Want sooooo bad but not even CLOSE to trusting myself with that much power... Seems like it would just mow through driveline parts like a fat kid at a buffet...

That thing is sick! At $56,000 for the swap, I would still go with MoTech. An LSA swap has gotta be at least $10,000 less all-in. You could probably still do an LT4 for less than what Dakota Customs is quoting.

Still extremely badass!

Well I always said I loved the whine of a supercharger. That thing is beastly, but I'd hate to pay for the fuel bill. It would have to be a lottery dream and a weekend rig!

Very cool though.
