Cool video. Notice how they cut away from the dyno display well before redline. It's only supposed to make 505 hp, but was showing 510 what seemed to be a good 1000 rpm below redline.

Without getting crazy - maybe.
Without getting poor - no.
The LS6 block drops right into the C3 frame using engine mount adapters.

My car is scarey to drive with LS1 putting out almost 400 hp. I couldn't imagine 500+ hp. Talk about pulling the front tires without a problem.
