Someone's Built A Monstrous 8.5-litre V12 From Two LS1 V8s
This huge V12 was created by grafting together two cut down General Motors LS1 V8s and adding a custom crankshaft
The result of this mad project? 707bhp at 6300rpm, and 627lb ft of torque at 5700. It’ll be heading to a customer in the USA, who’s apparently planning on squeezing it into the engine bay of a Chevrolet Camaro.
All this has us in mind of an amazing project we spotted a couple of years ago, which saw one heroic hot rod builder stick together two 1JZ straight-sixes to make a one-off V12.

Umm, I hate to be that guy but 8 + 8 = 16 m8
They haven’t heard of Ryan Falconer engines then? He’s had a small block chevy v12 for ages
V8 = Freedom
1.5 Freedom Camaro, because 1 freedom is not enough
Someone needs to make a V14!
A LS12 I see
Yeah, you know: if you would Do this with an FA20 that would be great.
Why no v16?
Why they don’t make v16 instead of v12? Just wondering
8+8=12?….
