That's a bad a$$ car! Why has no one used a LS6 or anything in a super car? Is GM not allowing them or something? Or is it the push rod thing?

That's cool. I never hear about LS motors going into cars other than sand rails. It's always Ford. That seems like more of a kit car though.

I don't really make it down to sunrise too much except to go to Best Buy or somethin. I've just moved back to the Sacramento area after being in the Bay Area for 2 years and then 5 years in San Diego. So what goes on down on sunrise and on what nights? I could go down there....
