Default Finnally got my car!!

Even though i havent yet sold the bronco, i picked up a 1996 Firebird Formula from the original owner, with only 64,000 miles and its in showroom condition. Every option, but its a GU2 car, so i got 2.73s it seems. Dark forest green with tan leather, will have pics up soon. About time i put some smack down on all the 5.0 mustangs running around Council bluffs

im think slp loudmouth exhaust, some headers, and a stall for my first mods. as the car is bone stock now. im debating between either throwing some 4:10s in the rear, or just leaving the 2:73's and getting say a 3200 stall. but the the car will be my daily driver.. any input would be nice. we only have an 1/8 mile up here, no 1/4 but i wont be at the track too much anyway..

sorry i typed so crap like, but im shaky with excitement. lol

Nice. Have fun with it. If you do go with gears, go with 3.73s. 4.10s are too much for a daily driven a4.

A change to a 3.42 or a 3.73 can be considered. You could still have a stall with either of those and still have fun.
