Renegade Hybrids might be known for helping owners swap engines into Porsches but that doesn’t mean they will turn away non-Porsche owners. Take for example this amazing Lamborghini Diablo that is powered by a 480 horsepower LS3 V8. Renegade Hybrids helped with the Porsche transaxle, adapter kit, clutch, shifter, and a few other items.
