Re: Y87 Package

The Y87 3800 V6 Performance Package upgraded the vehicle with Zexel-Torsen posi-traction differential (same differential used on V8 models), a dual outlet muffler, a quicker 14.4:1steering ratio (same ratio as V8 models), 235/55-16 tires. The Y87 package also gave automatic cars 3.42 rear gears, whereas the manual cars but kept the 3.23 rear gears.

Re: Y87 Package

Ohh, gotcha. I thought you were originally asking about the Y87 because your car came with that package. I assumed yours was since it has the ground affects kit and dual exhaust already.

Re: Y87 Package

Ah, you must have the W68 performace package. It's a step below the Y87, comes with just the ground effects and dual exhaust.

Re: Y87 Package

The w68 wasnt a performance package. Its just the appearance package which is JUST the little "body kit" on the sides, front and rear

Re: Y87 Package

But it is semi-performance.. because the W68's do come with the dual exhaust setup that you've got. At least every W68 I've seen at least.

Nah, the base model Firebirds only came with one side outlet exhaust. Not too sure about the gears.. Possibly special ordered? Or shoot, maybe the factory had a mixup or something. That ones over my head.

Not really sure, that's just weird. Only thing I can think of is it was specially ordered with the 3.42's.. But if you absolutely want to be sure that it does have those gears you gotta open her up and see.
