if you take the caddy giesel body.and put the duramax and allison tranny in one.build as a street rod,that thing would be a sick sleeper.350-400 hp and 650 ft lbs torque stock,then turn up the fuel,and turbo adn stuff.600 hp and maybe 1000 ft lbs,in 4 k lbs, that would be absolutely sick,and not out of hte question.

Low red line will be a problem. It will be shifting as much as accelerating.

Chevelle with hot street duramax in her,high 11s at 120 mph quarter mile.You should watch how much that frame twists,under the 1k ft lbs torque.
