What do you all think? I think it would be baddass, I know it wouldnt fit in a forth gen. But I was asking just in general.
I mean would it be that hard to modify a marine engine for street use?

it's still just a standard aftermarket block with all the same mounting holes for all your accesories, headers, trans, motor mounts, etc. it would likely look as silly as the black firebird a few posts down with the big blower through the hood. like mentioned before, just some minor mods and it's in. starting with that 12qt. pan!!!
now that you've been told 3 times by 3 people, are you going to ask again???

i'd fit in anything with abit of creative thinking...once the marine exhaust are gone, its just a motor...if the block doesnt have the provisions cast in for stock mounting...put a motor/tranny plate setup on it...thats way cool and super easy
and PrayHrd...whats silly bout a blower stickin out the hood...IMO, it dont git no better
