Catback was only sometimes, it was an option, not a requirement to get the SS badge. There were a crap load of options you could get but didn't have to.

Same thing with the Trans-am and WS6. Its a appearance and suspension package in short.

Except the WS6 was all done in the factory where as the SS was shipped to SLP to have the extra work done.

the firebird is the v6, the formula firebird is a v8 car with all of the v6 trim, so it looks like a v6 but has the v8 of that year.
