Would have thought the top speed and performance may also be matched to the Holden final drive ratio's  :y

Right thanks Skruntie, but any estimates of top speed if all transmission was transplanted into a  standard miggy? :-/

Loadsa extra torqe ( but saying that I dont know the torque rating on a 3.0 Miggy)

But for 13/15 BHP with a supercharger and 800cc it seems a bit naff.

Even less power on the 5.0

I thought the Aussies were all muscle.    Seems not.   >:(

Here's the kit you want if you get some one to sponor you.


The LS7 engine is based on the same small block as the C6.R.
The figures speak for themselves: 505PS and 637 Nm of torque, delivering a
top speed of 198mph and a
0-62mph time of 3.9 seconds.

Bit sad if it's only 240BHP from a supercharged 3.8 V6

It's a fairly "old school" engine to start with though. Pushrods, 12 valve. Wouldn't be a patch on a 3.2 without the blower IMHO. I've driven the NA version in a yank tank and it was a pretty lazy engine. I'd guess at no more than 170 BHP. Pulls strongly but runs out of revs too early. [smiley=evil.gif]

Should be quite torquey with a supercharger on though.
