WS9 is just a person who takes a TA and make it look like a WS6. Thats all, WS9 as a RPO, i am not sure. I believe that is the TA option that makes it a TA from a formula(high rise spoiler)

WS9 is an aftermarket hood. I'm not aware of it as an option code. And non-WS6-->WS6= WS7

WS9 - model conversion, Formula

W66 - merchandised package, Formula

The WS9 code is what told the factory to make your car a Formula, the W66 is the code that told the factory what standard options to put in/on your car. In other words, the WS9 code told them to take the V6 out of the car and put the V8 in, while the W66 code told them to put the Formula decals and rims on the exterior and the standard interior items into the car that came on a Formula.

WS9 is basically the V8 bird option code - should be on both the Formula and the TA

What He said,

WS9 + W66 = Formula
WS9 + Y82 = Trans Am
