What are RPO's WS1 and WS8? 2.77 axle ratio is in the borg warner rear end?

Unknown. The RPO decoder can't decode those two.

Re: 1986 TA RPO questions

What decoder did you use? The Thirdgen RPO decoder from this site didn't show anything for those.

Re: 1986 TA RPO questions

In 85, WS1 was "Pontiac Dollars Plus" Package, (Not a Firebird exclusive) - a $260 retail discount on my car, per dealer invoice.

The discount usually applied when ordering certain option combos.

Mine was missing a few options like power locks and mirrors and tilt.
