hey
just bout to start a Vp project car and was wonderin if ne1 could give me a rough estimate of what the largest big block v8 i could squeeze into the vp engine bay i've been searchin for big blocks and they come in a range of sizes so i was juz curious how big i can go

[Boonz]

ummmm get a tape measure in their perhaps????

[mouce]

Depends. Theoretically you could put whatever you want in there, if you were prepared to widen the chasis, or lengthen the engine bay. The sky's the limit if you've got the cash to do it.

I would'nt mind a Kenworth truck engine in mine. Probably run smoother than the VN V6 too
