In all honesty alot of the Demon 340 will stay. The goal is to make a baby out of the two, everyone will have an opinion on what that should look like or have and thats why I am looking forward to hearing responses. Im not investing $5,000 going from my original 4bbl edlebrock to six pack parts thats obsurd even though i would like to its not finically practical until they reproduce the intake again. Like i said adding the components from the T/A to the already existing performance styling and mechanical performance the Demon 340 currently has is the goal. I like to hear others opinions on what it should have or not have because it may give me a different perspective or idea to help build or change my thoughts. In my opinion the car should do what the initials are for “Trans Am”. The car should have the components capable of Trans Am racing. The challenge T/A is the representation of that in a street trim option from the factory. So using that as reference the main options i outlined at the beginning of the post are those things needed.
In my opinion so far what is needed to make that T/A baby is
Exterior
1.Current Demon dual scoop hood blacked out
2.Hood pins
3.T/A side stripes
4.Current Demon Rear Go Wing black
5. Current Demon 340 fender decal and decklid decal
6.Chin Spoiler
Performance components
1.340 4bbl motor with 2.02 port heads as highest performance option as part the Demon 340 model
2.A833 4 Speed as part of current 340 Demon switching from ball shifter to an A body pistol grip shifter as the challenger T/A had.
3.Large front and rear sway bars
4.heavy duty shocks
5.T/A Side exit exhaust
6.Hiperformance manifolds
7.power disc brakes
8.8-3/4 suregrip 3.55 which demon 340 has which is same as T/A
9.Fast ratio power steering box
