Every now and again I will see a Typhoon or Syclone up for sale on craigslist near me. Wish I had the money...

A buddy of mine just sold his...



Dave, I need a manual 325iX.

I don't care about the engine (could come without one), but it needs goodish paint, and a full drivetrain with a manual transmission.

Believe it or not, I have a soft spot for Berettas.

First I rode in one as a toddler and loved that car, and then when I was 14 a friend from school bought an 89 GTU, Black with red int., 2.8 V6 and... 5 speed.


Car was beast.


I had an '89 Pontiac Firebird with the 2.8L V6, automatic...

That car was cool, but a gutless wonder... it would jet up and down the highway okay, but it couldn't get off the line to save its own life.

I always thought it would be so cool to put a tricked up 455 w/6-speed in it...

two different engine families... even though they shared displacement and general layout, the FWD V6 that 944 was talking about was the Gen II. The F-body soldiered on with the Generation I 2.8L until about 1990. What was incredibly ironic is that you could make a 2.8L V6 run with just a little imagination, so hot rodding how to and some bolt on's. The engines were raced in many circle track applications.

oh and that vintage F-body with a big block... can you say TWIST!
definitely need subframe connectors and mad bracing for that fun.

Ever see a Fiero with a 455 in it?

ahh... well, that explains that. Don't get me wrong, I liked the car just fine... It was just INCREDIBLY weak under the hood.

no. never even heard of such insanity! Surely you jest? I can't imagine cramming a big block in something that tiny.

there's a couple of kits for the swap... a guy in Evensville TN (where I used to live) had a couple of Fieros. One had a 455 taken from a Toronado in it. Another was rocking a 180hp H.O. Quad 4 and the other was a daily driver with a 3800/SC stuffed under the hood. This guy knew Fieros!

Xanadu, I'm with you on the Syclone and Typhoon, those things are insane. I have an '85 S-10 with a now out of production bodykit, and it kind of looks Syclone-y. (Well, not really, but a hell of a lot better than a regular S-10).

edit: And as for me, I'm easy enough to please: '53-'54 Chevrolet Bel-Air, or '57-'58 DeSoto.

I want a 1977 Renault LeCar Turbo.
