Re: Northstar V8 swap ?
It's been done in a Cavalier. I actually saw the car at the J Body Club of Ontario Bash last June at St Thomas Dragway.
It's really tight and unless you are very good with a welder and an experienced hot-rodder, forget it.
It will become one of those stuck in the garage 10 year projects that never gets completed.
Think 3400/3500 and make life easier for yourself.
