Well I ended up smashing the front end of the car up back in October. Been busy getting it fixed up again. Did a 98-02 nose swap. Just need to get the fenders and hood on, get some random parts and finish the wiring for the lights. Need a windsheild too.
Car is fixed and back to daily driver duty. Its kinda fun in the snow, haha! It helps though that this is the least snow I have ever seen in a MN winter. Under an inch, and it will be melting soon.
Anyways, besides the pain of bracket changes, paint and wiring changes it looks a heck of a lot better. Paint isnt a perfect match but its pretty close. You can see the difference however.
08' L76 6.0L 4X4 Chevy EXT.Cab LTZ Vortec MAX with Snug top cover, Dynomax exhaust,Hptuners& K&N intake
96' Camaro M5 to A4 conversion, alot of mods . GT35R Turbo full suspension. Built engine
To show torque delivered you have to go into your main display and add a peice of data to be collected. Right click on one of the cells and go into trans and it will be there.
On the conversation, I have about 315ftlbs at the max. And at 5250RPM where torque and hp are the same I have 297ftlbs which means 300hp to the flywheel on a stock l67 with exhaust and intake. Not bad! Not sure how accurate trans delivered torque is however.
A TA swap would have been great but I brought the car from totaled to great looking for under $1000. $250 for paint, $250 for bumper, $200 for fenders, hood, brackets and lights, $250 for windsheild, trim, and random parts.
Ive considered swapping to an LS1 lid. Gotta find one first though.
No, no, TA front is not all that. IMO the TA front design doesn't make sense nor look good. Base Firebird front looks way better and cleaner in design.
Very nice job. Definately get a lid and ram air kit now.

The base firebird looks so incomplete its not even funny.
If I ever bought a Firebird id do the whole WS6 swap asap.

It just comes down to a matter of taste. To me the TA doesn't flow right at the front end. You got those turn signal lights that doesn't make sense. I mean what the heck are those below it.. HOLES that leads no where. The base looks clean.
When I first bought mine (brand new) it was the best looking one from a line up of TA's, Camaros, and other Firebirds.

Too bad you went from the best styled front bumper to that crappy 98+ front.
