Chris demorro.... This guy has a history of not completely checking his "facts" before he opens his mouth.

Going back to the original listing (it took me through 3 or 4 sites to get to it) they only describe it as a 'C6 Corvette engine' -with a whole bunch of other German words mixed in, lol.

With that much HP, and that short wheelbase, I imagine it's a handful to drive... in a fun way

The listing claims 520 ps. This is not the stock output of any Chevrolet engine for which I am familiar. However, the ls7 does put out 512 ps. Therefore, the ls7 would be the mostly likely engine dropped into the car.

That's crazy and no matter what V8 is in there that's probably pretty damn crazy to drive!
