This week"s Dyno Blast video features a 4th gen Pontiac Firebird Trans Am powered by a 408 cubic inch stroker motor. We don"t get any other details on the engine build, but I would expect that it has header, exhaust, decent heads and a cam as someone going to the "trouble" to build a stroker motor likely added components that make sense for a high performance mill.The video is short and sweet, with the 4th gen Trams Am making one hard run on the rollers. When the video begins, the driver is already working up through the gears and after a few seconds of low RPM the driver hammers the throttle and lets the 408 stretch its legs.We don"t see the dyno sheet, but the comments indicate that this Firebird lays down 502 horsepower and 502 lb-ft of torque at the rear wheels.Crank up your speakers and enjoy!Join the LS1 crowd in the forum.>>Tags: 4th gen firebird, Dyno Blast, Dyno wednesday, Firebird, Pontiac, Trans Am
