Bad ******* ***!!! I've been thinking caddy needed a highend "performance" exotic engine for a long time. Can you say awesome hot rod motor!!!!


Please caddy...give us a paddle shifted auto AND a regular manual.

Well hell, the sixteen was a hot car too! What 1000hp V16? It was like two LS2's stuck together! This'll put Caddy back on the map!

I was reading about this the other day, Lutz stated it was probably dead based on Pres. Bushs last remarks on fuel economy.

Yes..it was 2 LS2s spliced together. 2PCMs to run it too. Apparently, 3 were made. 1 was shoved in a Yukion as a test mule, 1 was a show piece, the other went into the concept.

Bummer...but if you have AFM and can get an assload of mileage out of it with cylinder deactivation, why not? Also, one would think they could make it "flex" fuel available.
