I don't think that is possible... not even the slightest. They would have to build a new tranny. Maybe with all the oil they are selling they can begin the R&D and start building Chevy parts so Chevy doesn't go out of business.

I've never understood why people do this. I mean, I get people's the urge to tinker with things, and do something different, but if that's the only reason, then I am still lost.

am sure Aalzuhair who is a member here and came to see the car will comment on this car and let u know more about .
am a 4g63 guy so dont ask me about LS1s !
and all also try to get the owner and maker of the car to come and give some info here .
I wish I knew how to quote pictures........ post 5 clearly shows a procharger on a LS based engine..... however if you follow the throttle body to the intake to the air filter I dont understand how that car is boosted. their are not charge pipes going to the intake just the "cold air intake" with a filter. seems pretty pointless to drive a procharger without actually using the pressurized air for anything.

Epic Fail.

Yeah the SC wasnt hooked up, the gauges didnt work Yikes!!
Sure hope they did something to the frame so it wont twist, The frame wasnt meant to have a Engine torquing it that way in it. Hell Even some chevys [3rd gen camaro] was meant to and they still twist LOL.

i would not do this, but thats just MO

great way to ruin a perfect handling machine. hey lets put a ls1 in it... then supercharge it... take away the front driveline so it never hooks again... oh we forgot how much heavier the ls1 is compared to the 4g so now it will handle like a dream... but it sure does sound good doesnt it * runs fingers through mullet.
