Well, since you've commanded everyone who looks at this thread to post a reply, I have a question- How the heck do you work on a car and keep your fingers clean enough to take pictures? I wouldn't want my camera (or camcorder) anywhere near me when I'm up to my elbows in grease and grime. Of course, that may be a sad reflection on how filthy my cars are!
By the way, I'm really enjoying following your progress. Great job!

I think most folks don't reply because they are speechless!!! Hell, I am.
You mentioned how tight it is, you think you'll have a problem with "firewall knock" ? Or you think the car is gonna be so fast that the firewall is goin to move faster than the engine twist!

I figgured you had all solid mounts. It was more of a tongue-in-cheek remark but still.... I guess the cradle is built sturdier than I give it credit for.
As Freddie Kruger would say.."Ahhhhhhh,.... What a rush!"

not sure on the fuel rail covers but check Ebay. as far as the throttle body cover goes i could make more and with any design or lettering you want but it'd take a deal of persuading. I've made MANY one of a kind pats like this for my car in an effort to have originality in my customization and when i make multiples for other people i lose that. (did that make any sense?)

Yeah I understand. Yours had Fiero GT right? Would you be willing to do say, just Fiero?

I have some fuel rail covers and bolts I'm willing to part with for $100US.
