LSX454
Looking for a new car and someone close has a 2011 with an lsx454. Now my question, would you stay away from the car because of the engine? I know the early 454s had some issues but how are the later ones? The car hasn't been beat, infact quite the opposite. I already read the story about putting FI to it and thats not in the plan if I do go ahead with the purchase. Would the cylinder walls be able to take a hit of nitrous?

The LSX454 is a beast!!! I'd jump on that car if the price is right.

I second the beast, LSX454 is a monster engine. I am not sure how big a shot of nitrous you can give it, but it is all forged bottom.

I don't know if you test drove that car you are looking at yet, but once you do you should be sold if it was done right. Post back up if you get it.
