Yes it is. I wanted to use the 88 Fiero alternator so I also used the bracket and welded it to the dogbone bracket.

I never noticed how awsome your hood was. I totally agree about how the ZR hoods screw the lines up, a friend of mine was telling me about them but I didnt like the way it killed the lines either. I may go your route with the hood now. damn nice!

Here's a comment...Skitime you are a Fiero Genius.  Too bad you don't work on Fieros for a living. The rest of us could use your genius to make our cars look as good as yours.

I am wondering how you got the underside of the hood and decklid looking so good? They are both flat black just like what came from the factory, and I'm guessing you had those painted after you were done modifying? Honestly, the underside of the hood looks factory original.

What I had to do is complete cover the underside with body filler to cover the rough blown fiberglass. Then sand by hand until it is perfectly smooth prior to bonding it to the hood. I had to completely create a new contoured shape to the hood prior to mating the pieces. I added a pictures of the hood prior to bonding the scoop to the hood so look back in that section. ------------------

I have a question and a comment. First the comment. I am with everyone here when I say you did a spectacular job with your car. And now for the question.
I am in the process of a 3800SC swap myself and I am wondering if you still have the template you used for your cooling system? Or if possible would you get another set done if I pay for them plus extra for your trouble?
Also very curious on your fuel rail modifications.
Thanks in advance.
