Sorry guys, i know this is not a Fiero, but its Fiero 'related' since many of you swap 4.9L engines into Fieros For those of you who have known me for years, and those who are new to the group: I am letting go of my baby, because the wifey and I are moving to GA:


The 1981 4.9L V8 Citation X-11 manual 4-speed, - needs no introduction. Approx 12K miles on a GM crate engine, all new parts installed at the time of the engine swap: VDP oem style gauges, suspension bushings, balljoints, struts, shocks, rear springs, brakes, master cylinder, radiator, condenser, steering rack( rebuilt original x-11 ratio ), shift cables, clutch cable, heater core, high volume fuel pump, higher capacity fuel tank, kevlar clutch kit, custom exhaust with flowmaster 3 dual mufflers and a high flow cat, etc, all installed at the time of the engine swap. Runs like a bat out of hell, sounds amazing, sooo much fun to drive, but the body is in rough shape, need rust repair and paint. Over $7000 invested in the car in parts, asking $3000 OBO


This is priced to sell. For anyone whoever wanted to own a V8 Citation X-11, this is your chance to get it!
If you have a pristine citation or A-body GM car( celebrity, ciera, century, etc ) already, and wanted that extra V8 power, the entire engine swap is easily transferable, take all the guesswork out of your swap, and save a TON of money by buying this one, plus you will have a very nice Interior optioned Citation to pull parts from. '81 x-11's arguably have the best Interior options out of all the years. This one has the Faux leather/vinyl black interior with chrome trim on the interior, it really pops visually in person.
here's a few pics and a video of the '81 4.9L V8 Citation X-11 being started and revv'd


i didn't do any touch ups to the car, the paint is dirty and very oxidized, there's no point

shares the same drivetrain, same engine, same cradle, same suspenison in the frotn as is in the rear of the fiero...hence why the 4.9L V8 swap works wel in the citation X-11

Noticed in one of the pics there is another x-11, are you selling that one as well or maybe a two for one deal?

I think it would make a really fun sleeper. Only problem I see with it would be traction, and to get a car with a 12,000 mile motor for 3k doesn't seem like a bad deal at all. I kind of wish I could buy it to use as a winter car, or swap that low mileage motor into my 91 Eldorado and resell that will my old motor.
