Mar 26, 2023 · A Fiero with ~200hp and the 60 degree V6 firing order noise would be pretty great and should be achievable with a lower boost setup. I know the 60-v6 isn't a powerhouse but if you keep the goals realistic and don't push to hard it should be …

Jul 1, 2014 · the fiero swaps i found with a manual used a rwd flywheel, machined down to use the ring gear from a 142 tooth typical flywheel that something of a cavalier/cobalt/s10/etc would use on a little guy engine.

Apr 25, 2011 · the fwd LS4 5.3 also has the proper fwd 60 degree V6 bellhousing pattern, so no adapters would be needed.. the front of the cranksahft is a bit shorter than a regular LS engine and all the accessories are tucked in closer, too.. it might be fun finding a real manual trans that would hold up to it, tho, if that's part of the plan..

Mar 6, 2018 · And if you think it's a pain to reach the sparkplugs on the 3.8L, wait until you shoehorn the LS4 in there. They are a pain to work on. And they are backed by a dodgy transmission. A tweaked 3.8L can make just as much power, and more, as an LS4 for less money, while being easier to work on.

Jun 14, 2011 · It's called the LS4, and it's an all-aluminum 5.3L. It came in the Bonneville GXP, the Impala SS, and the Buick Somethingorother Super. The Monte Carlo SS may have gotten it, too. Maybe even the last Grand Prix? Anyways, it has it's own auto trans that can barely hold it (GM had to de-tune the snot out of it).

Dec 15, 2015 · Million man subscribed 1320video has caught a mega sleeper at the dragway recently being a Pontiac Fiero strapped with a blown 5.3-liter LSx V8. Ripping off the line with 560 horsepower this mid-engine American economy sporty looking car is now getting into the low 10 seconds for the quarter mile.

I ran the E40 with a 2006 SSR calibration with my Fiero swap. I tried the Impala SS pedal with the SSR calibration, but it was a no-go. Once I purchased the right pedal, then I notice what was happening with the TPS voltages with the SSR pedal, the two TPS voltages went the same direction, not opposite.

Jul 10, 2012 · Conquest351 wrote: The GM F40 transaxle from the Cobalt SS bolts right up to the FWD LSx engine. Fiero guys have been doing that for years. In an AW11, awesomeness ensues. And that trans will grenade in somewhat quick order if you were to build the 5.3L. That, and there are already a few 5.3L fiero's running around.

May 18, 2015 · If you have ever wondered what is the fastest and most dramatic way to kill yourself, I found an answer for you. One wonderful eccentric has decided that he wanted to build up his 1984 Pontiac Fiero, so he crammed a 455 Oldsmobile V8 in the back and slapped a gigantic supercharger on top. He added an intercooler and fuel injection as well.

Oct 18, 2019 · I found a supposedly running LS4 from a 2007 Monte' Carlo and i've been learning about the "red headed stepchild" of the LS world, in particular about the transmission-facing starter. I would typically just say "huh", but recently I found a World-class T5- likely from a 1990s firebird or Camaro- at a junkyard for a song and I can't help but ...
