Default V8 Fiero with an LS4

Some video of my 88 Fiero GT with the LS4.
The video is sub-par but is a start.





I got some good help from this forum, so thanks for the help.

Very nice. Saw where you can get this done for $10500 out in TX. I'm sure you got out a lot cheaper on your own, though. VERY cool. I love it. Actually planning on buying a L67 Fiero here pretty soon.

Thanks, I got the drive train for about $2,000. The interior was about $1,000.
No way could I do this for a "job" WAY to much work to actually make money.
But it is a truly unique Fiero.

I wish I knew how to do any of that. Love all the custom work. Any room for turbo in there? Just curious.

Thanks, no room for a turbo. I don't want to cut into my trunk. My wife and I took the car on a three day trip. That is where the vid came from. If I cut my trunk like some others have done to their Fiero, I could not take our cloths. BUT if I did cut the trunk I guess I could do a turbo? To be honest, I would love to install a turbo. I just don't want to spend the $,$$$ on one right now.
Do you have a system, cheap? LOL.

I plan on an LS6 intake swap. I am getting 25mpg with the DOD. But this is a toy and the extra power is worth the extra gas it will use. And a 6 speed manual would top it all of nicely.

Just curious, I'm deciding beween an LSx RX-7 or Turboing the GXP... The kit is only $5,500 plus shipping

6-speed would be awesome.

Yes the dash is a 08 Malibu and the radio, HVAC controles, gauges, steering colum and all switches are 06 Monte.
I wanted the Malibu dash but had to use the Monte electronics to comunicate with the Monte BCM for all the normal Monte functions to work properly.

My first car was an 88 Fiero GT. I loved it, and still miss it sometimes! This is like pure car heaven for me, a Fiero with the throbbing V8 it always deserved! Congrats on building a truly unique car, it looks and sounds awesome!
