anyone seen this before? looks like GM thought about putting a LS1 in the impala a few years back and it is FWD. 371hp 380tq would have been fun but ultimately a transmission killer like the LS4

thoughts?

 

I have heard of this before.

Too bad you just can't hook it up with all that power and it just wasn't beneficial to make.

 

it is a cool concept tho. i would like it alot better if they decided to make a rwd version tho.

 

I love that car..

What rims are those?

 

they almost look like the chrome SS rims that zjerry has

 

They offered chrome rims on 2004 Impala ss , they came stock on 2004 Indy Impala ss, and stock on 2004 Intimidator Monte ss , chrome rims was an option you had to add when you ordered Impala or Monte , Glad mine was ordered with them..

 

I have seen this car before, but I couldn't remember where it was on the net. Thanks for posting! I love that Imp!

 

np. i saw it on ls1tech today and figured i would share with the MCF

 

They arent the same, look how much more of an offset they have. They look like the ones from the really early pace cars.

 

I think they are one off custom made for that impala so they could install fat tires ..
