I want to say that there was a redline version of the sky with a LSx at one point though, no? 
 
*edit*  
I'm wrong. Mallett made a v8 version w/ a LS2. http://www.mallettcars.com/sky-conversion.htm 
I bet not too many people know about it though, as it wasn't a production car & I only heard about it once on a forum a few years back...
