Fiero Throtle body

Will the fiero throtle body fit our cars i saw in in the junk yard along with valve covers and the throtle body went somewhat to the right it wasent strait will that affect the throtle cable at all? BTW i saw a 4 cylynder firebird still there with the enigne fully intact just needed inerior work and some minor body work.

BTW did fiero's come with 3.1 L engines???? because i herd that the fiero intake says 2.8 and the one i saw said fiero on it... BTW i ment to say intake manafold not throtle body... But would the throtle body on that fit as well? And the intake curves to the right that was my question if it will workor will i hae to modify stuff.

Yes the parts will fit our cars. As long as its a 2.8L fiero and not a four. I heard the fiero intake manifolds are better somehow, and also that fieros had a holley throttle body

The stock Fiero Holley TB is 52mm the same CMF as our cars just made by holley.

A Fiero plenium and TB on our cars would face the firewall it won't work.

the fiero TB will not work on RWD motors (different linkage) works only on Transverse motors.

The part will swap over.
Will anything like cable or smog hose stuff from your Camaro be able to be hooked up?
NOPE!
Only grab the Fiero valve covers.
Really does suck that the Fiero stuff won't easily swap.
All one needs do is take Fiero top intake stuff & weld on a F Body throttle body neck.
I know someone that wil weld aluminum, too. He's in Torrance.

Yeah, I finally (after how many years?) saw a Fiero v6 throttle body over the weekend, with "holley" stamped right on it... and saw the linkage problem that Karl mentioned a lonnng time ago. I imagine that new linkage would have to be made- somehow- I know it's possible, but don't ask me how!

It may not be a cheap option but new cars are getting those electronic throtles. no cable.
