my 1986 pontiac fiero 2.5L?

[adam w]

well.... im thinking really hard about jerking the motor and installing a ethier 2.8 v6gt motor or a 4.9 cadilac motor in my fiero . well i noticed today that the way the tranny is...the belt is on the right side...i was looking at it like a back wheel drive and my question is that if i dicide to do a cady motor then will the belt be facen the same way or will it face the back or front?

oh and if i do the cady motor which i probly will...do i need custom axles made?? or will my axles off my fiero(stock) work on the cady tranny?

I would recommend looking at installing a Buick 3.8 supercharged motor in it.

The trans mounts in the stock location so the axles are stock.
The engine sits transverse mounted just like the V-6.

Here is what a 4.9L looks like in a Fiero:
