So yesterday i was hanging out with a friend, and as we were going to leave, i tried to start my car and it would crank, but it wouldn't 'catch'. I kept trying for about 2 minutes and it still wouldn't start, but eventually it did, but ran VERY rough (i'll see if i can post a video clip). But i...

First off, i wasn't accelerating hard whatsoever, in fact probably more gentle than i usually do. But i was just driving home after shopping, and started to switch lanes, when all of the sudden my car essentially went down to 0 rpm on the tachometer for a split second. I thought it completely...

Hey, so i'm looking to get a bit more performance out of my V6, especially since it's a 4spd so its a bit slow to accelerate and get going after a stop, so i'd like to add a bit more kick to it. I'd rather it not be SUPER expensive but i'd be able to save up a few hundred probably. I've heard of...

Hello, I'm new here on this forum so if there is already a sticky for this please correct me not belittle. I have a 89 v6 5spd firebird, needs a new clutch. this is my first clutch job I've done on any of my vehicles, so I was hoping I could get some advice and pointers on what too do, what too...

I was wondering what can be done with a 2.8 to make it have more hp but I want to keep it N/A. I know my brother told me that I could port and polish the heads and also get some high comp pistons for it. He also said that I should get a different cam shaft and a better fuel injection system so...

Hi, Just bought a 98 3.8L Firebird for my daughter and it has been sitting for 2 years in the previous owners yard. It did start and I drove it home but has some lifter tick. I'm going to start by changing all the fluids, hoses, belts, tune up, etc. Anyone else have helpful input would be...
