Re: LT5 LIVES ON!!
The listed weight is tremendously high- maybe that includes the outdrive unit, but i think the engine itself is around 900 lbs last time i tried to figure it out. It's not gonna be in a car anytime soon. Also they are north of $150k ea. $400k for a twin engine drive system- The boat would be the cheapest part.

Re: LT5 LIVES ON!!
Of course the unasked question is..."Would it fit in a ZR-1??"
I think the question needs an answer... (I just said out loud what everyone is thinking!)
