Default Re: $165,000 for new LS9 HSV

probably cheaper to buy a gts sell the LSA for 10 grand and then buy the ls9 for 20 grand usd, and save $65,000 in the process, and HSV should and could do something more interesting than a LS9, take each LSA and strip down, bore and hone the block 5 thou, add a 4 inch stroke callies crank, 4.07 mahle pistons, and some h beam rods, give the lsa heads to yella terra to do a good cnc program to, then add a harrop 2.8l blower and intake, that would add alot of australia components, as i certainly felt some pride knowing from T3 on hot fords had local content.

They'll sell em quicker than the sprints as they are not half arsed cars

It will be a limited edition, in that HSV will over quote the actual engine power by more kw's, than any other HSV before it.
