If anyone manages to do that, they will be my personal hero. There's _no_ space in them, unless you shove the front seats forward and "sacrifice" the cargo area, and basically have the V8 inches behind your back.

I couldn't stand to own a car that ugly for any reason, horrible idea that will cost more in money and time than a used corvette.
I am not huge into even nice looking sleepers...but there's no reason on earth for me to tolerate an ugly pile of **** unless it gets 50 mpg and is reliable. A Prius is neither and a ls3 prius even less so.

Why don't you tell us how you really feel!....This time don't hold back.

Okay, this is the worst (and maybe best) idea ever. My friend, Tallchief, bought a prius and is in the process of converting it to a LS3-powered sun-of-a-bitch... He consulted me on whether or not to do it.
As horrible of an idea as it is... I told him to do it. It's just too funny and unique of an idea. He has already learned that the engine wont even fit... so he's in the process of overhauling the ENTIRE car... 100% of it (including the interior). I'm going to post some of the pics of the job... It is a sight!
Anybody have any thoughts on this project?

Beautiful idea, we/the hobby needs more fun cars, built just for the fun of it, not to **** off anyone, not to be the fastest, just for the joke!!! I do not like Priuses, but I love this idea, I would build something in that vein if I had the knowledge...
And with such an aerodynamic body, you might want to think Bonneville Speed Week...

Worst ******* idea i have ever heard but for some reason i almost like it. If i was to see that in person i would have to shake his hand and maybe call him an idiot, but in a good way. But hey its not my money. Next i wanna know how fast that thing can move down the 1/4 mile.
Keep us updated!

Do it!
However you know this only counts if you show up to one of those damn treehugger "look what I did to my car to get better mileage" car shows. On the entry form, put something like "optimized combustion system".
