1999 trans am

Asked by Vboyer021 Aug 28, 2017 at 10:08 PM about the 1999 Pontiac Firebird

Question type: Car Customization

Thinking about putting a 1980 350 v8 into my 1999
Trans Am. It currently has a v6. Just wondering if
would fit or what modifications would I need to do

Sounds simple but it is not things like the strength of the transmission and running gear come into play with the added torque and power from a 350 vs your V6. Front suspension and brakes may also need changing depending on what your desired performance specs are.
