This is the most brutal third-generation Pontiac Firebird I have ever seen. The Trans Am is owned by Paul Arvid Blytt in Bergen, Norway and has had many different engines over the years. The latest one is a 540ci Donovan Engineering V8 with Dart heads, Cailles crank, JE pistons, and a ProCharger supercharger.
