Even though the ls2 "only" weighs 450lbs, you would then need another tranny, and I'm sure one would have to reinforce the chassis. The diff would need an upgrade as well. It would make a nice drag racer but I doubt the engine would fit aft of the front axle line, disturbing balance. Just my thoughts.

I don't think it has been done yet. The one video that was posted here was basically proven to be a fake.
