Welcome from Belleville MI ! I just picked up a 1999 Firebird with a 3800, not a bad car. But the LS engines are much more fun !!!!

Here is a pic of the firebird.

LS would be nice..
But I am 16, paid for the car, did all my work with the help of my dad. So its not bad I guess.
Maybe my dads car makes up for the slowness of mine?
Not quite an LSX though a bit bigger Cubes

Default Welcome, Newbie
If you need any parts to turn your car into a LS1 car look me up I'm selling off all my spare parts from over the years of collecting and parting out LS1 cars.

Welcome again.

Welcome!

I am more or less the local 3800 guru in the greater Flint area, I do alot of custom turbo stuff, and a decent amount of tuning for all 3800's, fwd, rwd, whatever. These 3800's have IMO more potential than a LSx car does, dollar for dollar.

BTW MSD coils and 3800's do NOT mix, Alot of us 3800 guys have nothing but problems with them.
