I drove this car all the way from Yucca Valley California to Jacksonville florida around march of 2007 and it was my daily for about 8 months then i got a caprice classic.
Its a 1980 Pontiac Sunbird and had a staright 4 also know as the iron duke before i started on it.
the org. miles of the motor were 64k that my family put on it because we are one owner and it was my great granmothers daily in cali for the last 8 years intill she passed.
we went to cali to get the sunbird and our 1955 chevy 150 two door and rebuilt the chevy first and now its the birds turn
my org. plans were to get a 4.3 chevy small block v6 motor out of a astrovan and just build the motor to with stand the power of a t4/t5 turbo at about 12 pounds of boost
or i could fully build it and just go balls to the wall at 24 pounds but im not sure yet
i recently came up with the idea of a stroker motor in it because the power to weight ratio would be incredible
so the first thing that came to mind was a 383 stroker
i really wanna boost what ever motor i do end up with so if i boost a 383 its going to be a very very exciting ride in the sunbird
i am going to pretty much do everything in the car diffrent then anything it has now
for instance i plan to mini tub it with some 12inch slicks in the back and to get a more up to date look im going to put 17's in the back and 15's in the front
ill probley have to get a ford 8.8 rearend to hold up to the power i want and im going to slam the car to the ground to where the tires will tuck just right
if all goes according to my plans in my head lol this should be a very nice and different type of car and for me to just be 17 i still have pletny of time to get this car done
