In the back of the car they installed a 430 ci (7.0L) LS3 V8 using their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.renegadehybrids.com\/cayls.html\">swap mounts<\/a>. The motor features a Brian Tooley Racing (BTR) Stage 3 camshaft, upgraded valve springs, IDX1050 injectors, and a Link ECU. The motor&#8217;s 433 hp (318 kW) is sent to the rear wheels through a Cayman GT4 tranaxle. The upgraded powertrain is complimented by an Elephant Racing suspension. Listen to Renegade Hybrids explain the project and dyno run in the video below.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\"
