Thread: Twisted T bucket build

Tweet

Mr. Blue,

Yes, it is a 97 Cad Northstar motor. I designed and built the individual throttle body fuel injection system myself a couple years ago for a Northstar Fiero project. I've built and sold a couple of them, and had this one "left over" so I'm using it on the T. the throttle bodies began life on an 07 Susuki GSXR 600 bike. fabricated manifold, caddy fuel rail, injectors, most sensors etc. currently using a Holly Commander ECM and it runs pretty well.

Whiplash,

The headlights came from E-bay. they were new aftermarket and listed to fit various big bikes.
I know what you mean about the forum "family". my family lives on the other side of the tracks however, so I spend most of my time over there and only visit here on occation. lots of good people here also, mind you, but just not my normal hangout.
Boy do I know about getting carried away on rebuilding a project . I can certainly relate to your story. that's the whole enjoyment of hot rodding however. build em' the way YOU like em to be.

Cheers,
Russ

Well it certainly is a neat looking, alternative engine for a rod. Very cool!

I'm curious what the cooling fan relay issue you had was if you don't mind saying? I just got my fan wired yesterday and I must admit I had to close my eyes and guess which terminal to wire to the fan pos. wire and which to the battery maybe it doesn't matter, but either way it turns on

Cool looking engine too!
