This 1978 Pontiac Trans Am came to the V8 Speed & Resto Shop more like a lame duck than a bird of fire, so our team went to work adding new rear gears, a 2004R overdrive transmission, a roller cam from COMP Cams, and a FAST EZ-2.0 EFI system for better driving manners.   The Pontiac 400 engine even received an unexpected refresh along the way.  

 

Some of the parts used in this upgrade:

F.A.S.T. - EZ EFI 2.0 Fuel Injection System

Royal Purple - Max ATF and Max Tuff Synthetic Assembly Lube

B & M - Torque Converter Lock-up Controller

Tanks Inc - Fuel Tank, HP Fuel Pump and Sending Unit

Shiftworks - Shifter Conversion Kit

COMP Cams - Roller Cam, Roller Lifters, Push Rods and Roller Rockers

Eastwood - High Temp Ceramic Engine Paint

K&N  - Air Filter
