I would hardly call a ZZ4 a stock motor, its built by GM to be a perforance motor. What car comes with a ZZ4 from the factory in the past 10 years? (or ever for that matter) Take a stock LT1 vs stock 3800SC, I'd say 3800SC, just my opinion. Isn't FieroX supposed to be making some new runs this month with new tires and shocks?

Animal, when you are in a public place anyone can photograph or take videos of you, it's not illegal. If you didn't want Shaun taking a video of your dyno run you could have asked him to leave the premises, but I don't know if you had the authority to do so. You could have asked the owner of the dyno to ask him to leave or to not allow video taping, if you felt your privacy was being invaded. I doubt this would have happen if they are friends with Shaun or weren't in the mood to accomodate you.

Actually, the deal on the dyno with the owner/operator was that Shaun would not be allowed on the premises. The dyno day was just for fun, and it was supposed to be only Fieros. But the owner/operator turned around and scheduled two groups, and he did allow his buddy Shaun to come in and film the proceedings – against objections. Nice guy!
It is sad that a fun event can be blown totally out of proportion, and utilized in such a manner. It seems that some people lack the ability to enjoy life and the companionship of friends.

I didn't build it to run 12s. I don't have a shop budget so I had to just tweak it to where it is for now. I drive it daily, to and from class, I'm a full time student who lives on campus and has a great life. There is more to myself than sinking money into this car.
The point is that Archie is getting paid thousands of dollars to put built up engines into cars and they can't run 12s, let alone do so on a daily driver and get as good as gas mileage I do. When these crate motors are putting down in the 200s to the wheel, there is certainly a problem.
For what its worth, I will be MUCH faster than 12s this summer, because yes, 12 seconds is slow and I can hardly stand driving this pig. The 3800 part is right but you were missing the T70 extension. |

I can see your point, but I don't think Archie said that his cars will run 12's Did he? Maybe I didn't read that part

Archie isn't getting paid thousands of dollars to put built up engines into cars.
He gets paid for installing a SBC V-8 of the customers choice into a Fiero with his kit.
No where on his website does he claim to build up engines.
Crate engines vary. Some are rated as low as 250hp. So why do you find it strange that a V-8 rated at 250hp puts down say 210rwhp? I've seen a stock 3.4DOHC put down 157rwhp and a stock 3800SC put down 177rwhp, Does that mean that the parts used to install the engine are defective??

And look at Steven Snyder putting down in excess of 200whp on a stock motor. Wrong vs. Right.
