I'm only going to pick on you a little bit. For starters, learn to spell before trying to build a car. Use punctuation where needed. Since you have comuter access, do your research on Lamborghini kits - there are quite a few available, and even the kits based on a Fiero chassis can handle a larger motor. Check out Fiero forums (do a web search) for engine conversions. A common conversion is the Cadillac Northstar motor which should be more than enough power for the Fiero chassis to handle. The project is going to come down to time and money - which do you have more of? |

Hay Don't worry about the spelling or ,.;'#< things, we people of the not snob type are vary good with are hands and can be vary helpfull to the suit and tie no-it-alls.
It takes alot of time and money to cut and move and transform a Fiero ito a super car, the northstar does not fit and as we know the six cyclinder allready has cooling problems biger motor more heat not good, no mater what you do you still have a Fiero wraped in glass. It would save time and you would have a wonderfull car worth alot more if you use a frame or build a full chassis your self, then you have all kinds of motors to use.
Yes I know what Im talking about, I have 3 Fiero's and I build 33 Roadster Kits and I have a 2001 Lotus kit that I built molds for to go on the Fiero's..... Jack Rods of SO CAL

Yep - I deserved that! :-) But seriously, if you're going to ask questions like that, have a little respect for the people that have to decipher what you are trying to say. I'm not trying to be a snob, I'm certainly no suit, I'm just advocating the proper use of the language!
I am curious, though, Jack, why you say the Northstar doesn't fit. I saw several at the last Carlisle kit show (Lamborghini clones) and it seemed to be a decent, if not tight, fit. Good point on the cooling issues, but most mid engines will have those.Rick
