Hello to all fellow Fiero enthusiast's. My name is Shayne and I too own a Fiero. Not a pretty one, but a Fiero none-the-less. It's an 84 base model, no options car. I've had a few over the years and was never serious about them until lately. My car is powered by a Duke and an automatic. Yuck, I know. I have gathered many parts this year to help in that department. I have a complete 2003 Ecotec and F23 transmission. As well as a 1995 Northstar. I went to a local salvage yard this past summer and found a fastback GT there. Needless to say, I bought all the fastback related items. So now I have the car, a choice of drivelines, a fastback, and a shed full of parts. I'm not sure which engine I'll be using but I'll keep you all posted with the build. Until then, keep the shiny side up!
Oh, I drive a 97 Jeep Grand Cherokee as a daily driver. It's a 4x4 and did my own propane conversion to it. (.49 cents/litre, woo hoo.)

Welcome aboard Shayne, have fun with the car. If you're going to use the Ecotec, hope you don't see my posting in the Humour section :lol:

I seen two of your posts in the "Humour section". Were you making a poke at my 84? As they were known as "carbecques". LOL. Perhaps as a precaution, I'll always have a bag of marshmallow's ready!

It appears as though most of you are liking the Ecotec. So, that's my choice as well. Why? Because it's still somewhat current, light weight, good HP/litre, lots of aftermarket goodies, and, because I already have one! I have it sitting on the cradle in the mock up stages. I'll be sure to post pics as I get closer to the actual build. Right now I have a few rust issues to contend with.
