V-8 FIERO ENGINE CONVERSION KITS

by V-8 ARCHIE

Our Fiero V-8 Engine Conversion Kits allow you to install a small block Chevy engine into any 1984 thru 1988 Pontiac Fiero. They allow you to retain all stock options, including a/c. This kit is designed to be a bolt on installation with no frame cutting required. We have kits for all stick shift and automatic Fieros. The weight gain for a 4 cylinder to V-8 swap is about 150 pounds, depending on the V-8 engine used. Handling is affected slightly at the most. Engines that can be used include any small block Chevy from 1968 to present, note: on the 400 c.i. engine, our flywheel will need to be balanced with your crank.

Using engines in the 250 to 400 h.p. range, we have run in excess of 500,000 miles on our test cars, and have had no drive line failures. It should be noted, however, even though we have had no failures, that any motor vehicle can fail if subjected to severe and constant abuse. Contrary to some of the claims made by others, we guarantee that the stock fiero axles won't break.

We have been producing, selling and installing the V-8 Archie Fiero V-8 Conversion Kits for nearly eleven years now. There are now more than 700 of these v-8 conversions on the road in all 50 States, Canada, Central America, Europe and the Middle East. We first introduced our kit to the public in early 1988.

Our V-8 kits are shipped from stock within days of your order.

When buying kits of this type, be sure to compare and know exactly what is included and not included. Check out the supplier. You would not believe how many of these people will tell you what ever you want to hear to get your down payment. Check on the manufacturer through B.B.B., Kit Car Magazine, Kit Car Illustrated and the Complete Guide to Specialty Cars, be satisfied with the product and the supplier's reputation. Buy from the source, not from some want-to-be. Remember, if a deal sounds to good to be true, it most likely is. Don't send your down payment to some clown who hopes to get enough down payments to produce the parts that he claims to have "ready to ship". We are a S.C.V.A. Charter Member.

V-8 FIERO ENGINE SWAPS ARE NOT A SIDE-LINE WITH US.

GO WITH THOSE WHO KNOW HOW TO DO IT RIGHT.

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL & CORRECT V-8 FIERO KIT, NOT A COPY OF ANOTHER KIT.

We did all of our own research & development, so we understand this kit better than anyone else can.

You have seen our V-8 Fiero kits in action in all of the major publications. Check the march 1992 issue of Peterson's Kit Car Magazine. You can also check the coverage of the "Run and Gun" events of the last several years in Kit Car Illustrated Magazine. We drive our cars to the events. We don't just show up for the shows but we show up at the racing events too. Prices for our V-8 conversion kits start at $950. Unlike the people who have copied my kits, Jazz and Ron's Mechanical and others, I can supply you with all of the parts you'll need. You won't have to call me later to supply you the flywheels or other parts that they can't supply. You won't have to call me later to rescue you from the want-to-be who can't originate something of his own design and is unable to supply the parts he doesn't understand.

I STAND BEHIND MY KIT. THE ADDRESS I USE IS MY HOME ADDRESS. NO POST OFFICE BOX NUMBERS HERE. THE PHONE NUMBERS RING MY HOME PHONE, NOT SOME ANSWERING SERVICE.
