1987 Trans Am 355ci TPI first drive...

This is a short vid of my 87 Trans Am after I finally got the engine running right. Before it would not idle but I figured out I had the valve spring rocker arms tightened too tight. It is a 355ci small block chevy with crappy truck heads along with a LT1 cam and a Tuned Port Injection intake manifold. Exhaust is Flowmaster, but I do not know what series. When the car is near the phone/camera, you can hear the loud hissing coming from the engine sucking in all that air! This is the first drive since I removed the 305 so I am still getting used to the pedal with power! The smoke is from the injectors running a bit rich since I had the fuel pressure turned up a bit high. This is also a good vid to see my sequential tailights!

@MexicanG90:

Damn, that sucks to hear man. What engine do you have in it now? Thats what I'm afraid of on my T/A. I'm sure any day now I'm going to blow the rear end and the tranny, so I'm going to start saving up now for when it does... I don't think I've seen your Mustang yet, got any pics? You can just send them to my phone if you can't post them online...

@Domman56: Thanks! its the new K&N Rhino-RamAir special, not even on the market yet! hahaha
