project reach-around
well now that I have some cash from parting the talon out it is time to finally put my 86 fiero gt back together. so far I have swapped it to a 5 speed from an auto and have a whole bunch of parts to put the engine back together.
some pics of some parts http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t...tures006-2.jpg http://i161.photobucket.com/albums/t...tures007-1.jpg that would be a complete 383 stroker kit and a ceramic sprung 6 puck act clutch also have remote oil filter electric water pump shorty headers bosch high flow fuel pump edelbrock intake holley carb msd coil msd distributor msd control box ordering a comp 264/280 cam w/ hydrolic lifters and heavy springs the complete engine build with everything cost less than the pistons and rods for the talon. once the talon is out of the garage this weekend I will get some pics of the car. |

Re: project kick my ass
There is already one of these running around, but the guy keeps destroying transmission or other driveline parts.
|
Re: project kick my ass
yeah that can happen, but doesn't every dsm running over 400whp destroy stock trans and other drive line parts. hence this is not my daily driver.
