I promise there were NEVER any 403's in any 80 or 81 Firebird Trans Am. Even though this is not a Trans Am site just wanted to offer more info if you care. http://www.iwaynet.net/~gl&lisk/transam.html I dont know much but I know TA's Ive had 6 of them including a 1969 Trans Am, kicking myself in the A$$ daily for letting it go, sold it in 86 for 3400.00 now its worth about 30k!

I remember, that was why I ordered my 78 Trans Am from Texas as the Cali ones had the Olds 403". And no, I don't have it anymore either. Still have my 1972 Formula 400 that I got new though. mp
