Heads have fully been ported and polished, 3 angle comp valve grind, SI stainless steel valves have been back cut.

Both heads fully assembled

My Cam by the way is the Compucam 2030. Im also running a high volume oil pump. Harmonic ballancer was also ballanced as well as the 88 style fly wheel. The engine has been fully ballanced and blue printed.

The next three pictures ar of my work that I went through to start this swap. these are old pictures. About a year to be exact.


The ol'Duke out of the car. Like how I am moving the cradle and engine assembly around?

My, my, my, what a mess. Can hardly see the ol'duke under it.

This si currently what my Fiero looks like. I hope it has not settled. As in the frame maybe bending or something. Cuzz its been up like that for about a year. I have already switched the fuel pump to a V-6 and reinstalled the tank.

well you just start. As you start to disconect stuff you start to know where the project is going or what direction. Thats what I did. And my budy and I used basic hand tools and it also helps to have air tools as well.

Oil cap sticker look familiar? Its from Rodney Dickman. Thanks Rodney.

All i have to do now is install the starter, Alt., and attach the tranny and then I can start putting things back into the car This all will probably happen this month.
