1987 Trans Am

A new 5.7 liter (350 cid) V8 with Throttle Body Injection was the big news for 1987. Although rated at just 210 bhp (15 less than the Camaro due to a more restrictive intake), and only available with the four speed automatic transmission, the Engine's high torque rating and flexibility made it the best Engine ever yet installed in a 3rd generation Firebird. Furthermore, the 5.0 liter TPI Engine was now available with a manual transmission. To further improve the Firebird, Pontiac eliminated the S/E model, the CHMSL bump (it was now incorporated into the spoiler), and the pathetic four cylinder Engine. A new budget performance model, the Formula 305, joined the lineup as well as a new top of the line Trans Am called the GTA.
