you'll have to cut the **** out of your cowl and possibly drop the K member some to prevent cutting to much. The corvette one would be the one to get. I only know of one person who did it, and it was a strip only car that never ran with it IIRC. Most people will not pay the money for a KB to see if it MIGHT fit. A turbo would be cheaper and make more power with less modification. With enough money you can make it fit. There is a guy making a Whipple Kit though. So I have heard. Not seen one personally though.

I dont think it would be worth it you would prob loose both your wipers and have to cut the **** out of the car. I wish it would fit though cause that would be badass with a big cube motor like a 427 or even a 454 man im bout to buy a vette and do this lol

There is always a way. How much $$$ do you plan to spend on this project.
You're going to need $15K-$20K to do it right.

i thought about that, but tvs don't have the top end power like a kenne bell. if i can't fit a kenne bell, then i will just go with a procharger or turbo. plus, it's no fun unless it's a pain in the butt to install! lol!
