The starter connection is in a less wire friendly place. Using that bolt down there to make electrical connections can lead to problems down the road.



I was afraid of the the load on the starter bolt, although that is stock for the GTP, ( I think ). I will change that also.

I put in an automatic radiator with new lines to the back last night. I also patched my fuel tank where the straps hold it up with fuel tank sealant. It had a pin hole in it. Then I gave it a coat of POR-15, it looks brand new. My cable modem is down so no pics for now.

I sold my 4 speed out of the GT and the steering column out of the GTP!!! Now i have enough money to get it running.

I ordered the Flotech Afterburner 5036FLT http://www.summitracing.com/parts/BIG-50363FLT/
I ordered 3- 3" 90 degree bends, A 3" X 8" Flex joint, and 2- 2.5" 90 pipes that come out of the muffler, I have the flange.

I also found a 1.5" X .75" brass tee for the heater core return http://www.jagsthatrun.com/...-TBI_Brass-Tees.html


A friend of mine had this laying around.

I have a set of automatic axles and a set of manual axles and the 1998 4t65EHD tulips with the 1998 GTP axles. I have read a ton of threads and am more confused than when i started. I am not looking for the "definitive answer" Just what worked for you with the fieroX motor mounts. Whats your setup?

Will this work?
4t65ehd driver side = Fiero DRVR side auto & 98 GTP tripot. (From what I understand plug and play?)
4t65ehd pass side = Fiero Outer CV,GTP Drv side Axle( only the axle bar) & 98 GTP tripot?
