Unless it was racing a ZR-1, which was an older and completely different design.
But yeah. Vortecs are 1,000 HP just waiting to be unlocked.

Assuming for now youre not a bot- But yes, its very possible. And far easier then most who arent a apart of the car world might realize. |

| Some welding, a standalone, some supporting equipment, and some ingenuity work wonders. There was at least one American minivan that came stock with a turbo, a dodge caravan if I remember right, but it wasn't a V8. Someone built one up and I've seen lots of youtube vids of that because my friend likes eclectic cars to say the least. Maybe thats the one you saw. |

| Did you know that the van with the Vortec has the same basic engine block as the ZR1 it was racing? Unless it was racing a ZR-1, which was an older and completely different design. But yeah. Vortecs are 1,000 HP just waiting to be unlocked. |

| Someone down the road has a GMC Safari (chevy astro) AWD with the 4.3 vortec which he pulled and somehow stuffed a cammed 5.7 in there and stripped the inside down completely. He's still working on it, but I can't wait to see it completed. Total soccer mom sleeper lol |
