well the drivetrain is back in the car now and I hade a new top dogboun mount for it as well. now I need to get the low mount alt in place then it is a few days of clean up on the wiring. friday we got it taken apart now today we will start rerunning it. we had to fix a few things on it first some of the sensor wires were run to ground and never hooked up. the pass key was rigged in and the fuel pump someone wired in the relays from the fiero and the donor car to the same thing and it would work when it felt like it.
more to come later.

I like the 3rd one from the left... a lot. I've always felt that your hood vent would look better with no divider in the center. Same for the nose.
Anyway, things are looking pretty good for the FGTO.

Thanks for the comments guys. I do like the more original look but that design is SICK!. Made me lose several nights sleep.
Besides that it would cost to much mula to change the design at this point.
But it's still running through my head.
3800 SC II engine swap is nearing completion. Dean has found several issues with the wiring.

the low mount alt and the dog bone are now finished and installed. we have about 70% of the wiring done now as well. we hope to have it back running by friday.
we had to fix lots of things on the car that were not up to par. like the wiring, the 3 piece coolant hoses the shotout mounts and a few other things but it is all working out nice.
I will try to get some pics of it today and post them this week. we want to get all the wires run and test start the car before we recover the harness to make sure it is all in working order.

Hey Dave, that new concept drawing is full of WIN!
The previous ones with the split openings everywhere looked kinda "busy". But this one is sleek and sexy.

This thing is going to be so cool! I want a ride in it and do the KIA Sole hamster head nod when we pull up next to someone.
