Project X has transformed from a V8-powered hot rod to one with all-electric power thanks to a motor swap.
Project X drives into SEMA this month with a new, electric lease on life. The 1957 Chevy was originally purchased in 1965 for $250 and has been a testbed for more than five decades of technology and trend evolution at the hands of MotorTrend's Hot Rod brand.
In the past it's been powered by an inline six-cylinder engine and a number of V8s. At various times it's housed carburetors and employed fuel injection and supercharging. An experimental, 400-volt proof-of-concept lithium-ion battery has been installed that is being evaluated for use in a next-generation Chevrolet Performance product. The battery can store 30 kilowatt-hours of electricity.
There are other modifications to Project X aside from the motor modification. Going electric means that the model doesn't need an exhaust system. That allows Cagnazzi Racing to be able to remove it and lower the car by two inches.Chevrolet Reveals 1,004-HP Crate Engine, Its Most Powerful Ever
