Default 2013 PHR Muscle Car of the Year heads to Auction

The Schwartz Performance 1981 Trans Am, winner of the 2013 Popular Hot Rodding Muscle Car of the Year, is going on the auction block! The 1,000 horsepower, twin turbo’d LS9 Pontiac will be rolling onto the Barrett-Jackson auction block on Friday, January 16th in Scottsdale, Arizona – at NO RESERVE! You could own this incredible car for a fraction of the build cost!



The team at Schwartz Performance is responsible for the entire build of the original turbo T/A. The foundation for the Trans Am is one of the company’s elite G-Machine full frames. This chassis provides the F-body the strength needed to harness the twin turbo LS9 powerplant - which has produced a ‘mild’ 1,041.55-horsepower at the rear wheels.

For details on the Trans Am and auction, follow to T/A Auction.

Motor looks like a 4in stroked LS3. LS9 and LSA motors had superchargers on top.

Which if I'm not mistaken, he removed and added twin turbos.

It's an LS9 block & heads, custom built 6.9L engine. Not much stock about the engine
