Bad-assed 1988 Firebird Trans Am GTA PART TWO

This is my buddies 1988 GTA. This is a cold start video. It has a 434 Shafiroff motor, Brodix Heads, new Victor E intake and nitrous. Runs 6.55 in 1/8th at 107mph and 10.20s's on the spray at 132mph in the 1/4. Hoping for high 9s! All of these times are on 275/60/15 Hoosier drag radials. Unreal!

Maybe its because its thru a full exhaust but this sounds nothin in comparison to the 434 shafiroff motor in the copper colored camaro thats on here odd if you ask me and if you are going to spend the money on a shafiroff motor why the hell did you go back with the efi when he has them dyno tuned with the carbs? dumb ass move if you ask me which you didnt but still

@Willmont85 Just because its a 434 shafiroff motor doesnt mean its going to sound like every other 434 shafiroff motor. Use your meat-head! And I definitely dont agree with your carb statement....just shows ignorance. Who says that the motor was even dyno tuned by shafiroff?

[LightningBlueeyez]

Mine sounds better...

[Justinfloogie]

doubt its faster though!

[chubz51]

[Justinfloogie]

Wait, what? This car was fuel injected right from the factory.....bro

he knows whats important. $80 worth of black DP40 sealer primer, and $6,000+ under the hood.

@keith91z28 I agree with you I have the 84 trans am with a 383 stroker built 700r4 tranny and I replaced the rear with 3.73 rear I have 4 buddies of mine that all do different stuff like mechanics exterior paint interior fabric stuff. I have not done anything to my car myself besides black out my tailights that does not mean I am any less in love with the building of cars my friends love working on my vehicle and we all take pride in it i wish i knew how to work on my car but I dont have time

[brandonsjsj]

Carbs are more efficient at mixing air to fuel at wide open throttle, true story. Do u have a trans brake

[StreetLethalRacing]

Sounds awesome!

[Sasunarulove]

You got a better camera!! YES!!

[thunderup86]

very nice I have a 383 stroker with 700r4 (built) tranny and a 3.73 rear I only have the edelbrock stroker and hooker supercomp headers in mine and Im pushing high 11's at 104mph off the bottle

@nzoucha1 I agree as I have built my own cars before but I disagree as well that you can have pride even if you build it. Not everyone knows how to put a car together. Just because you dont know how to mechanically work on a car doesnt mean your any less of an enthusiast. Some ppl dont have time to learn how to work on a car properly but they can still like a certain car and be an enthusiast just like me or anyone else who works on their car.

@nzoucha1 i agree! me and my dad built our 83 ourselves EVERYTHNG was done by us, hell we even mounted the tires on the rims with no machine lol built not bought!

[nzoucha1]

if you dont build your own motor then how can you be proud of it?? theres no pride in having someone elses work under the hood no matter how much it costs. just cuz people can slap on a new air filter and a nice shiny chrome tip does not make them a mechanic. and im not specifically refuring to this car.
