    pretty much anything can fit if you want it to.

    however you will need to change some things so hopefully you are good with a tools/welder, or have near bottomless pockets =P
    how about we make the pedals out of sticky rubber and the shoes with steel spikes. at least my shins would like that

    If you plan on driving it on the street then you've got 2/5 of #### all chance of getting an engine that big engineered in a VR. You're better off stroking a small block LS series engine.
    Cheap, fast, reliable.....you only get to choose two.

    you can make a 454 out of a small block chev if you desperately want one in the vr

    first start with a 400 small block
    4.250 inch bore (which is beyond the max recommended of 4.165, but still has been done)
    4.000 inch stroke

    check it out here

    as the usual saying goes "If you need to ask, its probably not a good idea."

    Plus, old carbed v8s are shit. They overheat in traffic and they need time to warm up before you can drive them.

    They do have their place, but its not in any car newer than about 1987.
