well im sure some of you have seen it, lingenfelter has a 7oohp twin turbo'd cadillac escalade, and yes this 5k lb truck is running 12s in the quarter, and o-6o in like 4.5 sec, now THATS a pimp ride, and it looks damn good too!

Actually, its 0-60 in 4.0 flat. Which is faster than the 360 Modena (4.2 seconds). Ran the 1/4 in 12.7. All wheel drive with an automatic.

Yes, an interesting exercise is overkill! Not that it's bad....

C & D Aug '03, Pg. 134.

A neat idea for an SUV, but the engine is a little spendy...."At $55,975, this monster LPE motor costs a few grand more than an entire Corvetter ZO6..."

You must mean 1.97 for a 60ft time. That car's best time was 8.95 @ 153.6

I highly doubt that. Thats the neighborhood that the HKS 180sx does 0-60mph in. And it weighs NOTHING.
