I'll assume this will be on the track cuz

street racing threads aren't allowed

That said, he'd kill you.

In the very upper end you may be able to keep up, but down low both he should kill you.

If you take it to the track you'll get a timeslip at the end of your race!

I think you'll do ok, but he'll probably win. Those LS400's are rwd and there would be less driveline loss than our awd SVX's.

Good luck!

I have spanked a many ls400s an about the turbo he may be pulling your leg if that v8 has a turbo he got well over 300hp and you will be roadkill.Slow down on racing and speed up the car first.
