1971 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Tribute
1971 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Tribute – 455 V8, 4-Speed & Modern Muscle!
This 1971 Firebird Trans Am Tribute brings serious Pontiac attitude, combining the raw muscle of a built 455ci V8 with aggressive Trans Am styling, modern performance upgrades, and a show-ready stance. It’s a stunning blend of retro cool and pro-touring capability that begs to be driven.
Heart of a Warrior – Built 455 V8
Under the iconic Shaker hood lies a roaring 455ci Pontiac V8, tastefully upgraded for power and reliability:
- Ported 6X Heads
- Comp Cams Hydraulic Roller Cam
- Hooker Long Tube Headers
- Full 3” Exhaust
- Full MSD Ignition
- Aluminum Radiator
The engine has approx. 5K miles since rebuild, and it hits all the right notes, both sonically and performance-wise.
Mated to a Richmond Super T10 4-speed manual transmission with a McLeod clutch and flywheel, this Firebird is a driver’s car through and through. Power gets planted with confidence thanks to subframe connectors and front & rear sway bars.
Wilwood Stopping Power
Bringing all that muscle to a halt is a Wilwood 4-wheel disc brake system, featuring:
- 6-piston calipers up front
- 4-piston calipers out back
- Drilled & slotted rotors
Smooth, controlled, and built for real-world performance or weekend canyon carving.
Vintage Soul with a Pro-Touring Twist
