4.5l? That must be a custom one. As far as I know they came in 4.0l, 4.2l and 5.0l variations from the factory.

Either way, gorgeous thing.

THIS.

This was the angriest, throatiest, best sounding engine of the entire race weekend amongst other Trans Am, SCCA GT and IMSA cars at The Glen. My cell video couldn't o it justice. The explosive upshifts... The fucking best , can you dig that??

I am imagining the intake runners sliding up and down with engine speed. Mmmmm

Why is this not dropped into an old classic British roadster (MG)?

I believe this would be more fitting for that application.

Theres one that runs in our GT1/Unlimited class over here and boy is it fast. It has even held outright track records for a short time until that modified V8 Supercar went and broke them again..

nah, it's this mofo of a car:

Owner went to an Australian V8 Supercar team and bought a chassis off of them, then told them to build it into the fastest thing possible. That massive wing is off of a LMGT car and is doing about 2T of downforce. They snapped the mounts the first time they tried it. It will also do about 290 on the old Pukekohe back straight and is one of the fastest track cars in the southern hemisphere. And dayum is it wide.
