86 GT 5 speed, my VIN number has a #9 in the engine code position (no R anywhere depicting the 2.8). I always thought the stock V6 was a 2.8. Sorry maybe dumb question, but I'm relatively new to this Fiero owners group...Does anyone have specs on the 3.8. I had a hard time trying to find them. Cubic inch, horse power etc. [This message has been edited by FX (edited 04-21-2019).]

9 is the 2.8 V6, R is for the 2.5 4 cyl
Fieros never came with the 3.8. Any Fiero with a 3.8 had is swapped in.

I'm up in Tonawanda NY. Just north of Buffalo gtoformula. Car gets laid up for the winter. At 73 years young, these old bones don't get around too good anymore. I've love this car for the past ten years, when my good friend owned it. I'm an old school mechanic, and fixed what I could for him, and he let me play with it. When it came up for sale, he made me a offer I couldn't refuse. He had a reman engine put in it about 4k ago.

Ha, Lou6t4gto, yer exactly right. Then I gotta fall into it, and fall out of it. You don't get into these cars, you put them on. I'm having shifting problems with it now, but I'll start a new thread for it...
