If you have invented a power adder(that actually makes HP) to add to the 3800 that hasnt been found yet, then you have something. I cant think of anything that isnt on the market already that covers all major and even minor upgrades to the 3800. Will be insteresting to see what it is and see the dyno numbers from before and after the MOD.

I am not sure if this was disgused, but Ski, what typ of paint is that? I have a red Fiero that I want to paint, but that paint looks so damn good I gotta have it. I don't want the same color as I am looking at a Ford color that I love. It's called Toredo Red, I had it on a car I owned awhile back. Can you tell me who the paint manufacturer is and what type of paint it is. I don't know if paint has model numbers or not. ------------------

The paint is the factory bright red. It has three coats of clear on top. I have mentioned before that the orginal factory red paint tends to darken with time so many do not think mine is the factory color. I had a faded red 86 GT with orginal red paint. Setting beside my 88 GT one would say that the two were definitely not the same color but if you opened the 86 GTs hood the paint underneath the hood was a match to my 88 GT. ------------------

I just spent the last 7 hours reading and rereading this thread. Simply FANTASTIC!!!! Some of the most beautiful detail work that I have ever seen!
I haven't been on this forum for long and I am sorry that I wasn't able to follow this thread from the beginning. This thread gives me the chance to dream of how my 88 might look and things that I can do to enhance the natural beauty of my Fiero. I have been a Fiero owner since 1986. I am now rebuilding an 88 from the ground up and I am planning on doing some mods to it. The style will be my own but inspired from others on this Forum and alot by you Ski. Thanks for the enjoyment.Fiero1Fan (Timo)

Aw man... I got rid of my Fiero (and even my driver's license) years ago - thought I was over my Fiero addiction enough to risk a look around here. Now I've got to correct both of those. Only problem is that I've become a writer, which means the fiance/wife will have to be convinced that I "need" to buy the car. *sigh* Absolutely phenomenal car. Seriously, that thing should be the "poster car" for all Fiero-dom. If I get rich and famous could I hire you to build me a custom Fiero? (just kidding, I'm sure you've got better things to do) I'm at a loss. Your car represents the very spirit any one bitten by the Fiero bug has had, looking at their car and dreaming of completing the vision Pontiac abandoned nearly two decades ago. I can't think of any Fiero I've ever seen that I covet more. The fact that you've done all the work yourself just widens the gap further.

I am in total agreement! This is what most Fiero owners only dare dream about! ------------------

Fiero1Fan, VSpektyr and JaxDomino, I just want to thank you all for your comments. I really do appreciate it. F-I-E-R-O thanks for the bump. Always afraid this thread is going to go to archives.
