OK,this is what I got 86 cradle with sbc mounted with archies kit to an iszuz 5 spd.it is mounted and ready to install, and here comes the BUTTTT.I want to pull the tranny and install a 4t60.I dont have a lot of time right now to do it my self,we r having to work 80+hours a week right now and it suxxxxxxs.So i am trying to find someone who could do it for me,They dont have to put it in the car just mount the motor and tranny onto the cradle.I have some vacation time,2 weeks, in july.and thatwhen I would like to get it in the car,the car is an 86 auto.Ihavent got the tranny yet but can get one locally or if any one has one for sale i can get it that way,I know there is a heck of alot of other things i will have to purchased.And that is no problem.Like i said the cradle is completly out with motor and tranny,struts brakes exhaust all mounted.I can put it on a set of dollies and bring it to you. And come back to pick it up.I really dont want to drive to far,but i can.i can pay cash,parts ,beers,,,,,I am pretty much the only one that has been builiding all my cars,not many of my freinds even know what a fiero is,so i have a time with a few projects.If any one can help please lett me know.

You're going to need an Archie adapter and flex plate. I just happen to have them. I was going to put a 4t65e hd with my 350 vortec before I changed my mind and went ls4 turbo instead. Not sure if they will work with a 4t60 though. I went through one isuzu and was running the seond one carefully til the swap.

If you have the right adapter plate, crank spacer and flexplate, you could do it yourself in 4 hours or less!

As a side note, Does anyone really know the difference between Archie's manual adapter plate and auto adapter plate? I've been thinking about a 4t65eHD swap in my SBC car.

Edit to add: You will need axles too!

THANKS GUYS FOR THE REPLYS! I have the auto adapter plate, crank spacer and flexplate.As far as the axles I was under the impression that I could use the fiero driver side and a p 6000 passenger side.I had seen a build thread a while back but havent been able to find it any where.But I have continued to search for it,would anyone know where it is? thanxs again
