Couple of problems may be...

How are you running your exhaust? Cutting trunk out...?

Also... i think that intercooler may be way way too tall. My pulley is DAMN close to the deck lid as it is stock.

Problems--Never heard of such a word before, if an issue comes up, then you work around it. Not really, everything I have done to my motor has already been done before. I am just coping what many others have done so there will be no issues with my setup.

I admit it, I copied the dark gray color off that motor from when I was out there the other day. It seemed to go so well with the silver when I put the 2 colors together.

Very very nice indeed.

I finally have my dog bone mount/tensioner mount completed... Although as you know i have no camera. I took it for a spin and its all good. I DO need a polly version of the mount though. Also appearently my rear right caliper hates me and deided it wanted to not release good and is now a permanent parking brake untill i remove it and figure out why it locked up.

Time for 12" brake upgrade or something. Any suggestions for rear brake upgrade that is AFFORDABLE? I already have the Beretta/Grand Am rear upgrade!

Good to here from you. I gave this thread "bump" .As far as your brake hanging up it sounds like the e-brake cable are frozen. Disconnect to cable on the caliper that is hung up. As far as going to poly on the front engine mount it probably wont be a bad idea.
Ive been slowly progressing with my own swap.
I will be starting my own thread but im not real good at documenting things. Ive spent alot of time detailing things on the engine. Ive finalized my alternator mounting by added an additional brace to the back side of the alternator to the engine block. Ive switch to OBD1 so Ive been in contact with DarthFiero since he will be doing my ECM programing on the 95 Regal 3800.

he has no ebrake on his car since he has grand am front brakes on the rear i thinkthe probly probly is its just frozen solid due to the car hasn;t moved in almost 3 years we had a hell of a time getting it off the trailer when we towed it to his house to do the swap. we had to push it into the garage using his saturn because the breaks where so stiff

Your welcome and thanks for the compliment. The Mutt would enjoy a 380SC w/ a few MODs stuffed in the back. I still plan on coming out your way, maybe when Will gets his car back, we can have that cruise you been talking about.

bump..........

Well i just got my Christmas Presant in a few days ago... Its an SS Intercooler from ZZ Performance. I still have to get a radiator for it though... Loyde sells a setup for like 400$, not to down his excellent work but i dont know if i can spare that extra money at the moment... but probably will anyway. HaHa.

I also picked up another Fiero that i will daily drive soon as i can finish fixing it. Its a 87 SE with 80k... but it isnt in the greatest shape.. still needs a tune up BAD and the brakes arent that good on that either!

bump to save

wow, nice....not bad at all.
scrolling thru some pages in this thread gave me serious flashbacks lol..........well, up to where i changed over to a turbo heh.

I see that almost everyone uses these, but does anyone sell them?? Going to test fit it and paint it tomorrow, just would have been easier to pay someone a few bucks than to grind it out...
