  • FOR SALE: 83 Trans Am

    Well the time has come to sell the third gen. I found a really nice 02 Z28 and it would help if I can sell the ta.

    Black and gold with a tan leather interior. I have the build sheet for the car. I have had this car since I was in high school and have done a ton of stuff to it. The only stock drive train part is the drive shaft (I replaced the U joints).

    It has a 87 Chevy 350 that was bored .030 over.
    Speed Pro hyper-eutectic pistons yielding about 10.5:1 compression.
    Comp cams XR276HR 502/510 lift hydraulic roller cam(I have cam card).
    Scat I beam rods
    Moroso windage tray
    Trickflow hardened pushrods
    Summit 1.5 roller rockers
    Comp springs to match the cam
    Dart Iron Eagle Platinum 200cc heads with 2.02 intake 1.60 exhaust
    Holley Stealth Ram intake with BBK twin 58mm throttle body
    All MSD ignition including 6AL ignition box
    Cloyes dual roller timing chain
    Melling high volume oil pump
    Half Serpentine system

    It has a F.A.S.T. fuel injection system.
    All block work was done by performance engineering in Jenison, MI and I have all receipts showing magnaflux and sonic testing work done.

    I had the 700r4 upgraded to a '87 input spline with a 13 vein? oil pump and all the other performance mods(shift kit etc) and it shifts very firm. I have the receipt for that as well.

    The rear end is a stock ten bolt with Moser axles, Eaton posi, 3.73 gears, I rebuilt the rear end (bearings, seals, and crush sleeve) when I put the axles and posi in and welded the tubes to the housing. It has a Summit aluminum cover with the bearing cap support studs.

    On the inside I have a B&M megashifter, autometer phantom gauges for oil psi, trans temp, and water temp, and Sony head unit with speakers and a small amplifier driving the rear 6 x 9s. The speakers are pioneer and infinity in the front.

    Over all the car is in pretty good shape there is a little rust on the passenger side door at the bottom but overall the car is pretty clean. It could use a paint job to be perfect.

    I also put the formula wheels on it with new Hankook Ventus tires(they have 10,000 miles on them at the most).
    The body has Spohn subframe connectors, tubular lower control arms, I added the wonder bar front steering brace, poly trans and engine mounts, and poly sway bar bushings. I also added an electric fan for the radiator.

    I have most of the receipts for the major purchases as well as almost all engine parts. When I bought the car I did replace most of the components that wear out over the life of the car including, rotors, pads, drums, shoes, ball joints, tie rod ends, wheel bearings, shocks (it has KYB front struts), and front brake hoses etc. The car has dual exhaust exiting just under the rear axle with dynomax bullets mufflers. The car is loud and fast. The engine was dyno'd and made 407hp @ 5800 and 404 ft-lbs of torque @ 4500 I have the dyno sheet. The car has run a best of 12.95 @ 109.

    Looking to get $6000. It pains me to say this but I most likely have around three times that into this car.

    I am open to offers and I am sure I missed something so if you have any questions or would like more pictures just let me know. I can be reached at 810 304 7921.

    More pictures can be seen at http://s27.photobucket.com/albums/c168/1bad83ta/

    I know there are a few people on here that have seen the car in person and have ridden in it that could vouch for the car.

    Oh and it also has a walbro 255lph fuel pump, fluidampr harmonic dampener, stainless AN lines going to and from the fuel rails, accel 30lb/hr injectors, 2500 stall and K&N air filter. I have always changed the fluids every season even if I don't drive the car. It has a new battery since a few weeks ago.

    Oh and um a harwood fiberglass 3" bolt on cowl hood. I have no idea how I forgot about that. "DOH"

            Bump price drop to $6000 and I edited the first post to make it a tiny bit easier to read. I have also since replaced that crappy chrome alternator bracket with the aluminum adjustable bracket.

                  hmm ok. I didn't mean to have the question mark as part of the title, it was the ending of the sentence.

                          Super sad today, I had to move the T/A out into the driveway. I'm already paranoid that someone is going to try and rip some shit off. She needs a good home.
