Hate to say this but you can desmog and cam swap the car and be at 325 in a hurry. More so if you swap some junkyard Vortec heads for 50 shekels.

Although I get the meme, the EU consists of 28 separate countries, all which aren't complete jews. I'm an EU citizen, I drive a BMW 850 and only insurance and gas cost me a bit more than for an average Prius driver in my cunt-ree

Come ye comrades! We must innovate somehow, we'll get it right someday!

I missed out on an LT1 trans am for $2k with a bunch of go-fast mods. Thing was pushing 375 horse. Guy sold it before I could come get it. It will always be the one that got away.

How is anything Bugatti makes considered more commercially present than a goddamn Corvette or something.

I mean if you knew ANYTHING about the small block chevy, you would be praising it. Instead, you just listen to whatever you want to hear that feeds your egotistical European mindset to dismiss it as a boat anchor when realistically it is the most viable option for horsepower in terms of cost, size, and reliability. People don't swap W12's into their cars on a regular basis.

Why do americans always fall for the obvious bait?

That's one of the things I like about the ls family, it's super easy to extract more power. If you ever blow it up, upgrade to the next size engine because itll (most of the time) bolt right in, reuse most of your go-fast parts from your old engine.

Was reading today about a 388ci ls making 725 horse and revving to 8000. Naturally aspirated. Fucking sweet.

>>14818976
This.

It's the real reason we're behind the times. Way too egotistical and stubborn to realize other people just like fucking with us.

Having said that, it's also the reason we're good at everything. When you're constantly worried about compensating you end up producing awesome compensation.

>>14818647
If they're so cheap why don't you send them over here?
I'm serious, you can make a lot of money.
You could sell a mint C5 for €20k in about 24 hours in most of Europe.
A nice Foxbody for €10k would sell in a week or two.

>>14819752
Import fees.

I don't see the issue here. GM a flaming shit but the LSx is great; it's a prehistoric fuel-guzzling V8 that upsets the nu-males and cucks. Retards put it in everything, yes. But these are the same people who shit up anything good and affordable.

>>14812710
Didn't Lamborghini use the "same" V12 since the 60's?

>>14819767
The cheapest C5 vette on UK Ebay is £12k or $19k.
Could you not get them over for that much?
UK import tax is 10% and VAT is 20%
