Picked up a clean 1 of 2 Hardtop Pontiac Formula Firehawk recently after adding up everything I'd need to buy just to get my old Camaro Z28 running.

Car is a M6 with 64,XXX miles

Mods are:

Engine:
Forged LS7 built by Rick @ Synergy
WCCH Ported and Milled Heads 12.2:1
MAMO MSD intake
NW 102 TB
FTP 104mm Lid
Chris1313 Ram Air
Mighty Mouse Extreme Catch Can
BTR 4 cam
Summit UDP ( most likely will be upgraded to an ATI )
SD Tuned
E85 Flex

Exhaust:
SE 1 7/8 LTs
SE True Duals

Suspension:
Mixture of UMI & BMR
LCAs + relocation brackets
Kmember
Adj Torque Arm
Adj PHB
BMR lowering Springs ( swapping over my Stranos )
Bilstein Shocks ( swapping to Konis )

Driveline:
Stock M6
Stock Hurst + short stick
McLEod RXT
Moser 9" Spool w/ 4.11s

Wheels:

My old 17x9, 17x11 Black ZR1s
Nitto front tires & 315 Nitto NT05Rs

Future plans are possibly getting a different cam, as well as upgraded heads, Koni 4/4s, Some nicer/lighter wheels and swapping my Strano springs on. The end goal for this car is a nice pro touring style 4th gen to complement the more drag race oriented direction the Camaro will be taking.

Car made 560 hp, 494tq, I hope in the future to push it to or over 600hp NA

Welcome back!

That's a sharp looking Formula FireHawk and sounds like an excellent car to work with!

Thank you, I actually wanted a Formula before I found my Z28.

it feels good to be back in a Fbody and I’m loving the M6.

Nice way to come back into the F world. What made you go for another 4th gen instead of going for an S550, Mopar or whatever else the little kids are into these days?

Thanks, I'll always love these cars for their simplicity. While the S550s are nice I didn't want a payment and for what they cost there's other cars I'd rather buy plus I know how to work on these cars whereas I'm not too familiar with the Ferd stuff . I was actually trying to buy my buddies Procharged C5Z but he sold it before I had enough saved to pick it up.


I'm also eyeing the UMI/Strano coilover setup as well as DSE's coilover setup but I'm leaning more towards the UMI since I'm not sure I want to put 4K worth of suspension into this car as I still want to buy a narrowed rear, wheels and better heads for this car before I start refocusing on the Camaro finally.
