TS phinger23 04-03-2005, 03:04 AM With enough money, skills and time many things are possible with cars. TS well, yea true, but the average joe, with enough money to fix the car right, and not pour money into this LT1 motor i have now if its not worth it kinda person Z28SilverBullet 04-03-2005, 05:35 AM Probably better off fixing the LT1. Engines that aren't supposed to be in certain cars usually involve more than just swapping in the motor. BLACKBIRD8200 04-03-2005, 10:43 AM if you thought your LT1 was bad. wait to till you get your NS they're junk i have heard way to many bad things about them! and good luck changing your starter on the NS. SFB767 04-03-2005, 12:10 PM Isn't the Northstar DOHC V8 physically larger than an LT1? I would think so due to having two cams in each head like the Ford DOHC V8, which is larger than a SBC. If this is true, you might have less room to work in your engine bay if you go through with the transplant. anasazi 04-03-2005, 12:25 PM Isn't the Northstar DOHC V8 physically larger than an LT1?

Turbowash IIRC. He had a black LT1 car with a Turbo Northstar on Fikse's. Pandamonkey 04-03-2005, 03:13 PM There was a member here a few years back. Turbowash IIRC.

MotorCityNova572 04-03-2005, 03:47 PM if im not worng ant the starter in side the motor block..??? Thats just what i was told by a co-worker 95GRNZ 04-03-2005, 10:39 PM well, yea true, but the average joe, with enough money to fix the car right, and not pour money into this LT1 motor i have now if its not worth it kinda person Fix your current engine or replace it with another LTI (or LS1). Much easier and cost effective and achievable on a budget.. BLACKBIRD8200 04-04-2005, 06:05 PM if im not worng ant the starter in side the motor block..??? Thats just what i was told by a co-worker you are correct. and the block is two peices put together. junk jakef2003 04-05-2005, 06:25 PM I remember that......I was just about to mention it myself.
