Welcome to the Michigan FBody Association website.
The Michigan FBody Association is a centralized website for FBody enthusiasts to discuss what's going on in the Michigan area. MiFbody.com was created to allow for an easy one-stop place to find out what's going on in Michigan as far as FBody events, to find out what clubs are available in your immediate area, and for an easy place to post classifieds for items you want to sell! Our goal was to create a more close-knit community of FBody enthusiasts in the state of Michigan, and to bring Camaro and Firebird enthusiasts alike together for some amazing FBody events!
The most important thing to know about the Michigan FBody Association is that we are NOT a club! The Michigan FBody Association is open to everyone, and is a community. Thus, we will have get togethers, casual cruises, events, and such like that, but this is not an exclusive club and it's 100% free to join this site! So what are you waiting for? Register now!

Carbed 350, 5 speed. Thats really all i know about it right
Now,
Thing runs great though. I can burn them 1st-3rd and chrip 4th.
As far as i know its all stock.
A) You couldn't get a 5 speed with a 350
B) You couldn't get a carbed 350 in 87
C) If it is an 87 T5 transmission, it isn't World Class. Careful with 3rd gear.
Nice! Doesnt look too bad from that picture at all, how much did you steal it for? Also these guys above are correct, its not stock its been played with but still none the less sounds like a fun car! That's exactly what mine will be (one day).
Its a damn good running car. Guy had 1600 on the window
My brother paid 1410 for it because the guy couldnt get it to run
Without it backfiring from the carb or the exhaust.
I opened the hood and it was alittle timing retard so i twisted the cap and advanced it
Back to 0° then to 5° and he hit the key and it fired right up,
Thats the thing i love about an older motor i can time a gen 1 motor by ear.
But it had a coolant leak from a hose when we bought it.
Reverse gear grinds when you try to go into it unless you jump from
first then go to reverse.
Someones been into it pretty good. But the floors under it
Are spotless. The body is in pretty decent shape apart
From the big amount of bondo i can tell is in the drivers door
Nothing leaks, no smoke, no crazy or odd sounds,
Just an all around good car that needs alittle tlc,
Im going out in a minute to take a few more for you guys,
Oh its also got a drum brake rear thats non posi. Which sucks
Oh and did i mention my brother gave me the car for my birthday coming up in april?
He doesnt know how to drive a stick and i talked him into buying it.
And he stated talking about selling it so i started hinting around
And he gave it to me lol.
Of course the wife isnt too happy with my brother because his
82 berlinettta has been here hogging the garage for about 7 days
And she wants my 93 z28 to be fixed. (Tensioner)
And giving me something thats going to keep me out there
All day/night isnt making her happy lol
Doing a LT1 rear brakes isn't exactly cheap, about $400 into mine after adapter brackets/calipers/rotors/pads/e-brake cable. I do have some rear calipers that need rebuilding that I'll part with for cheap.
Reverse gear doesn't have a syncro. Reverse grinds due to a worn idler gear, very common and the part is not too expensive. It's just a lot of work to get to it. I still go 1st to reverse on EVERY stick car I drive (habit) - but on T5's doing so slows down the counter shaft so you don't beat up the dogs on the idler gear when going into reverse.
