Real Fiero Tech

why not run a 10 gallon, and run a tube(s)/braided hose or whatnot from that to the stock gas tank. that will get you about 20 gallons. I thought about that. Downsides: 1. The dia. of pipe would need to be big to feed the stock tank. Requiring modifications to the stock tank and cell. Otherwise, fa...

Gents, Fuel cell. 22gal in the front of a fiero. Looks like I could do only the plastic bladder as it's separated from the drivers's compartment via a metal firewall. There is debate about this as it would not be protected from puncture. https://farm1.staticflickr.com/619/21449982631_c7e93b5a7c_c.jp...

I daily a six speed bimmer, and it's nice having the double overdrive, although completely unnecessary other than for a fuel economy stand point. I can get 32 mpg on the highway in a 4,000lb vehicle and a V8, neat. There's novelty and some fuel savings to be had with F40. But the cost of the damn t...

Yes. I put a solid double line of tire tracks down a nearby street from a stop with a clutch dump. I took a video of it but it got lost in translation years ago. The V8 put down 381 torque at that time. It gets driven hard, just not abused. It has the stock Cavalier ratios. However, a member here b...

Yeah, that would be me. This is a picture of the helical Quife QDF17B I installed into the transmission I used to make that tutorial. It does not see racing applications other than the occasional street drag or drag strip pass. Very nice. And it's holding up to the v8? How many passes and street mi...

I'm thinking dual duty. Lemons and a rally clunker class that's been kicked around.
2400# 240hp/280tq mid-engine should work on gravel. My last car was 2450# 210hp fwd.

Anyone here used the Vue F23 for race or rally?

Thanks for your help! What lead to the dig was the search for a LSD on the 282. Then I saw this: http://www.fiero.com/forum/Forum1/HTML/087296.html Fiero Quad4 HO F23 (MG3) F23 (M86/M94) Gear/Speed at 5200 Gear/Speed at 5200 Saturn Vue 04-07 Chevrolet Cavalier 1 3.5 29 3.5 27 3.58 23 3.58 26 2 2.05 ...

Gents, I'm building an 88 Fiero with Series II 3800sc for 24hr. of Lemons racing. No street, only road racing. My question, what would be the best trans option? I have the stock fiero 282. I also have a 282 from a HO quad 4, but unfortunately don't have the diff/final drive...:(Also noticed this doe...
