this might be in the wrong forum, i got a 97 firebird with the y87 package, when i got it the engine was leaking fromw everywhere, i did what i could to save it but it started knocking like a motherf*****, it was a pushrod, metal all over the oil, so i junked the engine and had a local shop get me a junkyard engine for my car. that was a year ago now i learned i have a y87 bird, now what is a Y87- v6 upgade, the motor or the computer is tuned diff. any help would be great
:bowdown:
im pretty sure y-87 was just a sport suspension upgrade and dual tipped exhaust. And mayb different gears. The engine is the same as any other v6 fbody

suspension is no different.
All info can be found in the tech database at the top of the page
Someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Usually consists of dual exhaust, PS upgrade, body kit, diff gearing in the back and limited slip. No engine mod that I'm aware of. Nice to have the Y87 code on your door. I got all the stuff as an option on mine except the PS so no code on the door.
Let's flip a coin. Heads I get tail, Tails I get head.
good, so i didn't luck out when i got the other engine, thanks for all you help but how do i tell if i have a Auburn Limited Slip Differential (G80) or a Zexel-Torsen T-2 Limited Slip Differential (G80)

all right except the body kit; that was an RS thing. And as i understand, most RS's were Y87, so it's not far off.
