I can grab a sd4 for 200 bucks. I am looking at it on Tuesday. The engine has NO vin according to the guy (raises a flag). Anyways. I have been sent pics and its is a sd4 and i can get the whole car for 500 bucks. It turns over but does not fire. I am going to do a comp test and some other "is this a good engine" tests. I was wondering if i get some numbers of the body and the engine if someone could run them. Im not going to buy stolen anything. If its clean I am going to hawk my camera and grab it. I will then clean it up and sell it.

And no. The kid does not know what he has. he Is a fiero hater from the sounds of it but got this car and two "supercharged v6" cars that have not ran in a couple years. He also have a volvo I am really wanting too <---hints me wanting to sell the engine if and when I get it.

We have an Indy to put that motor in!!!!!

I am not sure how an SD4 would have a VIN in the first place... they were never a factory option and were always race engines. What car would it be tied to?

look for the arrowhead on the block.

Look CAREFULLY at the engine to make sure it's really an SD4, 99% chance it's just a duke.

Here's an SD4 block:



I'd gladly pay $200 for just the block.

They don't have VIN's because they never came in any cars.

If its really an SD4 it WON'T have a VIN. They weren't in any cars off the line. Even if it is in need of major overhaul, buy it, I have a use for it.

Howdy,
Give it to punk kid or PK whatever his name is for that DPG IMSa he is messing up with the duke.

Really? And you have contributed soooo much to this forum? PK may not have a grasp of the English language, and he may be putting a duke into the IMSA, but at least he getting the car on the road. If you read his thread, you will see that he is doing all that he can, with what he has.

So there you go Jay.....

Edit:

BANNED! By me.

Based on closer inspection of the SD4 engine block picture which RWDPLZ posted above, it appears that one method to use in determining whether or not the block is a "Super Duty" may be the simple expedient of looking for the raised lettering near the bottom of the block which spells out "SUPER DUTY" in caps.

They wont come with a VIN. the fiero was never offered with an SD4 as a factory option. they were and over the counter engine.. there also technecley not street legal (not that that would stop me)

Was wondering how he got banned. Good riddance, he actually said this in another thread....

That was in reference to Tyler's Toy. So basically he wishes he would get brain cancer so the community would come fix up his car... yeah not sorry to see him go.


Back to topic, I'm sure PK would pay whatever he could for a SD4 if you get it Tuzzi.

***EDIT*** Or, you could mercilessly tease him that you have one and he doesn't. I see either one as a win/win.

I repeat:

If its a SD4, buy it and make me a good deal on parts.

I'd be thinkin about it.. i sure as hell would love to have an SD4 back into my IMSA. Kris we will talk about this if it is a true SD4. 10speeder also had an 85 IMSA. i dont know the details on it but he said it looked like mine. Dont know who his pannels were done by though.

Lol and he can teash me all he wants... SD4 dosent mena nothing without the IMSA

Please take pics of all the Fiero's. "Supercharged V6's" ????????

quote Originally posted by 87antuzzi: I can grab a sd4 for 200 bucks.

Soooo what's to think about? If it is one get it...oh sorry, everybody already beat me to it.

Like I said. It is a sd. I was sent pics of the raised letering on the block, and from how he described the upper deck it is a sd. I was just wondering if it had a vin or casting number. Im not going to say which car its tied to. Like I said. If everything is legit I am going to get it. I will then post tons of cell phone pics and post it in the mall.

So how much are you looking to get for it, then?

quote Originally posted by 87antuzzi: pk is NOT getting this sd4. I dont care if he offered me 10k for it. I cant let it go through that trama.

That's just harsh.

quote Originally posted by FirstDrCar: So how much are you looking to get for it, then?

Its value. I will get the engine. Do a comp test and plasti gauge it. Make sure there are no defects wrong with it and post it here first. If im not happy then people can bid it out on ebay. And im just messing with ya rick. It would go good in youre imsa.

So put it in an old Volvo just for fun.

I'll be watching for that mall entry as well. Can we start bidding now?

ummmm, pretty sure that was stolen.... from me! Can you pick it up for me and ship it to Duluth? Thanks and much appreciated!

was it worth a try?

Who says its not in a ppg wide body car?

quote Originally posted by 87antuzzi: Got more info. His dad bought at a auction back in 93. The car was never road legal and was only used on a track and went to a couple shows. The reason it is parked is because he off track and ripped the control arm out from under it. From what i have gathered the body is not a imsa but looks to be a ppg car (looks like rare66's avatar). I will take pics when i go see it.

Rare W66's avatar is a stage 3 imsa. like mine only painted diffrent.

So 87antuzzi, this would be a good time to invest a little cash, and then flip it right away and make some bucks.

I know I would, and I assume you prob would like to hold on to something like that HOWEVER I hear you have been kinda scraping and this would be a great way to get ahead.

Keep it and it kinda becomes a burden right? I just know that what tends to happen to me when I get in a situation like that.

idk, just a thought. If you do buy it, of course it's yours to do with how you please.

Just if you flip it, make sure you get what it's worth! What it's worth has no relationship to what you paid for it.

I'm pretty sure thats the plan. Kris needs a car of his own in good condition that he can trust to get him to work every day. Hopefully buying and flipping the SD4 will do that. I'm going to go with him when he looks at the engine and whatever else this guy has laying around and I'll try to remember to bring my camera and take some pictures.

Thats the plan. This engine would be a new daily driver and some new clothes for me. Im in it for the money. And thats it!

ROFLMAO bless you sir I'd love to see it go into that car, but not if he's going to be driving and taking care of it Be great for an Indy.

It will be interesting to see exactly what you have. Kris, shoot me some pics and I just might be able to help you out in determining what you are looking at. All of the PPG Fieros built have been documented and accounted for.
