What about an acura NSX trans? I think Archie adapted one of those to something once in a fiero... That might be a trans behind a high revver, but then again it was behind a V6 so maybe not.

West coast fiero is actually the ones that did that. It probably would work from an RPM standpoint, but it's a very long trans. There was frame notching involved on the fiero.Originally posted by IsaacHayes View PostComment

Would the motor build work? could you mix and match
part to make it work?
3.4 block
2.8 crank
3x00 top-end
iron block 3.4 pistons?
??? rods
I don't know enough about it to know what would be the right parts
but it would be cool to see built..sigpicWhen I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

iron block 3.4 pistons would not work. The rods are all the same, it's the pistons that would have to be custom for the 2.8 crank and 3.4l bore. Might as well get them high compression because shorter stroke makes it easier to run higher compression without pre-ignition because the speed of the piston is less which means less heat...
If going all out I'd do:
3400 block.
3500 heads
2.8 crank & rods
custom pistons, 12:1 or so

Why can't you use iron head 3.4 pistons in a 3400 block? Or can you just not use it with the 2.8 crank?Originally posted by IsaacHayes View PostComment

The crank is the issue. Where the rod height is in the piston needs to be made like the 2.8 pistons...sigpic New 2010 project (click image)
