And when this kind of dreams become a reality, a piece of automotive heaven is born. This is the case with the vehicle you see in the adjacent images.
According to Camaro5, Canadian Serge Leger chose to have the machines of his dreams built for him. Let’s explore the automotive fantasy. The car received a 6.0 liter LSX V8 powerplant, that uses a Turbonetics turbocharger (and a long list of other components) to deliver no less than 1,419 hp and a maximum torque of 900 lb-ft (1,219 Nm).
This kind of power level requires an infinite list of modifications that ensure that the hp can be used. The stock unibody has been reinforced, the car has received a Moser 9-inch rear end, a TCI 4l80e gearbox, new axles, a custom driveshaft and a special suspension. The car has also been fitted with a smoothed undercarriage.
Other highlights include a braking system that uses six pistons for each wheel and 406/25 R24 Pirelli P Zero rubber for the rear axle.
However, the vehicle doesn’t exactly lack refinement (we are not referring to the tech side here), as it has been fitted with a bespoke exterior kit, an Italian leather finish (baseball stitching) and many, many pieces of high-tech equipment (yes, a gadget from Mac is included).
The building process required 3800 man hours of labour an came with a price tag of $320,000 (all the numbers in this story just seem to be from another planet).
