well been thinking here and it may go back to original . My wife was thinking of keeping this new one as a driver BUT she really likes her old T with a moonroof ...soo the 10k car will prob just go to sleep in a barn with the Shelby, GNX, and Melissa's Limited :biggrin:

crossover is goin in front of the motor .. should have more pics next week ..well providing we don't get burried with snow

Dan,
Crossover going across the top or bottom?
Have you ever heard of ATR headers for a GN with Champion heads fit in a TA if the heater box-A/C were removed?

you will have to notch the frame slightly on the pass side .. we are feeding the crossover under the front . I have a tubular K frame so there is lots of room :biggrin:

Dan,
If it makes a difference on the frame clearance, mine came with a PA brand tubular K member. Is the notching for the down pipe or the headers?

Thanks,
Marty

headers hit ... I have the PA one to

Razor,
Why would TA heads give you more room, or are you just messn'? Who's headers are you using?

Marty

 

[Grumpy]

Razor said TTA heads NOT ta heads :biggrin: that would be to easy !! plus the $$$ someone spent in the heads now as far as a challenge ...if I had half a brain I would ...ummm never mind .. I forgot what I was goin to say

Marty I never looked at them .. arn't they for Buicks ??? I can't see anyone making header's for TTA's

 

[Grumpy]

There's one on ebay that doesn't appear to be in too bad of condition http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1989...ewItemQQcategoryZ34198QQitemZ4607137917QQrdZ1

DAMMMMMMMM

Dan,
Help me out before I make a mistake, I was under the assumption that the Buick ATR headers with Champion heads would fit in a Trans Am as long as the heater box was gone. Don't think ATR ever made any for TA's So that is why I assumed the TA headers for a buick would also work since they are a log style on the pass. side (narrower ?) .

Hey Grumpy, was that IROC you posted pics of your car??

I met the owner of that car in N.H at a place called Camaro Heaven, I was picking up a rear for an IROC that I had, He was picking up some stock TPI runners. Nice guy talked to us for a little while about that car, I think it was an 85 with a Vortech S/C (Then?), also told us about a scary wreck he had with it. Real nice guy. I also saw him one day driving that car home from the track on the Jersey tpke, I was coming home from six flags, We were stuck in traffic and talked about the car a little bit then also.
