Yep, my plan is a destroked LS2 that will rev to 8500. The problem with the porsche tranny is that the best variant will take 500 lb-ft of torque stock, fully built it will take 650 ft-lbs. The destroked LS2 would be 4.8l. Throw twin turbos' on that (50 trims) and you should be able to get 700-750 whp and 600-650 lb-ft of torque on pump gas. Put is some big cams and you might be able to run even more hp, but stay at the same torque. The whole project would run about $65k, and that includes an aftermarket tranny that would take basically unlimited torque (twin turbo LS7 anyone?). You can build the basic version for $40k.

The car is actually 1.5" narrower than a C5 in the front and the same as one in the back. Just think of a C5 that looks better and weighs 1000 lbs less! They have a lot of carbon fiber on it, rear diffuser, rear wing, front chin spoiler, and a bunch in the interior.

The car is called the GTM Mulsanne, made by FFR. They have been making cobra and GT40 kits for years.
