Northstar +Haltech

[Paul Tholey]

I should be able to answer any questions, and get all necessary information
on this conversion.  My father works at a Caddy dealer in Philly.  He has
been there for 17 years, and is very sharp on the electronics and wiring.
Reply diretally to me with specific questions.

not plan on using the stock transmission, and I believe that I will have
troubles with the stock ECM without it due to the tight integration.  So I
think I am going to use an aftermarket fuel management system, maybe a
Haltech unit.  I would like to get the stock fuel and ignition tables out of
the OEM ECM to provided a baseline in programing the new computer.  Anyone
have suggestions/ideas on the viability of doing this?  Frankly, any info on
the electronics, how to read the code, etc would be helpful.
