Default What do you think about putting a V12 in your Chevy?

I was reading this last week. I bet no one else on your block has one

Looks like its a bunch of money for the set up on top of a lot of fabrication work to relocate steering, brake system, headers, mounts etc etc. I'd rather go LS or LT .

Sounds cool ... super neat and quite the feat of engineering . I don't see why anyone would want one . If it's true about the cost, then that's 2x plus of a ls9$$$$ for basically the same power
