Sweet!
Samy, you find any links of the finished car with it running?

Seen it somewhere before.

There is no video of it running that I know of. There is a youtube of a 5.0 in a 124 -

Thanks Samy. I've seen that Spider with the 5.0 before, It's also pretty sweet but I don't think there's any video of it on the road either. I wan't to see what one runs like with a Vette engine in it. Gotta be wicked fast!

It's probably very fast and a great show. I just don,t think it could be more fun than a well running 4 cylinder with a stick.
The whole concept of a motor like this hocked up to an automatic in a car like this sounds scary to me.
Did anybody here ever have a chance to drive something like this, would be interesting to hear how it handles.

He was trying to sell it on ebay a few months ago for 20k

I only get to do it every time I take my car out. It is a kick to have a car with way to much horsepower. 340hp 2720lbs.

I bet it's really fun to drive. I remember seeing pics of the engine from the So Cal event. Incredible work!

I got a good look at Halg's V-8 spider at our last SoCal drive. It is truly a work of art.
