Well...Jay Leno has now made 600 ponnies come out of the new LS7 in the Chevy 'Vette C6 Z06. Except he used a 1932 Deuce HotRod.
. Along with a C6 Z06 suspension and the SSR's manual 6-spd tranny.
Here's the link to the article. Enjoy.

Personally I think what he has done is absolutely beautiful and monsterous. I love his HotRod.

Heck yea, imagine if someone produced anymore power out of it? That'd be a serious monster engine with more than 600-hp.
I love that car of his, looks beautiful.

yea no way they ripped that out of a c6 z06 as you can order an ls7 crate engine from GM, but like someone already said he doesnt pay for anything im sure, its just given to him since its going into such an outrageous project car like he always does. Seriously though, what does he do with all those cars? I know he drives them all, but it seems he never has enough haha. I guess id be the same way though if I had millions of dollars to spend on cars!

I'd like to see Leno actually work on some of his own projects. People give him parts and build his cars for him. He has so many cars, he doesn't even drive them. They're just "look what I have" cars. What a waste. Jealous I guess!
