The Firebird was a pony car built by the Pontiac division of General motors which shared the same F-body platform as the Camaro.
The Firebirds, and the Trans-Ams ( a performance upgraded option ) were, for the most part, powered by various V8 engines of different GM divisions. While primarily Pontiac-powered until 1977, Firebirds were built with several different engines from nearly every GM division until 1982 when all Pontiac engines were dropped in favor of corporate units.
