PCMforLESS tuned chip
160 degree thermostat
Hedman headers
Hedman Y pipe

Nice car! Its always good to see another 3rd gen owner on here. I'm from Indiana and just sold my 383SBC to help pay for the 408 LS engine I have in the works.

My first car was a 73 Formula 350, but I've always had more love for the third gens. My first third gen was my 87 GTA which was smashed up and ruined by other drivers after completion and now I have the 91 and I plan to keep it FOREVER for as long as I can keep other people from smashing into it.

Welcome. I have an 89 Formula and went the sbc route for 9 years. After a minirammed 383 I broke down and currently in the process of building up an LSX motor.
