Wow a lot cleaner than I would've thought with that kind of beating you give to that thing haha !!! Very nice!!
rodolfo23cr Appreciate it man!
You can beat on it as long as you take care of it. Very clean. Im going to look at a 2001 WS6 today, only down side is its an auto. The price is right so i dont mind the sacrifice. What part of FL are you in Kenny?
@@KennySlides ,
Cool Trans Am. 👍 Burt Reynolds would be very proud of your awesome power slides. 😎 You can easily be a stunt driver for Hollywood movies.
William Horvat Thanks I really appreciate the kind words! 🙏🏼
Pisses me off I almost had one of these and I told the dealer I would get it the next day because my bank was closed and I went next day with cash in hand and they sold it. My dream car gone just like that
Bob Ross Dang man I’ve experienced a similar thing with a c6 Z06, stinks for sure!
Bob Ross Similar thing happened to me with a white WS6. Bummed but kept looking and finally was able to find my WS6. Had to drive 11hrs to get her and I’ll never sell. Just keep looking. Plenty of them are still out there.
Beautiful TA man one of my favorites out there!
Nick Enriquez Thanks bro!
It's too bad you couldn't take a trip down to the freedom factory... I bet Cleetus would love to drift this around his track!
He did a burnout at one of cletus' events once
Planning on it brotha! 🤘🏼
I thought I was the only one wanting do drift an fbody
true
Burt Reynolds is on your side, dude.

Very nice indeed! However, I should point out that you do not need everything your car has to drift like you do. I see a lot of people wanting to copy another one's build and as a previous owner of 3 f-bodies, they are quite drift-able bone stock. I think simple mods like suspension and chassis upgrades will get you into the sport. That Moser 12 bolt is a pricey piece but oh so very strong! Appreciate you taking the time to share your build and how it all works together. For anyone reading this, if you own one, get out and practice. You don't need to buy anything to start... well, except for tires. You gonna need a LOT of those! :)
Great attention to detail! Tasteful modifications. Handles the abuse. Well done!!!
Wow 👏 I really congratulate you on how well & clean that TA is.
Excellent representation for all the TA cars & people.
I own a built 2002 Collector Edition Trans Am WS6 manual and my wife owns a stock 30th Anniversary Trans Am WS6 auto. Love the Maple Red Metallic and the fact that you drift it. Hoping you come to LS Fest East at Beech Bend in Bowling Green KY some day.
Chris
Chris Thompson That’s awesome man! Definitely plan on attending LS Fest sometime

Our WS6'S Instagram is @sickws6s 🤟
Might seem like a dumb question but dose LD fest allow the LT1 TA cars?
@@brendonwest9293
LS Fest allows any LS powered vehicle but not the older Lt1 stuff. They do allow the current generation LT V8 powered vehicles.
Thank you, I appreciate the info!
Nice, nice T/A Kenny! Thanks for the walk around. Well built f-body. Looks fantastic sliding around the skreets!
Very beautiful TA. ❤ much love for it
My dream T/A I love your videos man ! Keep it going
Luis Coronado Thanks brotha!
Bad ass car!!You are keeping it in great shape not drilling holes every where or whipping wires all about..Good job bro good job!!
beautiful car, and awesome driving! love your videos
Bobby Brooks Appreciate it man!
You definitely inspired to build up my trans am. Every time I watch your vids it makes me want to get it at least drive able. Clutch blew up on me in 2019. Been a long time.
Big fan of your videos and your TA. I have a 2002 base TA 6speed as well. Formula/TA (WS6 or not) and especially Firehawks - these cars are insane! Keep the content coming!
shanedoink That’s awesome man and I really appreciate it!
Love the ride man! Gives me a lot of ideas for my F body.
TWill16 Appreciate it bro!

Ermal N Oh yeah!
My god you make drifting look so easy! Liked and Subbed!
Interesting, I was looking into oil coolers today for my Camaro because I'd like to do some track days with it. It was nice seeing your oil cooler setup.
Love this car man!!!
great job Kenny very thorough presentation... keep it between the curbs man
Travis Quintero Thanks man I appreciate it!
Really glad to see an American drifter that isn't obsessed with import trash
That is literally my dream car man..the wheels the stance the power everything about that car is just nasty!

Will Gebhardt Appreciate it dude!
It is super dope though that you could road race this on Friday. And slide it Saturday and drive home.
That is 1 hell of a beautiful Trans am.. That color is truly gorgeous
Kris Rawk Thanks I really appreciate that!
Absolutely love your car! I have a 2001 Pontiac Trans Am WS6 I had since I’m 21, I’m now 37. I have changed many parts on mine, some which I’ve upgraded. I will never sell my car. Thanks for sharing! Amazing to see how much control you have of your car when it’s completely outta control 👍🏻! Always enjoy your video’s.
Kerry Werner That’s awesome man! Thanks for the support 🙏🏼
So lucky

Nick Gutierrez Thanks man! 🙏🏼
Very nice man. I need to do alot to my 2000 WS6. She is all stock.
My ws6 has a power steering cooler that connects connects to rad hose from factory. It seems to do a good job.
Sweet Unit!

Chynna Pierce oh awesome good luck with the build and thank you!
Such an awesome motor vehicle
Beautiful car man. You definitely keep it clean
Justin Wiley Thanks man and I try to haha
Your car is my dreamcar. WS6 or not. I absolutely love the painted aftermarket hood. Looks amazing.. I love your wheel choice & tire size. And that color sure is something shining in the sun.
The Angry Italian Scotty Piffin1 Thanks man I really appreciate your support!
This car is sick af,
Goals brotha
shams Thanks man I appreciate it!
Answered all my questions!! Nice!! Figured you had a Yukon back there. Crazy you don’t use an ebrake! @$80 a tire I could live with that!!
This thing is inspiration lol I’ll never sell of my ws6
My dream car! Thanks for sharing 🙂
Kenneth Kelson Thanks for watching!
Sick hopefully my next car
I took my Firehawk to a few drift events back in 2005. Back then the import guys at the shows used to say the car is too big and the engine is too heavy and imbalanced in the chassis. Well, ain't life grand fast forward over a decade and everybody is running LS conversions. The import guys back then really didn't know anything about f bodies. I was surprised back then that nobody figured out that these would make great drift cars. Everybody I talked to was impressed by my firehawk. I'm glad guys like you are out there popularizing it. F bodies still rock!
Expedition Jay That’s awesome brotha! They are definitely fun cars for sure 🙏🏼✊🏼
Great looking Trans Am! 👍
Fixin It Thanks man I appreciate it!
So clean 🤘
Jules Tiu Thanks 🤘🏼
Car is absolutely insane my dude!!
Joshua Taffer I appreciate it bro!
awesomelly sick, dude!
CYBERDRUKKER Thanks man!
a little bit of Chinese for me here and there since I've never modified a car in my life and still hoping to swipe my 3,8l firebird with an LS1 this year, great to know of u man. stay safe
It’s really not that hard. I’m swapping an LS3 into a V6 Camaro doing it super budget. People part out LS1 parts like K members all the time or go full send like Kenny. These F Body’s deserve a V8
My fav car bro 🤘🏼🤘🏼 stay rad
RaceEast KyleMurray Appreciate it dude!
Awesome buddy. Dig all you're vids. I have a black on black 2000 ws6. The original ls1 broke a rod going home from work. Bought a lq4 short block. All i have left is unbolt the k member and lift her up off the motor. Wish me luck. And again awesome setup bud. Shout out if ever in the Tampa Bay area.
Chuck Patrick Thanks man! Good luck with yours brotha ✊🏼
Such an awesome car and amazingly clean for how hard you drive it!
Quick question; does the auto canceling turn signals still work with the NRG steering wheel hub and quick disconnect?
Thanks!
Nice ride, so cool to see an f-body getting down. Also you might look into a quick drain for your engine oil, I got one from fujimoto. Never have to take the drain plug out again 👌
jacob clark Thanks for the tip man!
Excellent driver mod :D
Liked and subscribed just because of the intro !!!
TLBJ I appreciate it bro!
I love it.
Ur a bad man Kenny
Nasir Sanchez Appreciate it brotha!
Bad ass car Thanks for the vids. Im getting one when opportunity and time is right. Sold my 2000 Z28 just cause the ram air T/A is what i really want.
Ima Kitty Cat Thanks for the support! Yeah man I used to love the Camaros until I got my first T/A and now I prefer the birds 🤘🏼
Man what a Great build
Beto’s Garage Thanks man!
God I got to start building my 97. Nice and clean just the way I like'em
Super dope Trans 💪😎
aka_just_matt Thanks I appreciate it!
Wow.. your car is amazing buddy, very tastefully done.. and the fact that you slide it like a teenager who just found out his girls parents are gone for a few hours just adds to the cool factor, very very clean build and even cleaner driving.. I felt like I saw this car at vengence a few years back.. it was the color that caught my eye, and if it wasnt then there is another one kinda like it color wise that was there..
Slim Willy Appreciate it brotha!
Ws6 or ss steering rack has slightly faster ratio. A quarter of a turn less from stops from what I have read in several different articles.
Great trans am. I have a 2000trans am myself. Same color, I had mine painted like a jet fighter.
James DeLong That’s dope brotha!
A very clean, proper ride.
Spike Razzor Appreciate it man!
Yea I like it.
Due to the Corona BS just doing maintenance on my 97 T/A re installed a Meziere electric water pump (they are only good for so many miles) and did a thorough detailing on my recently installed BMR tubular front K member and upper/ lower control arms!, not much of a drifter, but that car is BADASS!
Thats awesome man and I really appreciate it!
That trans am is 😍😍
Denzel Donald Appreciate it! 🙏🏼
Nice!!
Damn she's mint for a drift car....real clean...magnaflow catback was the right choice! I can tell you're fussy....I'm the same way! Lol
Thanks man and yup I'm definitely pretty particular when it comes to my car 👌🏼
That exhaust sunroof factory button is genius!!
GMMG exhaust sounds great on these cars but you can never go wrong with magnaflow
DJ COLQUITT Thanks man!
You have such a clean ass car
Very, very nice! 👍🏽🔥🔥🔥🤙🏽
Anthony Perez Appreciate it bro!
Very Nice TA
Felipe Valdez Thanks I appreciate it!
Always can tell it's this guy drifting he's a beat honesty
Joseph Servido Really appreciate that! 🙏🏼
One of my dream cars.
Smokey Bandit 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Great F*cking Video!!! Keep them rolling off the Assembly Line!!! Thanks
Thanks for the support and there are plenty more on the way 👍🏼
Not that you necessarily care about more power, but you’d be shocked how much power you gain if you get the 3” pipes on the Y merging into a 4” cutout. Especially with a motor that size. Two 3” pipes merging into a single 3” pipe is a huge restriction and causes a lot of the drone and kackling these cars are known for. Flowmaster Y300400. That is one nice and clean TA!
This makes me miss my 2001 Firebird Formula. Should have never sold it.
Those rims are the best looking rims on a TA I have ever seen
Dang I really appreciate that man!
SHESSSH BARS!!!
This is actually sick lol
Giggity!
Cleannnnnnn
KTVBUILT Thanks home boiiii
Awesome video! Keep it up #FBODYORNOBODY
Bryant M Thanks for the support!
That is a bad ass car. Tick performance does a great job when you can get them to do work. They are usually covered with work because they are that dam good.
The Vegan Viking !!!! They are the real deal that’s for sure!
KennySlides yeah they are, I live about 40 minutes south of their shop and have seen much of their work, for the ls community they are in the top 3 in the world when it comes to building ls motors. On top of the quality of work they do they also hold charity events for fans and customers in dire need and to me that shows great character on their part.
The Vegan Viking !!!! I agree man, they’re awesome!
4th gen. F-Body Drift! Hell Yeah Murica!
FIREBIRDGOD 🇺🇸🤘🏼
Very pretty.. But with all the mods you have done, its not surprising you actually aren't using the stock D/S. They came w Three Rivers 3" aluminum driveshafts, so that's either an earlier 4th gen d/s or if it measures a full 3" its got to be some aftermarket one, likely made by a local shop if you havent seen any Branding from a larger company (DSS/etc).
Great build brother how much did it cost to build in total. Thats one hell of a parts list
Hi, great car. Do you knew what size is the cap you have on the air lid elbow? Any help or info would be much appreciated it.
Awesome
AspiringOO Thanks!
Wow!!! What a beautiful trans am. Very clean and well taken of. Any big plans for the car?
Thanks! Ive got some plans in mind 😉
DUUUUUDE! YOU ARE WHAT I CALL A REAL DRIFTER! THERE'S NO NEED FOR E-BRAKING TO KICK THE A** OUT IF YOU KNOW HOW TO POP THAT CLUTCH AND SLIDE THAT POWER, WHICH YOU GOT DOWN! GOOD SHIT BRO!! I LOVE IT! 👍👍👍👌👌👌✊✊✌
Dang bro I really appreciate the kind words 🙏🏼
@@KennySlides I appreciate your skill bro. 👌
Cleanest trans am drift car I have seen lol
Thanks man!
Awesome T.A. Brother! 🤘🏼.. What are the dimensions of the front tires ?!
