i went with one of my friends to test drive a 95 formula. when we got in i noticed the 110 mile an hour speedometer? Is this right? It seemed to be missing some formula decals, but had other ones in places i don't normally see them. is it possible it was an engine swap? or are they supposed to have that low of speedometers.

chances are its a swap if the decals are all in the wrong spae and 110mph speedo. Did it feel like a LT1?<a href=\"http://bellsouthpwp.net/d/e/defrag/sig.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">1997 Firebird V6-Y87/W68</a> -

dude, it probably is a formula. they can come with a 110 speedo. it means it has an auto, 2.73's, and 235/55/16 h rated tires. we had a '95 z28 the same way. these are the ones that run mid high 14's. i don't know why they come like that, it is ghey. also 115mph governor.96 wht. firebird 5sd. rk sport headers,3in.catco, spintech catback,CAI,FRA,3.42/lsd 180*t-stat, centerforce dual friction clutch, ls1 driveshaft, polyurethane trans. mount.<br />01 blk. z28 m6, borla exht, lid, k<br />+n, sfc., chrome 18in. y2k c5 wheels.Comment

the speedometer is the exact same as in my car, but the tach yellow is at 5250 in stead of 5500 like mine.New Car: 2004 GTP Comp G (Test Vehicle) 13.936@99.32 <br />Mods: Cylinder Filter,No Mufflers, 3.3\" <br />Old Car: 2000 Formula 13.124 @ 106.01 with 2.73\'s<br />Other Car: 1993 Firebird 16.1@83Comment
