So I was going down 17-92 and some guy in a work truck pulls out to make a left, and bam. Totaled my 94 :( . Should be settling with the insurance company soon probably about 4k. Looking to get a 3.8 bird, anyone know of any for sale, and what should I be looking for with 4-5k in hand? Thanks!

your going to be stuck still with a 98- bird with that small amount of money. but i think you can find a good 96 97 with that kind of money -
I got my 95 for 5000 and it has a 3.4 but i guess the convertible makes it alot more expensive.95 camaro 3.4 < Jc whitney Exhaust, Chrome intake stage 2, Rk sport headers, msd dis-4, 160*thermo, Jet stage 2 chip, black racing stripes.<br /><br />91 Camaro rs 5.0 tbi gone but not forgotenComment

I bought my 99 M5 firebird last year for $8500 with 70000 miles on it. It is the rare color only made in 99, only 1500 total produced and half trans ams, mostly automatics, and some convertibles. I would estimate there were only 250 or so like mine produced. But the guy I bought it from didnt know that... :)
I would recommend buying from ebay, as long as you go and test drive it first, and your buying from a person instead of a dealer, just my experiences.M5, posi, headers-3\"hooker catback, spec2, alum DS, whisper lid & K&N, hurst, eagle 077s w/kumho supras, subframes, 3point stb, trans hatchComment

Would everyone here hate me if I went LT1? I figured if I am gonna get financed I might as well go with an LT1, I found a really nice Trans Am, 96 M6, with 92k on the clock. About 5-6k.94 Firebird 3.4 - RIP<br />97 Firebird 3.8 - In the worksComment

a sweet car is a sweet car...so its your choice man...but running brand new V8 times in a V6 is so much fun haha...i'd either get the LT1 and supercharge it...or just go with another 3.4 and get a turbo kit from Tiago or someone..i dunno if Shane is still selling his<b>12 SECOND DUAL STAGE DRY NITROUS POWERED 98 A4 V6 CAMARO<br /><a href=\"http://www.mysickcamaro.50megs.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.MySickCamaro.50megs.com</a><br />Best ET: 12.82@103<br />Best MPH: 104.7<br />Best 60\': 1.75 - Stock TC</b><br /> </font><blockquote><font size=\"1\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">quote:</font><hr /><font size=\"2\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">Originally posted by Shodown:<br /><strong>1DV6 runs 12\'s...enough said. </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size=\"2\" face=\"Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif\">Comment

Yeah, I'll have my check monday, so I'll let you guys know. Thanks for all the input. If it is a V6 it's gonna be a 3.8, and I'll turbo, if LT1, supercharger of course. One things for sure no more damn automatics! I'm not spending that much time/money to rebuild a slipping tranny again! No more tranny fluid soaked clothes for me! Thank again everyone!

Building the Tom Henry RS
Part 4: Suspension Mods, Tires, Wheels, Headers and other Cool Stuff.
By: Hib Halverson
At the end of Part Three, we changed the valvetrain of the 3.8-liter V6 in the Tom Henry RS. We installed new, Yella Terra "Ultralite" 1.8:1, aluminum roller rocker arms, Katech valve springs and Katech titanium retainers on our 3800 Series II V6.
Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...02-07-2020, 11:30 PM
