Funny...remember that when you're doing a high school or college paper, or especially your master's or doctoral thesis. That'll get you off the plagiarism hook every time...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plagiarism :

"...An example of plagiarism would be copying this definition and pasting straight into a report"

Just some lighthearted irony to finish out the work day...

WTF is a "Northstar 350"?

Reading all these BS "facts" you continue to spout is getting old.




Are you just trying to start trouble? WTF is your problem dude? Sorry, I forgot that they were only 4.6Ls. I made an typo, and I would like to rectify the situation. There are Northstar 350s however, and one of them sits in the CTS-V. If you don't believe me, then too bad, it is different than the GTO and Corvette motor, I promise you. Do your homework before you jump my case people. The Northstar 350 is hand-assembled if I recall correctly. It still stands, GM has been putting V8s in FWD platforms forever, so don't have a hissy fit.

You started "trouble" by posting bunk that is pulled directly from your arse. Try posting FACTS once in a while.

Cadillac doesn't believe you either. You should note that 6.0L does NOT equal 350 cubic inches and that and LS2 V8 is NOT a DOHC of the Northstar variety.

Hey Big Money! I was wrong and right at the same time! again! So it isn't a Northstar, but it isn't an LS2 either. Look at the pre'06 models and you'll see a *gasp* 346 cubic inch Chevrolet-designed, Cadillac-built LS6! Not a 6.0L like the '06. It is unique to Cadillac as it has less power than the Corvette-spec LS6. SO IT WASN'T A NORTHSTAR. IT WAS ONLY CADILLAC SPECIFIC! YOU COULD NEVER CONFUSE THE TWO COULD YOU? OOOPPSSS! it happens to everyone. Apparently even you! SOrry if it seemed like I was spouting $#it. I was recalling incorrectly, but it STILL stands that GM has been cramming V8s into FWD vehicles since dirt was invented...

Besides, Big Money, do I even know you? Why the beef? What Have I done to YOU?

You know what, let's just drop this. Neither of us were completely right. Let's just leave it at that. It wasn't a Northstar, but it was a 5.7L. End of story.
