Didn't they build Firebird Firehawks in various forms for almost 10 years? A friend has an LT1 with the LT4 cam setup in a full sized '66 Impala and runs mid 13s right off the street. Great on gas too.

Milton Robison has the only 1992 Trans Am Firehawk convertible ever built. He ordered the car new as 1 of 3 Firehawks with the aluminum 366/375 hp engine.
