CTS4, need help with the car does any one have a belly picture of the cts4. ( the AWD one )
i would like to either do a LS transplant in a cts4. or by a 2009+ cts-v and do a AWD transplant.
i know it will be a lot of work. but i would love to have a AWD LS powered car.

Oh new body cts....thought you were talking about 1st gen cts with awd...gotcha...in that case I think you'll have better luck putting the v8 in the awd car...I've heard the tunnel is larger in the awd, plus a couple other changes...know this because people test driving them said there was less cabin space.

when your putting conservatively 400awhp to the ground through an AWD system built for a 200 awhp platform, i think it will be a royal pain in the ***. i like the thought, but i dont see the benefit when you can put that money into a nice *** suspension package on all four corners.

agreed, i would like to see one, but if you want V8 muscle AWD in a GM......buy a Trailblazer SS. Not like its that much heavier then a V anyways lol jk. All you need is a some basic bolt ons and a converter to be in the mid to low 12s. Just my .02

My V has been siting in the garage very lonely the past few weeks.
A awd cts-v would be sick

yep, but all you need is 8 inches of snow and the AWD V wont move. Its more then 4wd its ride height and tires. I dug out 30+ inches of snow a couple days ago, and its now buiried under 20+ from yesterday and today. I got an AWD jeep stuck in the driveway today.

If you can pull it off while keeping it from breaking, you would be a genius. On the other hand, I can think of a lot of other things I could be spending my time and more importantly, my money on.
