Are those considered W cars? Even so I'm sure he was meaning a more modern one. There have been several v8s swapped into fieros...from carbed 400 small blocks to 350 TPIs to LT1s and LS1s

I've been personally seen it done in a fiero at a local car show.
I've also seen a supercharged GTP motor in one too.

I dont know what is needed to do it though.

Neat, fast, and still boring fwd. I wouldnt buy a v8 fwd car if it had 600 hp. Its just not right.

The LS4 going into a W-body should only make things easier.
