I'll agree with Bill on this one. There'* no physical reason I know of that it couldn't be done. There'* space enough in the engine bay.
Just a matter of wanting to spend big $ to do so, when an L67 has so much to give.
If it'* a matter of doing it to be unique and different, then by all means, have at it and let us know what you run into along the way.

well im not the most expierienced but i have a lot of resources available to me right
this is definitely in the planning stages right now, i would still need to get an engine and a car to put it in, my bonnie i way to rusted to put any money into.
if i were to get a cadillac northstar theyre pushing between 275-300hp. it would sound pretty nice too. i was just wondering if anybody had done it because i am seriuosly thinking about this...
