[lozantus82]

This swap is flawless!!!!! I would kill to have this combo in my 89 camaro!!!! F-Bodys are one of a kind!!!! Dam haters, you guys are just pussies that want to hate on this badass Formula! Hawks is the best F-Body Supplier PERIOD!!!!!!!!!!!

[waterkeeper03]

Looks hot bro.. nice job

[alipontiac]

PERFECT JOB.

[nutahz]

can hear the super charger sad face on that piece of shit

[Cookiemunstr420]

@nutahz Peice of shit? Go crawl back in your hole

[firebirdman87]

i have a 87 formula with a 350 firebirds are the shit

[tobi3098]

im planning on getting a 98 firebird soon but here goes a stupid question

is it mainly for racing than late night weekend joyriding

[REDNECKBOYPJ]

my dad has a 98 its bad ass with that LS1

[HRVAT1975]

Is that carpet in the car from Hawks?

[bluetopaz1205]

Auto=Consecutive ET

Stick=Fun

...imo

[jlyons18]

Im guessing its stock heads and cam with just a 1200 maggie?

[recniabsal]

Those numbers did not impress me. I was looking forward to something around 650 plus..... And you can't even hear the whine of the Roots. Might as well have gone procharger if you didn't want the whine.

[nutahz]

sure know how to waste money

[MarathonPRG]

gavin its a t56

[warmachine1983]

Formula 346 FTW!

[85fbird]

what size were the rims and did you have to cut anything to make it work on front or back?

[TheMiles302]

@GavinSpenceR18 who cares! its a bad ass bird that'll shit on anything :)

[1981qrycher]

@GavinSpenceR18 -- I removed my comments. No need to spam this guy's badass vid with nonsense.

[rosqui100]

the song is:Thunderstruck - AC/DC

[117spaceman]

[MrZepeda33]

[dacraze1]

LOOKS GREAT

[01camarosspower]

Glad I could "fix" this one for hawks!

[JennPaige64]

good video ,, i get the hint , its  hawks performance

[jamcousi9]

Well its about time somebody posted a third gen Formula worth talking about!

[suckithardnfast]

Wow! That looks awesome. Sounds great too.

[steelcityracer1320]

Real nice car man

[aqualordx93]

what brand of interior seats are those?

[bigcityk]

@aqualordx93 Corbeau... then had had them recovered in a two tone pattern.

[xXMxExGxAxDxExTxHXx]

@aqualordx93 as opposed to exterior seats? =p lol

[jasonosborne74]

what kind of trans is that?

[mattingly50187]

@jasonosborne74 According to GM High Tech Performance magazine it has a stock t-56 6 speed transmission but does have a Spec Stage 4+ clutch

[bigcityk]

@mattingly50187 clutch went out a while back, now has a spec super twin, t56 was also rebuilt. Car will have a new motor soon. lsx376, upgrading to the tvs2300 blower also.

[mattingly50187]

@bigcityk sweet, the set up was bad ass and after the new motor and bigger blower its goin to be insane as a street car

[mattingly50187]

@bigcityk i think a 2.8L or 3.6L Kenne Bell twin screw wouldnt look to bad on top of the LSX376.

[bigcityk]

@jasonosborne74  T56

[Jay42580]

i was wondering if the pics of the charger up close were different motors? in one pic u see the coils on the head cover, then in like the next few pics you see nice new edelbrock one's then in the next pic you see what looks like sanded ones? were those just cover that go over the coils or what????

[TheLT1driver]

how much did the whole swap cost (excluding the supercharger)??

[feanforbeans]

sick car man

[PlatniumProductions]

my dream car right here

[lamiac2411]

Fuck! I wish I could just go blow this kind of $ on a conversion! NICE!!!!

[rosscoe01]

Wooooow!!!! :) Nice car bro

[toxicgrape1234]

must be nice to blow 30 grand

[firechicken76]

@toxicgrape1234 id rather have that than a new camaro.

[toxicgrape1234]

@firechicken76

No arguement there.

[cjwyhs]

Didn't I see this car friday night at the Home Depot in Pearland? I took several photos of it. Awesome car.

[EngagingDarkness]

This is a fucking beauty. Jesus i wish i had the time & money to work on mine, i have pretty much the same make and model. 89' v8 350 Formula stock. Just no time to work on it, just gets me to work and back.

[JPARKERZ28]

nice man... like the dyno chart this is something those honda guys fail to understand. a nice flat powerband making power through every rpm, not any of those ice cicle powerbands there boosted v-tek shit has

[rockyghfdet2000]

Ha, one sick Bird!!!!! love it.

[theebestever]

nice one muffler

[bhj1977]

The 91-92 body style would've looked better in black with those rims.

[twistedma1245]

if you dont mind me asking how much did all that cost? just curious

[kraden18]

sweet car but i have to ask why didnt u get some sexy ass duel exhaust??

[IRONSEAN7]

@kraden18 the way the 3rd gen Fbody is setup underside, there isnt much room for dual exh,,,, the are setup where the exh flows down one side of the car, i had a true dual setup on mine 13 years ago on a SLUG of a 350 making like 47hp, lol,,, i forget who made the exh but it was ugly, the two pipes were came out side by side on one side of the car, its a lot CHEAPER and just as efficient to run one big single,,, stock these cars look like dual exh cars, but really have a 1 in to two setup

[kraden18]

@IRONSEAN7 yeah man i hear ya regardless car is sick lol. post some vids of what she can do :D

[firechicken76]

lllooots of money into this car!!

[willymywonka]

I'm taking my 95 into hawks for a heads/cam swap during deployment. How much was this entire setup with rearend and brakes too. Sick car it's the one that brought me to hawks in the first time.

[FormulaZR1]

Sweet car man. Saw your car at Tipp City last month.

[bigcityk]

@FormulaZR1

[krzfly]

[Efresh214]

[kylebucuk]

I was thinking about getting a new car, but my third gen roots are calling to me and i think i might have to do a crazy third gen build. not sure if i want to do a 500whp TPI or LSx.... oh the choices

[firechicken76]

@kylebucuk 500hp tpi? Id like to see that...

[jlubez]

[1gbayfisher]

Wow, this has to be one of the best sounding f-bodies on the planet! THAT TONE!!!!

Did someone photshop that dyno chart?

holy smokes, torque curve is so flat, thing would be a crazy street rocket.

Excuse me as i go change my boxers also!

[meatman3042]

I want you guys to restore my 1988 GTA, from the ground up. Interested????

[mundtmas000]

brb need to go change my boxers...I think I jizzed myself dry

[CavesONE]

wow!... the sound of that exhaust made my jaw drop!...

[pyrows666]

This is the insparation for why i am about to spend money on my car!!! im going LS1 twin turbo.. Thanks!!!!!

[Stevenhiggles]

Do you guys have anything for a 3.4 v6? I'm getting another camaro and swapping out the ls1 or lt1, which ever 4th gen I get with a ls3. But thats far off. Is there a turbo kit for the engine or does one have to be built, and I know its a v6 but I just dont want to do a swap on this car.

[firechicken76]

oh, also my supercharger is a radix truck supercharger, ill probably be ordering a ram air hood II from you guys soon for hood clearance.

[firechicken76]

could you tell me more about what you did to the engine? injectors, pulley, bolt ons, cam etc? Ive got an 88 gta that has an ls1 swapped into it and im magnacharging it, and would like to put out similar numbers. ive got your hawks long tubes, no cats, loudmouth ex. shooting for 500rwhp.

[ninerrulz]

Nice rebuild

[jrranda]

Texas?! thats a long way away...

Is that the 3.5" or 4" mufflex catback?

[Scwoodsy]

4" with a Magnaflow race muffler.

[50ic]

@Scwoodsy hey man great looking car. looks like you got the perfect fit in the rear wheels. i was wondering what size they may be ? from one 3rd gen formula owner to another ha

[andrewsuzukirider]

@Scwoodsy how much did all that cost you?

[RicerEater1978]

@Scwoodsy how much does a conversion like this run?



[PeraltaEspinoza89]

FUCKIN SICK! man i wish i can doo all that to my 73 RS/Z28

[doubleapro81]

I'd love to be there the day some honda pulls up on you. LoL

[quadstar90]
