The Freak Evo from SAUDI ARABIA (caution LS1 Inside )
Couple of burnouts dont impress me.Take that frankenstein to the track.
Slicks and Traction bars could get that pig off the line, maybe.These guys must have a lot of time on their hands.Gonna need it

definetly some traction issues but hey, always happens with street tires
anyway put it on slicks get it tuned get that supercharger workin and hit the track
who knows maybe the ams guys will want a piece of that.

If nobody is trying to impress anyone than whats the point of this thread?Im entitled to my opinion about the burnout video as you are to yours.Go gather posts elsewhere.
Quit leghumping

Oooooh really ?? Then why does the Evo have most of it's weight in the front then!!??
An LS1 does not weigh all that much. It has an all Aluminum block and is fairly light considering it's a V-8. I just want to see how far these guys will go with this because I think it's funny and ingenious at the same time. Hell, if these guys get the all wheel drive going, I'm willing to give mad props.
As for the video, I think the only point was to prove that the thing even runs which is impressive considering.

Well, I did say that I wouldn't post again unless someone said something as foolish as C5's being glorified Cavaliers...so here goes.
Apparently you can't read any better than the SRT-4 guy. Either that, or the fact that you can't come up with any argument to refute me leaves you resorting to personal insults again...which seems more likely. I never said what matters is fuel mileage, and you'd have to truly be an idiot to get that impression from my posts. What matters is power, responsiveness and ease of installation regarding mods, efficiency, cost, maintenance, and size. Hang on a minute, that's exactly what I've been saying all along, as well as the post you quoted! Shocking! And yet you claim that "all I can say" is what matters is fuel mileage. Laughable at best. I was pointing out that GM's OHV motors achieve as good or better fuel mileage while making nearly twice as much power as the 4G. Obviously, you lack the reading skills to understand that, which is why I've gotten tired of this thread.
I can clearly see where you get the Prius comment though, given that my past two vehicles have been an LS1 Z28 and a 72 Stingray
What about specific output? How about a 600hp STOCK DISPLACEMENT LS1? Don't believe me?

Oh no, you've been proved wrong yet again. In any case, this is an irrelevant argument. You'll rarely see an engine of that power output with that specific output put into production, for a variety of reasons that stem back to the fact that specific output generally decreases as displacement increases, all other things equal. Cars that may have engines like that are going to be expensive indeed. Specific output is just an excuse ricers and the ignorant use to combat the low ABSOLUTE output of their torqueless 4-bangers.
Oh, and in any case, I thought I'd let you know that the Z08 Corvette - what will be one step above the Z06, but not at the level of the supercar SS - will be sporting a ~635hp 6.2L OHV N/A V8. That car will probably be around $100,000.
Anyway, I'm done - I'll let you carry on with your idiocy and selective reading.
Well said mate. I can appreciate different engine designs, and I also understand the distinct advantages and disadvantages of each. Unfortunately, others in the Evo community are too busy nutswinging to understand the inherent advantages of different technologies.

As long as its tuned well that FI LS1 could make 500/500 conservatively no problem.Get that to the ground.Thats the hard part.Especially while attempting to incorporate the AWD. Hell of a project though thats for sure.

What a great idea carried out and implemented effectively.
To those of you who have hijacked the thread and turned it into another useless hp/liter debate please stop. This kind of debate is only carries weight when there are rules restricting displacement.
the ohc ohv debate is useless as well each has their inherent strengths and weaknesses. Every engineer will not tell you that ohc is better or more efficient. Ex: how many ohc 500hp stock vehicles get 30mpg highway? None. Ohv? the LS7 does.

That had to take some out of the box thinking. Most people on any board would not have thought of that. Now I'm looking for the Viper's V-10 w/turbo in a skyline now. I said it first
More cyldrs. for imports. Sweet evo. I hope you guys can somehow make it AWD. Make all the 4bgr fanboy humpers mad. Car is a car. Go have fun!
