Your car looks awesome. The engine is so cool and now a dash to match. WOW
I like the hatch you built, but thought I'd see what it would look like with large sail panels.
Not sure if I like it any better, what do you think?

87 notchback 4.9L swap in progress

I have a question here, regarding the brake conversion. Did you upgrade the brake master cylinder when doing this swap? I know the pistons in those calipers are much bigger than the Fieros and they are going to need more fluid. Which will make the brake pedal feel soft and maybe go to the floor. What brake master cylinder was used in this conversion?

BTW, Great work and write up on your project! I can see that engine swap had to take alot of creative thinking to get it to work.

Any updates on someone making the parts for the brake upgrade? I'm in line!!!

First let me say Awesome work. Can't wait to the finished product!!!!!!!!!

A brake question......Will everything from an 88 Vette work.....All four rotors, calipers and brackets? Anything else I need to know when picking up these parts. Trying to get a junk yard package together.

Thanks and an A+

Looks like the intakes really match the headers ! And you can almost look into the engine and see how it works!
Whats next? its wicked.
What about transparent valvecovers or a sealed heatresistant minicam and strobe light in the oilpan to monitor your crank on your dash screen?
