How many 87 Formulas had certain engines
We know that ONLY the Firebird came with a V6, (Formula, TA & GTA did not have this engine option) So we can eliminate 34,914 Firebirds having a V8, leaving 7638 Firebirds with the LG4 (The base firebird was not available with TPI)
That leaves 18322 Formulas and T/A's with the LG4
According to http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Downs/9635/87RPOFigures.html The T/A & GTA's combined had the following production: 12,402 5.0L (LB9) and 7818 5.7L (L98)'s That leaves:
5667 Formulas had the 5.0 (LG4) 4bbl
3931 Formulas had the 5.0 (LB9) TPI
3562 Formulas had the 5.7 (L98) TPI
12655 T/A's with the LG4
9124 T/A's with TPI 305 or 350
Transmissions:
Since the M5 was not available with the 350, that leaves 65,871 Automatics for the lesser engines. Again according to http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Downs/9635/87RPOFigures.html there were 27,007 Automatics between the GTAs & T/As, that leaves a total of 50244 Automatics for the Firebird and Formula. 5868 GTAs & T/As with a Manual Transmissions, That leaves 5468 Manual Transmissions for the Formula & Firebird.
