Cool deal. Does it have a cage yet? I'd also like to see what it looks like under the rear decklid now that there's no longer an engine taking up room. To be honest...a full picture show would be awesome.

That new scoop makes it look much more aggressive! If thats possible with it being tubbed and the engine sticking WAY above the roof and all. I was hoping you would have brought it to GM Carlisle and show the the spectators something REALLY exciting! Did you get a trailer yet? Maybe bring it to the NOPI show in August at MIR. It would definitly get "some" attention!
I just installed a new scoop, replacing the Hilborn style that I had. What do you think?
There are no words to describe what I felt when I seen that pic! HOLY $%&^*^%&$#$%*^(. My neighbors think my car is too loud. I would love to see the look on their faces if I were to back "That" outta my garage
love the car . and would love to build a track only fiero. but what is the point of the high rise intake? do you have so many mods done to the engine that you feel you need it ? or is it pretty much to look even more outrageous moving out of the garage.

Since that appears to be a Drag only car, I suspect the point of the entire setup is to win

While this looks like a very nice project, you can hardly consider this vehicle a Fiero. It's a gutted Fiero body on a special front engined frame. There are probably no parts from the original powertrain that were used.

Looks cool, but it will get you a ticket in Maryland if the cop is sharp. your not allowed to go more than 1/3 the height of the windshield...........found out the hard way.

the same can be said for any drag car of this magnitude. I see camaros built like this that have equally few original parts, a lot of Camaro guys are running ford 9" rear ends and such, but they are still called camaros. Or the guy drag racing his VW bus/truck backwards. there were no parts at all original to the thing, but it still is a VW bus/truck.
I think this is definately still a Fiero, it's just been moved into the steroid catagory along with many other tubbed out super drag cars.
Oh and i think the new scoop looks infinantly better than the last one. very cool!
Get that baby on Pinks all out!

Since my car doesn't use its original powertrain i guess its not a Fiero either? This car still has most of its original unibody and all its body panels. Yes, its STILL a Fiero.
