Fixtures and Brackets are the same but the LENSES are somewhat different.
(I took the left foglamp out of the TTA to have the nicely shaped hole serve as
an airscoop....) And I think the Torx screws are the same as well, but
it's been a awhile and I seem to remember some discrepancy... but nothing a
good, inventive hot-rodder couldn't work out.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Jason- Really interesting stuff.<SPAN contentEditable=false

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Maybe Russ can accurately answer the following questions that I have:</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I heard that 1989 - 1990 Trans Am fog lights are interchangeable with
Sy/Ty's. True?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My '92 Ty is ser. # 184. It has a Black GMC logo on the grill, just like
earlier Sy's I've seen.</DIV>
<DIV>I note that my previous Ty #1732 that I bought new in '92, (and was
stolen from Freehold, NJ GMC's lot in '03 with 235k on speedo), had the
more common bright RED GMC logo on the grill. I assume then, that PAC
used- up whatever on the- shelf 1991 Sy GMC grill logos they had
and installed them on the early vintage '92
Ty's, before switching over to GMC's stock Red logo on the
grill later midstream in 1992 production. True? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Ty Trivia question: At what 1992 Typhoon ser. # did the GMC grill logo
color switchover occur?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Also, I note there's minor differences at the Turbo. on the earlier and
later TY's. Not sure what they are- but the waste gate controller seems
different and/or oil sending unit. What are the differences? </DIV>

<DIV>20th Anniversary Pontiac TransAm<BR>For 1989 Pontiac wanted to build a
special series car to celebrate 20 years of the<BR>TransAm. What they wanted to
build was a roadable copy of a race car that used a<BR>turbocharged V-6 engine.
The regular production TransAm used a normally aspirated<BR>V-8.<BR>The job of
productionizing the race car fell to Prototype Automotive Services.
Rather<BR>than install the engine in a separate facility, to cut costs the plan
was to trick the<BR>production line the car being assembled has the normal V-8,
rather than actually a V-6.<BR>The turbo engine would need to be prepared in a
facility separate from the Van Nuys,<BR>CA assembly plant, and there were other
special parts of the car that would need to be<BR>completed in that facility
also.<BR>General Motors people can build hundreds of thousands of cars, but
building 1500 they<BR>had never done, and were not quite sure how. To plan all
this PAS called on associates<BR>Bob Marianich, Tony Cassani, and myself. We
worked out the system flow, and<BR>designed the facility. Bob Marianich built
the facility in City of Industry, CA. I wrote the<BR>processing and specified
all the tooling for the car. In addition I trained the key plant<BR>personnel to
build the car.<BR>Between January and April 1989 1550 20TA Pontiacs were built.
I also wrote the<BR>Quality Control procedures for the car, and it proved to
have the lowest Warranty costs<BR>of any GM product that year.<BR>After the 20TA
series, the City of Industry plant was shipped to Shreveport, LA and<BR>became
the GMC Syclone plant. Following that the plant was shipped to Pontiac, MI
to<BR>produce the Typhoon and Sonoma GT.<BR>T97J1710.pdf</DIV>
