Yes sir it is.

Thats debatable, its not the first time I've heard that. I like how its misleading tho.


Jermz: 4 rotors are insane. Theres only like 2 cars I've heard of with 4, the 787B and some FD. Overkill to the extreme. You can run a normal built 13b to make those kinds of numbers with 30+ psi. 3 rotors I've seen alot. Really neat.

[/QUOTE]
My friend told me about a Cozmo using a 4 rotor setup? It does seem insane. I didn't know the 787B had a 4 rotor, pretty cool car . I've seen a couple nice FD's lately but like the Fiero and the fox body....they're a rare breed.

It wasn't a Boss if it was a 6 cyl. Bosses were either 302, 351, or 429ci V8s. I've never experimented with the Mustang inline 6, but I've often wondered...the 3.0L Supras are capable of >1000hp - built, of course.

On another note, there are pricks behind the wheel of all makes and models, even our beloved Fiero...I personally think that there are a higher percentage of them driving big pickup trucks (usually one of the 3) rather than any type of car. Not necessarily intended toward all pickup drivers...

Tis true, I met my first disrespectful Fiero guy at a huge street race/car get together a while back. He was 16-17 and had quite an attitude. Some people are just weird like that. I still have yet to meet a Fiero person like him.

dont bother with the 200ci inline 6, its a dog, pure and simple. semi-decent torque numbers, but 0-60 is about a week and a half. my friend in high school had one, fully rebuilt and restored, me and him decided to race (i had the ranger i mentioned earlier in the thread). we were even until about 45ish and then i started pulling away.

lol, i beat a 6 cylinder manual rustang with my automatic 3800 `1990 buick lesabre. Both POS, but my POS pulled on his about 4 car lengths till the next set of lights and he didnt pull up next to me again. I thought that was funny. Im pretty sure your fiero will win. This is the buick. "RIP"
