Will these headers/turbo work...
This is a kit for a fiero 2.8-3.1-3.4, decent price, and is available currently until Doward's hits the market... also has headers... Think they will work with the v-6 F-body?

Without even looking, no. The fiero is a transverse mid-engine car. Neither the exhaust plumbing or the turbocharger location will take an F-body's engine compartment into consideration. Likely end up with the turbo trying to sit in a strut tower or in the firewall..
The turbo itself would work, probably even the oiling system, perhaps just about everything but the exhaust.. but that's alot to pay if you're not using the exhaust components.

Thanx for the input, thought it just might work with all the room in front of my engine. Maybe by the time i get my modded 3.4 in, the vortex turbo kit will be ready.

The setup for the fiero would more than likely put the turbo inside of you dash. Those polished stainless headers look just like the manifold that came from the factory on my fiero I had a few years back except in stainless.
