What the story leaves out: It is not 358ci or whatever the SB2 is. It's been stroked-n-poked to nearly 400ci, to compensate for pump-friendly compression. Also because on the street there ain't no steenking displacement limits.
That's why I love V8 RX-7's. Josh's bone-stock LS1-equipped autocross FC netted 12.4's@114 on the autocross r-comps with a stock T56. Imagine actually bothering with headers or a cam! 
One day I'm going to stick an LSx into one (or more) of my cars... 
I just noticed something.
Look next to the silver RX-7 in the empty engine bay shot.
See that? Kind of a white thing with Supra wheels?
That's Bernie.
Bernie won the 2007 24 Hours of Lemons Detroit, assisted by six good drivers.
Tinman built its rollcage and did a lot of the car prep (which was surprisingly little for how well the car worked).

It was a 2nd Gen Supra wasn't it?
What's left of one, yeah.
Bernie needs a heart transplant. 
Sadly, an SB2 engine does NOT fit into the budget for Lemons.
Is an LSx feasible in an FB?
