I've been carrying the dohcfiero.com domain for about 15 years now and I have no idea why, but I am not renewing it this year. Contact me if you're interested in taking it over. Make it quick as it expires 10/1.

Sorry to hear this.
I love the DOHC swap but have never done one. I have seen and heard the amazing sounds and performance of those engines.
Such a great swap, a TOTAL loss for the Fiero world.

I've been maintaining it as a repository of all the info to build a 3.4 DOHC in a Fiero. I never built one and I'm not maintaining it anymore, so if someone else wants to take it I am giving it all away for free.

Can you even find a 3.4 DOHC anymore?

You could take your repository of 3.4 and host it in a group on Facebook for free.

Just a thought.

The DOHC Fiero was one of my most favorite conversions. I regretted selling that car the day after I sold it.

Would like to have another, I'm thinking the newer 3.6 GM DOHC engine would be fun. Specifically, the LGX version. My problem is, I hate automatics. I enjoy manuals.
I don't know that the Getrag five speed would handle the torque over the long haul.

Reference the web site, I'm the last person on this rock to handle that. I'm barely able to fire up this lap top. Still trying to figure out how it starts up without a pull cord.

So I assume you are going to have a backup of the site and are just letting the domain name expire.
I am very far removed from any engine upgrade if I ever get another Fiero.

Perhaps one day someone can host the site.

Boy, do I have a deal for you and I can even deliver. Which, would you prefer,
88 Formula, 5 speed manual, completely stock 2.8L V 6 CJB (T Top) white with leather interior or
88 Formula, 5 Speed manual, 3800 SC with a moon roof. Red with leather interior?

ps, delivery ain't free.
