    Well, when you do a corporate build, you don't always get to pick your motor. Trust me, we rooted for a 421SD with the Hilborn. Raybestos has a relationship with GM, and the LSX is brand new and they wanted to showcase it. We did our best to at least make it retro looking. And the LS was the last GTO motor (I know I know, the last GTO was a Holden, etc etc.) And Raybestos wanted to harken back to their days in Trans Am road racing. You can't build a '36 Plymouth as a 60's Trans Am car. So we put our spin on it and did the best we could within the parameters set by the owner. :D

    The car had so much power, it wouldnt hook up with the tires it had on it.
