Two, a 350 and 400, of the fabulous 5 in verdero green showed up at the same cruise in. So, I have heard about this guy for about a year and actually been called his name because there are not too many firebirds around here. Mine is on the right. We thought it was pretty interesting. Got lots of thumbs up. Two firebirds is rare, but two original verdero greens in same place at same time priceless. His even still had original and uncracked deluxe steering wheel and original drivetrain.

Robert, I noticed the intake and exhaust rockers are not the same, what's the scoop. More lift on exhaust? Are they different brands? I've tried to upload a couple pics of my car but apparently they have too many bits or pieces ...won't work. I've tried to get them smaller. I hope they end up big enough to see.

Nice looking car Al. Those poli-locks look long. You must be running some pretty tall valve covers. My Exhaust are Harland Sharp 1.5s. Intakes are 1.6 stainless steel ProComp brand just to give it a little more opportunity to fill the cylinders. The exhausts flow well enough they don't need the extra help.

I have no booster but I did put a small ding in the driver's side cover hitting the wiper motor while installing the engine. Can't notice it enough to warrant replacing it.

I went years without one. My wife claimed the side with the electric door opener right after we signed the mortgage, I can just squeeze by the front of the car and the work bench if I suck in my gut. The wife's Blazer and the bike go out when I work on the car so I can angle it in.
