Thanks, I'll be honest; I was never a Fiero guy from the start. I made fun of them when I was younger too. I had the V8 sitting around after it was swapped out for a hotter motor in my dad's '64 Corvette so I had to find something to put it in. Muscle car prices were exploding so I had to pick something more affordable so the Fiero was the ticket. There is actually a much bigger Fiero following then you might think. http://fiero.nl is Pennock's Fiero Forum and its one of the most popular, fast moving forums I've ever seen. There are some amazing cars with some amazing things done to them. 3.4, 3.8 V6's, 3.8 SC & Turbo, SBC, 4.5 & 4.9 Caddy V8's. The big thing now is LS V8's even a LS7 into a choptop wide body. I know a guy in N. Illinois that has a widebody 383 turbo car that is pushing 720+ hp. Crazy stuff.

That is almost unbeilevable. Those cars are so small with all that power must make them insane to drive. I saw a fiero for sale the other day for $500. I think i will look into it further for a possible sleeper car. I do have a crate 350 sitting in my old truck witch has a blown tranny. Again nice work, that truly is a piece of art.

Actually the car is pretty mild mannered. The new cam is a little lumpy for the street but not bad. She runs under 190 all day long even in summer and idles at about 750. After I did the V8 swap the car weighed 2760lbs. It gained some weight with the new brakes and big wheels but its well worth it. You also have to remember there is plenty of weight over the rear tires to aid with traction. I'm not saying you can't spin the tires when you want to but it helps with launches, etc. haha
