No it does'nt, imho, neither does a chevy belong in a shelby or superbird, somethings best left alone, once I saw a honda 750 shoved in a sportster frame, I damn near puked.

To each his own but I understand his point.

wait until i put an amc in my nova im going to have so much fun. wouldnt mind taking a 29 model a or a 32 ford and stuffing a hudson twin h power 6 in it either

yep i think if i very get deep pockets i will get me one of them GT40 f or d cars and put one of my big inch DONOVANS in one and watch them f or d guys cry

V-12 PACKARD MERLIN could fit ????????

Would be one heck of a combination,,,,doubt the transaxle would live very long, though.... It'd sure be a wild one, no doubt!!!!! Heck, they fly now with only 500 horse! Maybe for those of us who are less then millionaires, one of the aftermarket 'glass versions of the GT 40....If you could get a transaxle to live behind all that torque, the mid-engine design wouldn't be effected by the weight much at all!!!!

Yes, I have...they're really no different then any of the other brand loyalty blindness types, though..... If you can make it go fast and handle like a slot car, I don't think the combination really matters. Heck, I've contemplated building a Super Comp Vette powered by an 815" Ford.... good aero and good power.... I'm still just really, really bored of seeing an sbc 350/350 in everything!!!!!

i know a guy that has one wanted headers and the back rims turn down for more back spacing i painted the repop rim for the gt 40 as a ruff cast then they would get fully machine them damn thing were very heavy as raw casting

what kind of engine was in that moon car ? Looked like a HEMI !

I was not talking about him personally but he is making my point,I have found most chevy people think chevy motors are Gods gift to everyone and everyone should have one powering their vehicles but I dont buy it and wont use one even to power a chevy. They have a cow when someone wants to put a non chevy motor in a chevy and I think its funny to see their responses,if everone takes a chevy motor out of their non chevy vehicles I wont even think about putting a non chevy motor in my 37 chevy p/u when I get tired of or blow up the 235 six as I was seriously thinking of putting a ford motor in it.
