I do not see a reason except to prove it can be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A brand new LS engine is 5-6k and theres so many parts for them its not funny.Agreed price wise, but there is reasons- so many parts available.So many parts available because the OEM parts are low quality, and fail before they even get to their first service hence the need for so many aftermarket parts.Euro 3 what a bugger - I wouldn't buy or build a gt40 replica and fit a gm product to it, I would rather look for a early prebuilt car with a Boss engine and then twin turbo it for a easy 1000hp like a lot of yanks have done with the Ford GT.Backwards alright.I remember some guy a while back with a 10 second 2.0l turbo mk1 cortina, he went and put a chev big block in it and it went near 1 second slower.Some people you just cant tell they have to learn by there mistakes.cant wait till this guy gets nailed by a standard xt falcon or goes broke trying to keep oil up to it.SIN SIN SIN - Needs to be stoned to death.
