HISTORY:

The first generation Firebirds had a characteristicCoke bottle styling. Unlike its cousin the Chevrolet Camaro, the Firebird's bumpers were integrated into the design of the front end.[5]The Firebird's rear "slit" taillights were inspired by thePontiac GTO. Both a two-doorhardtopand aconvertiblewere offered through the 1969 model year. Originally, the car was a "consolation prize" for Pontiac, who had wished to produce a two-seat sports car of its own design, based on the originalBansheeconcept car. However, GM feared such a vehicle would directly compete with Chevrolet'sCorvette, and the decision was made to give Pontiac a piece of the pony car market by having them share theF-bodyplatform withChevrolet.

All 1967–1968 400CI engines had throttle restrictors installed that blocked the carburetor's second barrel from opening all the way.[1]A "Ram Air" option was also available, providing functional hood scoops, higher flow heads with stronger valve springs, and a differentcamshaft. Power for the Ram Air package was the same as the conventional 400H.O., but the engine peaked at a higher, 5,200RPMs.

The 230CID engines were subsequently replaced in 1968 by theChevrolet 250cuin (4.1L)stroked 230CI engines, the first developing an increased 175hp (130kW) using a single-barrel carburetor, and the other the same 215hp with a four-barrel carburetor. Also for the 1968 model, the 326CID engine was replaced by thePontiac 350cuin (5.7L) V-8, which actually displaced 355cuin (5.8L), and produced 265hp (198kW) with a two-barrel carburetor. An "H.O." version of the 350CID with a revised cam was also offered starting in that year, which developed 320hp (240kW). Power output of the other engines was increased marginally.[1]

There was an additional Ram Air IV option for the 400CID engine during 1969, complementing the Ram Air III; these generated 345 and 335hp (257 and 250kW) respectively. The 350CID "H.O." engine was revised again with a different cam and cylinder heads resulting in 325hp (242kW). During 1969 a special 303cuin (5.0L) engine was designed forSCCAroad racing applications that was not available in production cars.[7]

The styling difference from the 1967 to the1968model was the addition ofFederally-mandated side marker lights: for the front of the car, the turn signals were made larger and extended to wrap around the front edges of the car, and on the rear, the Pontiac (V-shaped) Arrowhead logo was added to each side. The front doorvent-windowswere replaced with a single pane of glass and Astro Ventilation, a fresh-air-inlet system. The1969model received a majorfaceliftwith a new front end design but unlike its big brother the GTO, it did not have the Endura bumper. The instrument panel and steering wheel were revised. The ignition switch was moved from the dashboard to the steering column with the introduction of GM's new locking ignition switch/steering wheel.[1] Source: Wikipedia
