Let me know any questions you have I'm in the midst of doing this myself. I have an 86 Firebird TA, T5, 9' Aussie and stock 305(50k miles on it) if you need any of that. I just painted mine back to factory, put in a 10bolt, 383 stroker with about 500 horse and know all about the suspension needed to put that power down in the 3rd gens

still driving the T5 until it blows up(shortly).
