Always loved the 4th gen TransAm... congrats on the purchase.

Just what 'work' is being done to miss 'spun bearing/blown gasket'?

408 stroker.. do eet.

That looks awesome!

Stew · 04-28-2012, 08:25 AM

Love those cars!

KMPrenger · 04-28-2012, 01:53 PM

Love these cars....this was THE car I wanted back in the day...and then the 5th gen came out and I fell in love with it lol.

But for what I paid for my new Camaro I could have had a perfectly well low mileage WS6 and some $ to spare.

Oh wells...no regrets here.

Gotta echo what most others have said. This was the best 4th gen F-body hands down.

dmginc · 04-30-2012, 12:18 PM

loved my 02 WS6...i'll have another one soon enough!

Just wanted to update. Most likely has a head gasket leak or warped head. Will be checking compression then ripping into the motor if tests confirm such.
