I can justify a rotary 5 though.

I admit I did say that about three posts ago ... but if someone put a W8 into one I would be drooling all over it for the lunacy of the idea

If it can't be a big lazy Yank V8, are the compact-and-lightweight-engine LS400/LS430 conversions acceptable?

lol

W8 would be insane - you wouldn't need to touch the accelerator because of all the torque, surely?!

I can't think it would be much fun on the road, you'd have 2.3 seconds of foot-down fun then be doing 100mph and banged up with Big Dave quicker than you can say "What camera van?" lol
