I guess I'd rather wait and see what unfolds. And we should have figured he'd tub the rear, for the sizes he wants. Anyway, this got me thinking of a project someone put up on another site, with a few other added complications, including taking a mid engine car and making it front engine. THIS is a guy you should talk to.. hah. I would imagine when he asked about those tires he got similar responses on the fiero forums... 'Monster' fiero even more scary, that think drinks from the bottle too. but its no 1500hp turbo miata.

I was talking about diffs... but you still have a good point. Searching a bit, the 8.8 does seem to like to grenade a bit, or so people say...

that fiero is sweet!!

No need to roll fenders. Just backhalve and tub it. There was an old drag Miata from Puerto Rico that was tubbed and backhalved. Built up rotary I think.
I'd imagine he's looking at Strange, Dana, or Moser for a diff. Frank |
Thats got to be crazy.
I had a friend with an old 70 chevy C10. He had a small block 400with 450 hp. Then he added a 200 shot of nos. He was out ran by non-turbo 300Z's. If he punched it at 80 it would light the street tires up. I liked that truck, it was crazzzzy. Gas mileage was terrible though, 4 miles to the gallon. |
