Since everyone has an opinion. I don't like it. Waste of a good engine.

I've seen so many go through the insurance auction and thought how cool it would be to do this swap.

My ideas were to put an LS4/4T60e in the trunk but still a cool build.
Good luck and i hope it turns out how you want it!

I wouldn't be surpised if you saw 30 MPG highway on the thing, if driven sedately. That's a big IF though. I wouldn't be able to restrain myself.

Autofab is literally 3 minutes up the road from me. I had gears done there years ago, and they overcharged me. Took them two weeks too, and they charged me to "store" my car there. Seems they have a reputation for playing games to squeeze more money out of people.

I hadn't been there in a few years...went to see if I could buy wheel studs there when I needed them for the Impala. They had the front door open, with a "do not cross" tape across the doorway, and would not even acknowledge that I was there, trying to get inside. There must have been 7 people in there, laughing, totally ignoring me, even though I was like "hello?....hello?" 5 feet away from them.

So, I'll never go back to that place for any reason. And I make sure to tell everyone about how they rip people off and are extremely rude. Maybe they can build a car, I don't know. But I would rather pay double somewhere else than to give Autofab any more of my business.

You've taken the gayest car ever made and put a V8 in it.

Practically the biggest middle finger at the EPA ever conveyed in a vehicle.

There's hope for mankind yet.
God bless you, Sir.

No sir

That moniker is reserved for any "new beetle" ( seriously a flower holder) followed closely by the last gen "retro" t-bird

I live like 20 minutes from Autofab. I might go check this out if they are open tomorrow, or next week sometime. Hopefully I can convince them to let me take some pics.

I've actually seen this car being worked on. I didn't see it with the engine in yet, these pics are a little more recent than what I saw. I got to see the shell cleaned out. I had my car up at Autofab having my procharge put on, and had to ask wtf! I hate that you're taking this car back to Boston, I want to see this thing run at capitol first!

Interesting swap. Was wondering if somebody was ever going to do one or do a Chevrolet Volt.

I created a Facebook page for the build, with all the questions coming from all over it will hopefully help keep it accurately updated. Check it out, like and share! Or hate and complain. Either way on facebook it's LSX Prius

since those batteries are so bad for the planet-to manufacture- you are actually being green!

Be really funny if you can keep it electric too lol.


So is there any other pics besides the first few there?

I like this.
The term sleeper has become some what of a joke with vehicles like farmtruck.

I'd say this will be the true meaning of a sleeper.

thought i'd see someone try to swap an sr20 or 2jz or something in a prius first but the ls is even crazier....lovin it! cant wait to see it done and running and pissing off eco-mentalists like Jeremy Clarkson calls em lol
