I was looking into more things today I know youre running a manual so it wont be identical but how did cv shafts work out for you. I know the spline count hex nut size and axle nut thread are all the same just unsure on if I can get the right length axles. Thanks for all of your help with this
I also forgot to ask if you had a part number for tje right ecm laying around this guy has all of the wiring and whatnot but does not have an ecm[This message has been edited by colowill (edited 04-16-2014).]

The transmission mounts to the cradle in the same location as the Fiero trans and uses the same axles. You can use a computer from any car that has the 2.0 turbo engine. My engine came from a 1990 Sunbird GT. Check eBay or www.car-part.com, you should be able to find one.

Installed the passenger side dew wipe and replaced the broken wheel stud in the rear. Now I just have to align it.

What would you estimate 0 to 60 to be and are you having trouble with the engine running hot? Thanks
