a guy I know did a small block v8 swap into his fiero. Did it pretty cheap but it involved A TON of work.

he converted it to a front mounted engine car, and poured cememnt in the rear for weight lol… alot of fabrication was required from what I remember. Obviously it wasn’t a show stopper, but it was going to be a rocket ship… unfortunitly though, his garage burned down (with the car in it) before he could finish it ☹

That was just the Fiero gods getting back at him for making their perfect MR layout into some bastardized cement filled FR.
