      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
      Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

      1981 Thats when i got mine as well. Welcome to the site. The firebirds are really starting to poor in here. Is it because alot of the Pontiac sites are being taken over by guys mostly worried about what there cars are now worth and will never be driven hard again and which hose clamp was correct on an SD built in Oct vs Feb....

      Welcome aboard, Pierre. Don't worry about your English, I'm sure it's better than most of our French.

      I have installed the 87 IrocZ steering box in the begenning of the nineties . he is very good to compare whith the origine box but he is a little imprecise at center to compare whith new car . I would like to know if the new family of box (dse ats agr flamming ) make really improvement to compare whith the third f-body generation. if someone can comment or clarify , I would appreciate
