EATS EVERYTHING in its way, and its manual ! Love it mate, with the stock wheels on hidden intercooler nobody would know whats really under the hood apart from the whizzing Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I picked up a cheep fire damaged LS1 and built up the forged 383 stroker which is now in the VX. That left me the original VX ls1 for a project car The VX ran 12.4 1/4mile with that engine so the super light VK should go mid 11s and 10s with a 150 shot of nitrous Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
