I drive a 85 Gt, with the V6 but have 2 others as parts cars. No other owner has changed the ratios as I have standard transmissions in all 3 of them. I do most of my own work, oil on a fiero is no issue. Most recently I hit a deer and just finished changing parts and getting a new windshield in it (and added too many deer whistles).

I would like to convert one of the parts cars to electric, but the costs are kinda messed up.

Look up a Chevy spark EV, they were going for legit nothing a little while ago, might make a good donor car

Good idea, not many ever came here but should be cheaper then other options.
