    Yep, that's the one. Replacing the starter motor on a Northstar involves a set of intake gaskets.

        Northstar- Worst engine evar.

        Any motor that has UV dye put in factory because of oil leaks..

          I think this would look badass in a panther.


          kinda looks like the legendary SOHC 427

            I think northstar's are pretty damn awesome-even if they burn some oil. An audi 4.2L DOHC V8 is a sweet sounding small displacement 8 too.

              Yes, they leak, but that's the way chevies are. Run really nicely though.

                  Back on topic... what motor mounts would one use to install a Mod motor into a box Panther? Could one use the mounts from say a '92 Panther? Would the mount vary between 2v and 4v?

                    2V and 4V are the same mount. Panther 4.6 mounts..... some assembly required.....
