Re: Camaro Z28 Northstar.....
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.

I guess it takes someone who's been here a while, like us.
