Okay, who bought this 750 hp beast for their Kappa?
« on: January 22, 2011, 04:20:14 AM »
At the Barrett-Jackson auction this LSX crate motor was auctioned off for the American Heart Association. My heart would surely stop if it was in my GXP.  :D

A guy can always dream...

Regular LSX454 at CED for less then $10000. Still don’t think you could stuff it in a Kappa and keep it from twisting the car to pieces.
