i was a garage with the work van a while back and some russian mechanic there had one with a northstar caddy v 8 and tranny in it . we started talking and he says the motor and tranny are a fairly easy swap. he said the motor cradles are very similar. now that car must go!

Nice little commuter car. Make sure you solve the electrical problems they are known for.

Al, Fiero's are not the lameage. We're so feuding now.
Have fun with the new Fiero man. Wait til you have more. You're gonna need it. Any questions, Phil and I have nearly all the Fiero answers.
