My friend Teo in high school had a '79 Trans AM with the W72 6.6L cowl induction. According to the internet, it was dyno'd back in the day at 260 - 270 HP, but to see the flaps open and the speed generated along with the noise (going through the D Street tunnel in Washington DC) was just glorious.

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
