Blair also has taken me on that supercharged thrill ride,
it's way to fast for me, my hair looks like Glen's now, but I did order one just for the sound and looks! |

I'm working on a 3800 S/C swap right now, and I'm still a little leary on some of the details. If you would be so gracious as to send me a copy of your list, that would be awesome. Then I can compare with what I have, and see if I'm missing anything. As far as what you need from the car, if it bolts to the engine- save it.(including hardware) You can toss what was not needed when you are done. Make sure that all parts of the engine wiring harness are saved. The ALDL connector that matches the engine should be used when installing the engine into the Fiero. I'll post more on this latter.

Just finished my new fuel rails for my 3800sc, what do you think?
I made them by cutting down a stock over the blower mono rail and silver soldering new ends on them that fit the airoquip fitting. Then it was just a matter of making the new flex lines. I did the same with the stock fuel regulator and remounted it out of the way. |

lol, I read this to Kerstin and she said "well how will he fix that?"...lol Easy fix...325/25/20 Michelins Pilot Sport 2 ! They grip like velcro, no spinning and rockets straight like a slot car, but one new problem is your passenger's neck snaps (just ask Blair)!

You're right Blair, now finally my clutch is broken in, I'm very surprised the 325 wide Michelins actually spin right to the redline in 1st gear (the 2.8 wouldn't even make a chirp) , so with Blair's tires it would be very scary, but much more fun !

I still think that we need to get all the cars together and either take them all the Mission Raceway, or an Auto cross event or a full on road race event. The road racing would be the most fun, however might be a bit on the MUCH side for some people. Teching the cars, setting them up, then driving at really fast speeds.
