I've researched the Northstar a few occasions. I wanted to put it into my 3000GT and make it RWD. there are plus's and minus's to the Northstar.

Plus: 300HP on tap fro mthe 4.6, all aluminum, different
Minus: head bolts are fine thread so they pull out of heads, and all hell breaks loose, alot of the setups won't mate up to the bellhousing, not alot of aftermarket.
I dont think that swap is stupid at all, as long as it isnt their DD. if you have money, and an idea you can follow through, and execute it properly, who are we to judge their build idea? One day when things settle down for me I'd like to persue the Northstar in the 3000GT, and make it resemble an IMSA car.
