Anyone know?
A friend at work the other day told me he had read in the local paper that next year the North Star powered caddys are getting the newer 5.7 V8 that corvetts have in them and that the Grand Prix GTP Was not going to be a super charged 3800 but, getting the North Star V8????? I also heard that 2004 was the last year the Bonneville SSEI was going to be super charged. Does this mean a North Star in a Bonneville? I have no facts. Justa rumor.
I don't get out much. Thanks.

I've seen GXP'* run the 1/4....no contest at this point in time on which i would choose. The SSEi is by far its superior in power. Torque makes horsepower, and low down the northstar doesnt have it. It will scream up top, but for 1/4 racing the SSEi is it, hands down.
