    If its a street car it would be highly illegal without some serious mods such as braking and suspension, best check with an engineer if you go down this line.

    Biggest engine would be something along the Lines of a LSX Warhawk block with all the goodies but hey if you got a spare 20k+ for the engine then more for a trans and tailshaft etc go for it.

    Big engines = Big $$$$$

    For the money and drivability mate you may as well drop in an ls1 and a t56, its been done a few times conversion kits are available and it would offer similar performance to the bigger motors. On top of that with all the money you saved you could supercharge/turbo the ls1..
