jhhahahah nothin rly to be proud of but it was fun... so i was on my way to school and i stop at the stoplight with like a ok size 2 lane strech till it goes to 1 lane. so a kid i no pulls up in this old cady deville i think with a northstar v8 and i reved it up, he retured the gesture, light turned green and we gunned it, i had like a length, then my aod shifted into second and i took off, i was about up to 55 and the other lane ended and i had to turn into the neighborhood i park in... i just thought id share lol it was pretty fun but i want you to know im not stupid about it, the last thing i want is a ticket, just felt like telling u guys about my not so glorious victory

 

umm..nice kill i guess

 

hey dude my friend has a 98 deville with the V8 northstar and we were going to race just to see who would win (i have a stock 97 v6) even though i figured he would because i've taken a ride when hes floored it

the northstar V8 Caddie comes with 300 Hp and 1/4 mile time of 15 something and mine is 17 something so ya....

 

ya there heavy but not the slowest thing in the world this one was older tho, lol thanks for having my back tho

 

i dont know about all the years that they made the northstars, but im pretty sure they had like 240 hp or somethin around that

 

Im a Caddy guy so I'll speak on this one.. The Northstars came out in 1992. They come with 2 different styles. The 4.7L has 275hp and the 4.6 has 300.(yes the smaller engine is more powerful) They are very smooth engines. The problem is, the are very heavy and the gearing is no where near sports tuned. All Northstars up untill 2005 are FWD. I had a 1996 Eldorado and a 2000 Deville. There is one way to tell which one has a 275hp or a 300hp motor and thats the emblem on the back of the car. For example.. A Seville that says "SLS' or "SHS" has the 275hp motor. A Seville that has STS or a Deville that says DTS has the 300hp motor. The 275hp motor has more low end torque but the 300hp has better gearing. Most of them do the 1/4 in 15secs or so.

 

wow, good answer

 

some of those caddies are fast, good job bro

 

CTS-Vs & STS-Vs are especially fast.
