Electric Fiero

I've also converted an '88 Fiero to electric. I started with a 4 cyl w/ 5-speed. The stock curb weight of the vehicle was 2495 lbs. The Tech-4 engine weighed 301 lbs without the flywheel/clutch/pressure plate. The reason for the heavy weight of the Fiero is due to the "Space Frame" which completely surrounds the vehicle. The body panels that all "bolt-onto" the frame are FRP, or Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic.

It is posted on the evalbum, along with my other EV's.

I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have concerning converting a vehicle ot electric.
