Ther Fiero episode is another quick build while we wait for parts on the MK4 SUPRA project! After sitting for nearly 10+ years the fiero (Matt's first car) is given the treatment she needs, a heart transplant. We install a 425hp SBC into the Fiero. Matt made everything last year for it, so it's just a matter of getting everything together and installed!

I’m in the process of finishing up a 3800 sc in my 87 GT it’s been a long process. The getrag 5 speed has always made me nervous. But seeing you guys put a built v8 in there makes me feel better. If anyone is looking to do this swap and it’s your first time, be prepared for a journey. Someone commented they make it look easy. That is an understatement. Thanks guys enjoyed the video.

Awesome! I can tell that your rear springs need to be beefed up because your front end is too light to keep proper camber.... not safe for good braking and already bad understeer these cars have.. (although that part is much better on the '88s for sure). Good luck finishing it up nice... I'll be watching the fun!

I always appreciate swapping a v8 into a small car getting all of the gauges to work can be a chore, especially stock gauges. My swap is a v8 in a 84 datsun s12 getting the original digital gauges to work took time. But I did get them all to work correctly. I dont know if you have a hydraulic or a cable style clutch. I went hydraulic in mine, works well

i wonder if it pushes the front tires. I always though a 3.8 would be a good motor for one of those. One of the GTP supercharged models🤔

Yeah a lot of people go that route with a lot of success! It doesn't push the front tires anymore than it did before or any other mid engine car.

Oh, as the guy was telling the story about losing his license, his boy in the background laughed at him. That was cold. The clutch problem can be resolved from Spec clutches fading. There is an option of swaping a more natural ls4, The ls4 can use a more natural front wheel drive set up, and fuel injection as well. the LS4 just needs to be uncapped from it's poorly intake and exhaust manifold, and have a better cam installed in it. The Holley efi terminatorx engine management system can be used to control it.
