Default V8 in an S2K?

Found this video on the web. Apparently, this guy swapped an LS-1 (Chevy engine?) into an S.

Though it could be a fake because we never see the car move or see under the hood. All we see is a guy walking around the car and we hear the sound of an idling V8. Here's the link

Anyone know anything about this?

yeah, definitely a fake.

does anyone actually have any interest in doing this kinda swap?

Has any taken any messurements to see if something like this would fit?

I don't want too but I am curious.

I think the hardest part might be finding a tranny that would fit, or making one fit...

If anyone wants to do a crazy engine swap, look me up, I'll do the work. That crap would be funny.
