Gen 3 or 4 Firebird to convert to Pontiac 400 with 3-speed auto.
For you guys who may have done this conversion before, which is 'easier' to do? the 3rd or 4th gen Firebird? I can find a decent car at a good price but is the cost and effort of putting traditional Pontiac power and drive line in the newer chassis just not worth it? I want to build a 10 sec car and I have the motor and many other needed parts on hand but 1st and 2nd gen cars are just too expensive.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
