It sounds even better in reallife

It also now moves under its own steam and does 11s from tickover in 2nd lol

The engine is a bit too long for a Sierra but fair play for getting it in there, I keep having the urge to pull the engine out of my 500 and drop in my spare LS engine

I wouldn't want to chop the bulkhead or tunnel on mine tbh but an LS with the OE 6 speeder will fit without doing so..
