hey guys....i have a 87 gxl that the battery grounded out and now i'm not gettin power to tha coil packs....i'm a rotary fanatic and i love these engines......i was thinking about puttin my current gxl engin in a pontiac fiero.....i was juz lookin for advice and see if this idea would even be possible......guys gimmie some feedback and ideas.....thanx

I'm planning on doing a 13BT fiero at some point, after I finish building my current projects. You might want to contact archie @ v8archie.com, I used to work there and archie knows his stuff pretty well. He's mentioned doing a rotary fiero conversion kit in the past, if you provide the car and engine maybe you guys can work something out. BTW, get an 88 fiero if you do the conversion, it's the only chassis worth investing all the time and money in.

why not put a crate 350 in there? how do u plan on using the tranny?? they have the same setup as a FWD car only in the back. Its probably going to be the same amount of $$$, only 200hp vs 300. I seen one last weekend w/ a lzz crate 350 it was nice.. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/BURNOUT.gif BUt if u love rotaries so damn much i can see going 4 it. I sure do, but i just leave em in the 7s.. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...DIR#>/wink.png

The v8fieros are quick little cars, but even in stock v6 form the weight distribution is a bit rear biased, which some people don't like. Putting a 13B in an 88 would be a nice setup, lighten up the rear end a bit from stock form, good power, high quick revving engine. Seems to be very at home in a fiero in my opinion. Just would be a bitch to do the conversion.

does the crankshaft on a 350 rotate the same direction as the eccentric shaft on a 13b? if so the 13b engine should work, just need a custom conversion kit for the motor to tranny. just my .02 cents , piece

thanx for tha feedback....but muh question is that extra peice i would need for tha transmission...anyone got any idea were i can do somethin like that?

no idea, the weight balance sounds nice though, i forgot about that https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

a very good machine shop slash tranny shop that do business with each other may be able to make you the piece you need, both of these shops would have to be very skilled at this type of work, id like to see a rotary motor in a fiero, they look bad as hell :bigok:
