Have 2006 L26 Top Swap Questions

Hey guys,
Bought a 7k mile L26. We just put some redone L67 heads(new ARP bolts) with LIM and Gen 5. We also used the L26 exhaust on the L67 heads. We plan on using the north* TB and making it throttle cable vs drive by wire. I also want to change the injectors. We are thinking of using the ford lightning ones. What advice do you guys have? Am I missing anything? Thanks.
 


How are you going to make it drive by wire? You could get 60# injectors and go E85 while youre buying injectors. Also you need headers, stock manifolds wont cut it on a top swap motor.
 
Better run a 4.2 pulley with stock manifolds.

Needs headers.

If you change the TB and injectors you need a new custom tune, which I assume you know.

N* is boring, stick with stock untill you can outflow it.

I was saying we are avoiding doing the drive by wire stuff, due to the extra wiring. If there is an easy way to do it, let me know. It is going in a fiero. Thanks for the advice thus far guys.

What year northstar throttle body were you planning on using that was drive by wire, and would need converted to cable driven?
