Hawks Motorsports<\/a> is known for building wild Firebirds<\/a>. Take for example their “Superhawk” project powered by a twin-turbo 408 ci LSx V8. The motor features an iron block, Trick Flow 235 cc heads, Hawks Motorsports custom forward-facing manifolds, and two Precision turbochargers. The motor is paired with a fuel system built to handle 900 horsepower and a Hawks Motorsports Level 2 T56 six-speed manual transmission. They improved the Firebird’s handling thanks to a BMR front suspension, Detroit Speed rear suspension, and a set of Forgeline WC3 wheels (18×10, 18×12). <\/p>\n
