A little update, here's some pictures of the finished engine compartment and the interior.I've been going to some car shows and the car always seems to be the hit of the show.Most people didn't think you could put that big of an engine in a Fiero without cutting it up.

That's sweet!

Neat and clean install. You'll be making more power than the 3800SC but low 11's high 10's is going to be hard to beat. You should be making more power but IMO getting it to the pavement will be the challenge.

Hey Don,
You ready for one of those billet paddle shifters since you have that PCS controller on that transmission? That would look sweet in there with that custom dash...

I haven't posted anything because there is nothing new.I've just been breaking it in and sorting out little glitches as I find them.I did just get my 10 inch M&H sticky drag tires and I should be getting my wheels this week or next.They were one off the glitches,the Wilwood brake calipers hang over the outside of rotor 1 3/8's and you can't get a wheel from any manufactorer that will clear it,I called them all.So I had to spend the money and order custom wheels like I have on the car.I'll be poorer but will look great going down the track.I should make it to the track the first part of Oct.
I don't have a video of the supertrapps,but I can tell you they sound and work great.The tone is throuty but not loud and don't restrict the exhaust.I'm glad I used them now and I'll do it again,people know there's somethig in there without the raspy sound.

What a coincidence....I was looking for wheels for my car 
Your existing ones wouldn't happen to be going up for sale?[This message has been edited by IMSA GT (edited 10-07-2009).]

Hey Loyd,that paddle shifter looks pretty nice.How much is it?That could be a quick winter project.I'm hoping to get to the track on Sat the !7th if my wheels get back in time.I had to send them back because they didn't fit AGAIN,the 15 inch wheel don't go up high enough with a 6 1/2 inch backset, the rim hits the strut at the top bolt.
Adam,for your information,you can use a 10 1/2 inch rim with a 6 1/2 inch backset on a 17 inch rim or bigger.6 inches would be better but 6 1/2 will work but the tire will be close to the strut.The outside of the tire will just miss the fender as it goes up by about a little less than a half an inch.If you try anything else it won't work,believe me I've tryed it.
