""Interesting. The engine, for all its drawbacks, dioes make gobs of power.
I also heard Duntov nixed a prototype Fiero with an aluminum turbomotor in it because "We'd never sell another Corvette if that car is produced". Any truth to that?
""
I had never heard that but sounds reasonable but I think Duntov was long gone from GM around Fiero time--not sure though.
