its a firebird Formula... with WS6 hood... the WS6 was only a package available with the Trans Am... unless gray corrects me But i'm pretty sure.

You could get a WS6 on the formula but they are incredibly rare.
Technically it isn't a firebird formula according to the vin (Actually a very symantical arguement). The Formula and Trans Am are the V8 pontiac fbodies. Firebird is the official GM designation given to the v6. If it says firebird anywhere on the car it's a v6.
The tell tale on a ta is a raised spoiler, ta badging, and fog lights that are in the center. That would definitly be a v8.
A firebird and a formula look identical except the formula has a v8. Its rarer then the TA but also a cheaper car when it comes to amenities.
The WS6 was a package available on the formula and TA. Its a hood scoop (it goes all the way through but doesnt gain anything), a slightly less restricted exhaust (about 5 bhp), and a stiffer suspension (still standard fbody subpar fare).
The car in the picture should have anywhere from 310 to 325 bhp depending on which year 98-2002. My car had 310. Torque should be in the 340 range.
Now that Ive bored you with fbody facts.
