I believe the WS9 is simply the code for the conversion to the 'Trans Am' from the 'Formula' package.
(Others, feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, ...)

I'm guessing you did NOT find the WS6 then?!?

WS7 is those who put a WS6 hood on their regular T/A out of respect for the true WS6 owners. The WS9 code is for the V8 T/A over the V6 Firebird (or something like that). Right after the WS9 code should be a WS6 code if its a true WS6.

actually my friend has an 82 ws7, and its exaclty the same as the ws6 except pontiac ran out of 4 wheel disk brakes so they called it the ws7 package, so its pretty much the same, but they are only in early 3rd gens i believe
