There is a very noted difference in the length and routing of exhaust between a Fiero and a Cavalier. You also can't use the 3500 'header' like manifolds in that generation of J-body due to space constraints, so Weatherall's Auto was using the log front manifold and crossover, most likely from a 3500 van since that is where motor came from, and from the pictures he still had the full Cavalier exhaust installed.




Hello all 60*ers
The WZ3500, yup I said it...

Why is the dyno sheet of a 3500 in an actual Fiero 'crap' and dyno video of a 3500 in a Cavalier more representative of a Fiero swap?

If anything, that should tell you about how much variation there can be in swaps. We already discussed the variation in dynometers, that everyone keeps forgetting.
Post dynos of 3500s in their original car with no mods then to get a baseline. If a modded 3.4 Fiero can match that power, which is a fact, why is he still being a no-life'd troll? His comparisons are useless because mods vary.
It's crap because he keeps trolling like its the norm.
His posts go in circles. All he does is repeat him self. He serves no constructive purpose in this thread. He had dedicated threads for his trollishness but in the end no one cared about them. It's like he's personally insulted that iron heads can be ported to 'hang' with aluminum heads. Poor baby.

This thread is about my car/engine not a motor that will never go in it.
