Real Fiero Tech

Notchie looks cool with the NASCAR style spoiler

They both using 4.5?

Gmparts direct shows the cams as discontinued. Howard did a part number search, and found some places with them still in stock according to their website. So I took a chance and ordered it, and they claim to have shipped with a tracking number. I'll wait for it to arrive to verify if it indeed is th...

Is that top for the gas tank the same diameter as fiero?

Solder joint in the harness at the connector. By the time I got it fixed, batt was dead. Leaving the key on for 30 min drained mine down to unstartable. I think Odyssey even states the time to discharge somewhere. It's not a battery you have in a car that you take to a drive in(I'm old) and leave th...

If any EFI system of the last 25 years is working correctly, you'll never need to crank for 30 seconds. Mine wasn't working correctly. But in the diagnosing trying to figure out what was wrong, the battery took a shit. Turned out to be a broken solder joint at the crank sensor. It didn't happen in ...

I tried the 680 several times. If you have to crank for more than 30 secs forget about it.

I went back to the standard 40 lb batt. Wasn't worth weight savings

Valve cover.

Progress has been slower than slow but I got some work done the last couple of days. The front of the engine is back on, timing cover, new waterpump, and the coolant crossover at the heads as well as the lower manifold. I also painted the firewall side vc white, not sure if I'll install it but I wan...

Have a part number of what you're using? https://fuelsafe.com/1pla75/ From my layman's perspective I can justify the cost of the sealed nut ring but the plate and gasket are a little excessive. Hmm. I need to start writing stuff down. I did measurements on the tank along time ago and now I can't re...

Have a part number of what you're using?

I'm installing a slightly modified OEM 2020 Camaro SS/ZL1 fuel module into the fiero tank via a FuelSafe.com access panel and nut ring. The SS/ZL1 pump plays nicely with the ATS-V FPCM at it's maximum 15a at the standard GM PWM freq plus all the fuel pickup bonuses plus only 137$ with tax and shipp...

Very cool

I installed some gaskets today. You tore up your flooring.

I'm slacking in life

I like where this is going. Great documentation

I also created a Rumble page to fuck with rei and Mrs diaz. LMAO

80% humidity in Dyno cell. In January. Brutal. Great job getting it there! Are you thinking the stack intake is the big difference between this build and your last one? It was 60 degrees and 40% humidity the day before. A southwestern front moved in the day of the Dyno bringing back in higher temps...
