Short block means the engine has no cylinder heads or intake
This will make the job easier, but the engine needs these components.
The trans has to be relocated, the drive shafts changed, the water pump on the engine will need to be remote mounted and a special adapter kit and harmonic balancer fited for the small block chev conversion.
The last one I did took about 100 hours.
Good Luck
There's a kit for that. Check the internet for fiero clubs and ask around.
YES! You can put ANY small block Chevy into a Fiero. Visit here, http://www.v8archie.com/, there you can find the conversion kit (minus the engine) and answers to all of your questions.
Yes. Any Short Block Chevy will fit.
Yes, a 3.1 will fit in the Fiero. They are the same block.
Yes.
Yes it will fit. This distributor will fit all small block and big block Chevrolet engines.
it will fit on any Chevy SMALL BLOCK of the same generation of your LT1
Yes there is room for it to fit.
The 5.7 heads will work if they have the smaller 184 intake valves . Or you will have to bore the block over to get the 194 ,200,or 202 intake valves to fit into the cylinder if not it will lock it up when the valve opens and hits the edge of the block
Yes it will, it is the same bolt pattern.
No.
Theoretically, yes.
