    There is a certain wank factor in not just having any old LS1, if it is from a MONARO you get those extra bragging rights.

    That's as good a reason as well. He also wants to add a supercharger or turbo to that too.

    Yeah, i dare say even though its been done, a turbo supercharged engine is bloody hard to get to work properly, those lancia guys did it with a seamless transition from supercharger to turbo in the old group B(?) rally cars, i think it was group B, but anyway, not an easy task
