Did you do the work or have it done? Whoever did this is extremely talented. It is no easy task to fit, align, & get that Fiero TRANSMISSION sorted out, in order for that set up to work reliably. That is truley an engineering accomplishment. VERY well done

And here I was considering buying a Fiero to drop an LS1 in, but was concerned about the engine fitting...

That car looks awesome man. I'll definitely be following this build!

It's a heavily modified IMSA wide body kit.

I'm just the crazy guy with pipe dreams and ideas, But V8 Archie of IL makes them a reality for me. He specializes in V8 fiero swaps and body fabrications. link to his site: http://www.v8archie.com this will be the first LS7 fiero swap but not his first LSX swap.

They're hydro formed with an individual hydro formed runner for each port on the inside.

We're having custom headers made for it.

Some money going into this build.


Deff wish yah the best of luck with it. Once someone breaks the ice with a new swap, others usually follow, and I looked at the fieros, Mr2s ect before I decided on the Ls1/Rx7 swap

Looks great; I've always wondered how that transmission would do attached to a LSx motor.
