Scrapyards have lots of Northstars nowadays, so getting one in decent shape shouldn't be that tough.

Oh yes.. That anemic lil 2.8L was the first thing I pulled out. And you're right, The Northstar is a great engine. It looks just incredible in there too (Actually weighs 6lbs less then the 2.8 v6). It is kind of a bear to get it to fit, so I'm trying to decide between that, or a 3800 Supercharged from a Grand Prix GTP.

I did alot of research on this back in 97-98 when I was racing a base model Cavalier.. I was really surprised at First, but turns out it's just a rebadged chevy with right hand drive.. But the Toyota emblems and the huge TRD decal I put on mine sure pissed off alot of the domestic guys around here.
