Im sorry to inform you but in behalf of ls1tech. LT4 heads belong on a LT engine. It is IMPOSSIBLE for them to fit a ls1. All trans ams were made in canada, the canadian models have KPH guages and automatic headlight package. Considering the ls7 didnt come out to 2005ish.. Im sorry but you have been misinformed.

Default 380 hp WS6

If you look under the hood and check the components on that engine and compare side by side to a regular WS6 you will find this is a bogus deal.
Just like it hard to tell which WS6 has LS6 blocks or LS1 blocks

I really do not know. I am only relying on what I have been told. I do not know engines very well.
That was the reply I got...I told him that he should remove his listing until he has all the correct info instead of mis-representing his vehicle.

I have received a couple of emails regarding the engine on this car want to clarify a few things. I have relyed on emails and phone calls to try and figure out what the factory did to the car but may have been misinformed. I am not a person who has great knowledge of engines so please do not hold this against me. I do know that this is one of 25 special built cars but do not know exactly what was done to the motor to obtain the reported 375 horse power. If you are able to research this and figure out what was done to these 25 cars I would suggest you do so. I am not seeking a premium price in my auction so bid to win. Thank you for the emails and suggestions.
He just added this to the auction...but the funny thing is he still thinks that he has some kind of special "1 of 25" built car.

I think this guy is like a 10 year old kid listing this thing. He has no info on it, he's just going on some crap from some family member of the original owner.

only blackbirds came with that amount of power...I think he understands enough to know hes making up bullshit but uses the "I dont know engines very well" as an out. Plus if he doesnt know them very well then how does he know its got 375 hp...he needs to go and play with his shmeckel(jewish word for *****) some more

A lot of times scammers like this will either have another account, or maybe have someone close to them post something like this so some idiot see's that and thinks, wow this really is a rare car worth a fortune. This is bullshit if I've ever seen it. I was hoping to laugh from it but instead got pissed off because someone will say this trying to rip someone off

So far all I have found is that there were 1025 WS6 convertibles in 2000. No breakdown of color/tranny/interior color. Im sure there were more than 25 red ones as that was a popular color. It has the cd changer and traction control which were probably the only two options aside from the WS6 package. I suppose it might be possible that it is 1 of 25 built identical to it meaning....2000 red convertable WS6, auto, with ebony interior, cd changer, traction control, and a black top.

But that information is so hard to come by I highly doubt somebody with his knowledge of the car can obtain it.

Now hes gonna relist it with out the 375 hp claim

Advertised as a "one owner" car, then says in his reply to a question below that "that's what I was told by a relative of the original owner".

No doubt it's a legit WS6 vert, and probably a very nice one w/ low miles at that. However, NOT RARE and NOT 375HP. He's lost all credibility w/ that line of BS.

Funny thing is that anyone that would know anything on that car to bid on it would know that what he's saying is BS so why even start?

Also notice how none of our questions are posted at the bottom of the auction . . .

E bay is full of super high volume "rare" cars, as well as lightly optioned "loaded" cars.

So this guy doesn't have the documentation. Which is the RPO code denotes the 375 hp engine?

Still a nice car, but I can't see anyone paying a premium for it because the seller declared it "rare". Incorrect bs in an ad is annoying at best, or even fraudulent. But a buyer still needs to do his homework.

Those are the regular "AR9" leather seats, most commonly found in regular firebirds. The ones like in your car are the optional "AQ9" leather seats, most commonly found in most trans ams.
