I'll bet $100 that lotus ripoff of hennessey wont bust past 230mph before it goes airborne.

These cars aren't GM powered, thats my whole point!

Im fairly certain SSC did quote a few mods to that lsx to get it to do what they wanted.

I find the 5 cylinder volvo motor in the orca much more impressive :nod:

Mosler was making a few cars LS powered super cars, not sure I'd call them production. Not made for top speed though.

Hell ultima has LSX engine options as well but once again its more of a kit car

It says it's an Audi V8 Twin Turbo (probably 4.2 from that gen RS6/S8) in the website you provided.
