Did he do an engine swap cause '96 Firebirds didn't come with LS1s.

^^+1

If he's an LT1, which is what I suspect, with all the mods you're talking about doing you'll destroy him. They only made about 275hp to the flywheel. LS1's weren't available in the Firebird until 98 i believe.

Just with the 4.10's and the driver mod you'll have him. But with the exhaust you'll definitely have him. With the spray you're putting bus lengths.
