To remove the engine from a 1986 Fiero, first disconnect the battery and drain the coolant and oil. Then, remove the air intake assembly, exhaust system, and any electrical connections to the engine. Support the engine with an engine hoist, detach the engine mounts, and finally, lift the engine out of the car while ensuring that all components are cleared. Be sure to follow a detailed service manual for specific instructions and safety precautions.
Yes
There is someone with a Olds 455 in his Fiero, but he had to remove the trunk.
Drop the cradle & engine together
No the transmission does not have a governor.
There are two horizontal bolts at the front of the cradle, and two verticle bolts at the rear. You do of course have to deal with the engine, transmission, brakes and suspension also.

The 2.8 V-6 engine was first used in the Fiero in the 1985 GT. It was called a 2.8H.O. engine and had 140 HP. It was the same in 1986. However, the same engine was used in other GM cars but had 130HP. In 1988 Fiero horsepower was reduced to 135. how ever they say 140 HP but dyno tests proove that the 86 fiero gt has 200 HP
Yes. The THM125C has a governor. The governor is just below the speedometer sensor. 1986 Pontiac fiero service manual section 125C page 22.
Yes. Cradles were all the same till 88.
Most (not all) Fiero engines require the engine be removed from the car and the seal removed after that. The engines use a one piece seal in most engines. It is also possible to remove the transmission to do this, but either way you need to separate the engine and trans, pry out the old seal, and install new.
Remove rr wheel and unbolt/swing strut out of the way. Crazy I know but that's the deal
