Default new firebird owner

hey guys new here, just trying to learn a lil about my car.bought it for 100 bucks a few days ago, runs and drives good, aside from the fact when i floor it all the way it will suddenly lose all power thru the trans and the rpms will jump unless i back of the gas a little and then it stops slippping. anyone have this problem?
im kinda impressed by this car though, not as fast as my mustang 5.0 but it handles alot better and it scoots pretty damn good. any car that squeels tires on dry pavement with a auto tranny aint bad in my book.
i want to eventually fix the front end , im good with that stuff, and i wannt all the ecu crap off the car and just have it old skool with no electronics, just a carb and highrise intake.
is there a way to get true dual exaust to clear on these cars?

You can do true dual exhaust on those, I've seen it done, I believe 2.5" is the biggest you can go but you run both pipes under the passenger floorboards then over the back axle and after that the drivers side pipe has to be bent over to the drivers side.
