>One more comment about this mechanical stuff.  The tranny's out of S-10's
were bolted to 4 and 6 cylinder engines.  The Northstar >puts out a bunch
more torque then those engines.

Good point Joe, very good point.  I've seen people bolt larger engines into
smaller cars, and sometimes the tranny fries, sometimes not.  The Fiero
tranny seems to hold up to a 350 pretty well.  Its interesting how some
parts are overdesigned, others are not.
