Thread: 3800 s/c fiero swap

im looking of trying to get a fiero in the 11's to low 12's. i have been out of the 3800 world for awhile now and need some advice. im thinking or doing a 3.0-3.2 pulley, intercooler, headers, 160-180 stat, ported heads maybe bore it .20 over? can anyone help me i dont know what supporting mods i would need with that pulley or if there is a easier way to go?

thanks Brandyn

yea injectors i would use 42.5 ones as for ported everything? and i am worried about KR i know it can be bad in these motors

a northstar throttle body i know bolts up is that good? and they do run 10's easy but this will be a car i will drive often not a dd but pretty often

nitrous or turbo

i dont really want to go turbo if i have to go turbo to get the car in the 11's then i will stay with the s/c. i love the s/c i had a 3800 s/c 04' GTP comp G before i got a 06' GXP

what kind of cam would be recommended? for the build?
