 Midagi originaalset: Northstar Camaro
http://www.willburns.com/northstar/
Omaniku lühikommentaar:
quote:
The car was originally a V6.
No, the engine did not just bolt in. Everything had to be fabricated.
The exhaust is all custom made, except for the B&B 3" exhaust.
The headers are 1 5/8s" that run into a 2 1/2"Y into a 3" pipe into the 3" B&B exhaust. Very straight through and no cats or resinators.
The gearing has only 3.23s right now with a 98 z28 rear end. Its running a 700R4 tranny. I also have the 98+ front brakes and rear.
The motivation was that I was tired of being slow and me and my friend wanted to do this swap. We thought it would be easy, but it came out to be very hard and costly. Everything was fabricated and done at my friends place www.hpsalvage.com He did all the fabricating. ie. (headers,y-pipe,all brackets, etc tons of other stuff.)
I will have a write up on it sometime soon and a website for it. With videos and everything so you all can hear what it sounds like.
Sorry if I forgot something...
Thanks everyone
Casey

Miks peaks keegi tahtma Northstari sinna, kuhu sobib ka Chevy small-block, ja jumaluke, ka Chevy big-block?  |

See ongi asja point, olla originaalne ja samas ka cool !
Mis SB ja BB puutub, siis kumbki ei sobi sinna autosse, vähemalt mitte ilma kere ümberehitusteta. Ja küünlaid saab BB'l vahetada ainult mootorit maha võttes.
BTW. üks kommentaar selle auto kohta oligi, et "mida kõik inimesed on valmis tegema, et küünalde vahetamist kergemaks muuta." Teatavasti on see operatsioon neljanda põlve autodel täielik peavalu. |

My bad, millegipärast kujutasin ette, et 3. põlve autost jutt. Aga huvitav, kui keeruline on 4. põlve autos V6->LT1 swap? Tõenäoliselt siiski lihtsam, ja tulemuseks oleks suurem ja moditavam mootor. |

LT-1 4-gen on ju igaühel ja milleks sellist ehitada, kui saab ka osta ja ilmselt odavamalt. Stock vs. stock peaks Northstar kübe kiirem olema aga ehitamise osas on Sul loomulikult õigus.
Edit: tsekkasin järele, Sul siiski pole õigus - Northstarile on enam-vähem kõike performance kama saadaval, nukad kaaned kaasa arvatud. Autole on juba ka nimi välja mõeldud "Camarillac".

No ja tore ka ju, kui Northstar endale mõne tagaveolise rakenduse leiab. |
