Simple answers (since nobody's done it)

Yes, anything's possible.
Yeah, sure, but be prepared for an installation headache
Depends on how handy you are with installation

Awesome idea, yeah, but costly... even more costly if you have someone install it for you. (computer issues, bracketry, etc) It'd probably be much more cheaper & reliable to put a V8 in instead.

there is a sc setup for the 2.8 fieros.. that should work with any fuel injected ohv 60* v6 (2.8, 3.1, 3.4).. the main concern with that setup is, the fiero is a east-west setup (front wheel drive setup, except at the rear of the car) and the f-body is a north-south setup (rear wheel drive setup).. that would change some of the brackets..

if u could handle the install urself (good luck with it) it would cost bout $1k w/ 50-80% increase in hp (ie: 100 hp before = 150-180 hp after).. if u had a shop install it, look at adding at least $3-4k onto the price.. a bottom end rebuild would also be highly reccommend too (thats another $500-$1k in parts and twice in labor)
