Modified Trans Am start up !!

[ddi338]

nice

[MaximGhost]

In France, they must think you are crazy driving around in a loud beast like that ... very very nice! :)

[varflane]

Why, why, why do people like these underpowered late model T/A's. Get hold of a pre 1974 model, you get 3 times more power, a much better looking car - with metal bumpers, and 10 times more fun. This '77 -78 would be hard pushed to make 200 hp. A basic 1970 - 73 V8 will give you 300+, no road tax and mega cheap insurance in the U.K. Sorry just hate the late '70 Firebirds - without a ton of cash they are complete pants.

[ignaciojork]

for me this is better than Beethoven

[BigL513]

72 or later 350 heads, works well with the 403

[badslabber]

ever heard of water and a sponge?

[MrNokia455]

cool car, what was your track time?

I have a 79 Trans am with a stroked 403 made 570 hp on motor and 540 torque. I have a few vids.. ran at track with a T56 and 3.42 gears on street tires and ran a 8.2 with a 2.02 60 foot. I currently have a 2 .1/4” exhaust now, about to put the same exhaust you have just waiting on mufflers.

[green78999]

He's Very hungry..!

[pony74]

[itsfxckindavid]

Nice(:

I have the same question as DMAN.

I myself have an 81' trans am

[JCisSPAWN117]

these are supose to stay legit, not modified! why do americans ruin the classic ones

[jordtizzle]

@JCisSPAWN117 we make them we can do wut the fuck we want, plus he is in france

[JCisSPAWN117]

@jordtizzle duuude i was kidding lol it was a joke haha

[dman071279]

Could you tell me your rim size, tire size, and backspacing you are running? thanks

[3Frehley]

Der Klang, so lieblich...Grins....so muß ein Wagen klingen, alles andere kannste knicken....

[Raven0213]

Can't make a trans-am fuel injected.....just sounds wrong.

[makemehard2]

what kind of tires?

[Zlingpingvin]

Song is 5*, but the driver is full shit ...

[sinisterseven8]

sounds good nice setup

[norfolkdash9]

Wow, did you take the mufflers off?

[lostbuffalo]

those are not open pipes and are prolly not glasspacks either.My guess is the flowmaster crossflow muffler in the stock location or regular thrush type turbo mufflers.

[weiandblower]

That sounds amazing!! I am so sick of the same sounding stock trans ams by me.

[gnoff12]

simply orgasmic sound :P got a 2000 bird with the v6 but trying to hunt down a 77 not the easiest thing in sweden hehe "well if you whanna find one that actually works that is"

[singinwithangels]

that's sweet! I'm building the same engine right now with C heads also, but I'm using the Edelbrock RPM. It is getting close to running.

[bustedspleens]

beautyful car but wash it

[Napasponiki]

как блять трактор

[Xx44killerxX]

holy shit i had my headphones on full blast and it started up and scared the shit out of me!!!!

[01GPGT]

how hard was it to put the BB heads on the 403?

cool car though

[singinwithangels]

@01GPGT It's not too bad. you just half to drill you the head bolt holes from 7/16" to 1/2". that's all I had to do on mine.

[jrockdaman2]

im n love yes headers man

[scarv]

J'adore la belle musique des muscle cars... Très belle voiture.

[Megaloryan]

No microphone can honestly do justice to what these V8 beasts really sound like, but its still nice to have youtube, and a little bit of imagination. Boss ride :).

[stratcat70]

oooohhh yes ..... she,s fine!!!!!!!!!! thanks for posting your T/A, ilove the 2ND GEN T/a,S

[v8guvnor]

fuck, nice sound ticking over

[herkules666X]

sounds like cans beeing draged in the floor

[captainbirdseed1]

could have washed it

[kristin101909]

i have a question im 16 years old and im a girl and i like muscle cars for my first car i want a trans am or firebird im i wierd for that? please respond

[jabe54]

@kristin101909 No Trans Am's are kick ass!!!!!!!!!

[trenndo]

Nice sound ! but clean that car ! its durty

[Neckbonekat1029]

Great sound! Car needs a wash and some paint.

[paintandswim09]

wait, you have this car in france?

[tedthepunk]

I have a question, are the Mains on the block webbed? Thats what I was told and it was suggested to swap a olds 350 block in place of the 403. I personally love the Feel of the 403's Power.

[Morgandrag]

@tedthepunk

Yes they are but the bottom end will take 700+ hp with a full girdle

[QAZWSX19901413]

omg omg

i like the sound

i can hear it all day

[psykoflavof55]

at 0:48 i can see a white renault kangoo!!! renault in states? :s lol but your car it's really nice!!! muscle car are the best!!! ^^

[Morgandrag]

I'm from France :)

[MultiShooter123]

@Morgandrag Thats a beutiful car we got a 78 trans am

[topgun171]

i have the 403 v8 6.6 it sounds so good pushin 475hp its a beast

[oilfighter21]

makes me miss my firebird with the 403 in it, thing pushed 180mph

[MrTransAm1979]

[oilfighter21]

yup the only reason we had to stop was the accelorator cable snap on us, and we sat there for 3hrs before someone passed us

[happymark1805]

nice car

[muscle88cars]

good sound !

[wizyydemon]

الكلب

[BigDames28]

nice to see not everyone in the world is about 4 cylinder turbos :D, i have a 1977 firebird myself, good bids man keep it goin

[Morgandrag]

I also like 4 cylinders, they are just different ( but nothing can replace the sound of a big V8 )

My dad also has a Renault 5 alpine turbo and was thinking of buying a R5 turbo (both are 4 cylinder turbo) before buying the Trans Am but i'm happy now to have such a car sleeping in my garage :)

Thx for the comment !!

[gunhawk22]

How hard is it to find parts over in france?

[Morgandrag]

We buy all the parts in the states :)

[Navjo15]

haha heard that long sound with my start up

sounds awsome

[c0uchsl0uch]

how did you get a 403 to sound this way?

[MrTransAm1979]

headers

[Morgandrag]

@MrTransAm1979 No, the car had the stock headers at the time of the video :)

[tgardone]

That's the best sounding Trans Am I've ever heard......

Badass car

[heitard]

WASH ME !! =p

[rockford74]

Did u ever get any 1/4mile track times??

[Morgandrag]

No not yet (please read the description!!!)

[rockford74]

I saw what you said in the description but then I noticed the date you posted this videos was almost 2 years ago. I figured you had to go to the racetrack by now and maybe you just forgot to post the times. I am at the4 racetrack two times a week at least, there's no way I could go that long without going.. : )

[Morgandrag]

I live in France and the nearest race track is about 500 kms from my place :) + the car is still not finished yet

[Morgandrag]

I will be making new video's shortly ( the engine is getting a rebuild )

[Friedchicken80]

Probably best 1977 Trans Am on youtube.

[wasjunk]

best sounding 403 EVER

good rims u have there .....s200 American racing

[FirebirdKnight]

Damn what i wouldn't give to drive one of those :).

[coutts1993]

Got to love how it starts!!! Mine does that at school everyday. The first day I drove my ta, it always does that after sitting for a few hours. Everybody started to laugh, and then I blew everybodys eardrums with the uncorcked headers!!! Got to love it!!!!!!

[SuperTruck1]

Oh...my god! That thing sounds beautiful! My old man had the 403 ci in his old school Pontiac station wagon...wish he would ve kept it now!..lol. You have that thing in France?? Thats awesome...go smoke those little Fiats and Citroens...HA HA HA.

What kind of Exhaust??? Borla, Flowmaster???

[Morgandrag]

It's a 3 inch "pypes" exhaust with to street pro mufflers ( open headers is just to loud for the streets )

[jrsws6]

what exhuast do you have nice ta loves those years

[EHmasterjedi]

nice motor how about some water and a rag lol

[Morgandrag]

In the next video she will be clean :)

[McGueuze]

joooli ;)

[Josephlynearlpierce]

cool man. i just love trans ams.

[coutts1993]

Damn, didnt know a 403 could sound that good

[mobsterbillyjoe]

the dirt on it, looks actually kinda nice, and thoes wheels :)

[stoo1974]

flash automotive on usa ebay can sort you out a fuel injection set up. looking at one for my 462 pontiac. its auto mapping so can get 20mpg+ city driving

[tylerkb12]

Sounds great! Must be a really rare car in Europe! They are hard enough to find in good condition in the USA anymore. Those wheels that are on it in the video are beautiful, do you know what they are called?

[Morgandrag]

No sorry I don't know what the rims are called, they were on the car when my dad baught it.

They have been replaced by snowflakes now ( I will post a new video, with a good camera, when the engine is back from the machine shop ).

[drizzlwhite46]

dam i wish MY trans am sounded like that

[KILLGORE98]

they look like american racing daisy rims 2 me.

[niclovin89302]

american racing 200S

[uscar17]

miam ! beau son !!!

[derneuschooer]

clean it!!!

[izzycroptik]

Sounds kinda... TAME!?!?!?!?!?!

[Firedogg301]

Nice, but I'll bet your neighbors luuuuv- you! lol

[felicien]

My speakers!!!!

[rocker12347]

what exacly did you do to the engine?

[Morgandrag]

- 950 cfm holley fuel injection system

- "offenhauser" intake manifold

- "engle" camshaft

- "mondello" rockers

- "mondello" pushrods

- type C oldsmobile big block heads prepared by mondello

- forged "ross" pistons

- forged crankshaft

The list is very long ......

As this is my dad's car I hope I will have explained the best the car's specs (sorry for my bad english, I'm french)

[ok333]

fuel injection? conversion? how much is that for the 400ci? oh and that car is beastly. i dont know if im gonna get one though. still deciding.

[herbienbrian]

I agree almost blew mine to,your a lucky sob.

[Morgandrag]

yes, it is loud but the car has 2 "street pro" mufflers made by "pypes" =)

[herbienbrian]

my dad and me built a 468 chev big block with 3 inch one chamber exhauset and a real agressive cam,very lopey

[mambobro]

sounds like straight pipe. its cool, but i prefer some kind of exhaust system. lol that fucker almost blew out my speakers. if you like it loud, you got it. 5 stars.

[NATETHANASTYSNAKE]

hahaha i agree! it happened to me to

[jordanextreme]

Fawk xD

[lincolnmark8]

Nice!!!
