Don't think our engine is related to a northstar. I mentioned it because if I keep my vehicross long enough its going to be getting an lc3. I agree with most of what you say but just wish he'd pick a better engine lol, even the v6 from a 350z or something. But if he ends up building the engine and using a custom piston drilled to handle the oil issue, ill be interested in what comes out of it. Plus he's not going to be tuning the engine, just piggybacking and I think hes going to run into problems. My 2 cents.
