But the rules of the game are that we are using the ZZ572/720 crate engine as a basis for this fantasy build ... and a GM car. So this little side discussion is merely academic.


sigh.... fine.


put it in this....

You can pick any GM car, and use any other performance parts. What would you build? Discuss.
OK. Chevy Volt. Full subframe. You'll probably have to relocate the front seats farther back to accommodate the engine/tranny. A tunnel will need fabbed, and the back will have to be tubbed out.

Yes, it's ridiculous. That's the point. Well.....that and annoying the "earth mother" nuts.
