your ---- with a turbo kit will weigh just as much and fail 10x more than a sbc with a decent topend/cam with gearing/traction to match

I'm pretty sure it COULD be done, right? It would cost, but it usually does.

2.5 bell housing is not the same as a sbc. i dont want the work done for me fool, i do all my ---- myself. if you had a shop half as well eqipped as mine you might be doing something. ive been even considering taking a northstar v 8, cranking it sideways and dropping it in my s truck, same bellhousing as i can see. that would be wild. who knows where this franken s truck will go.

Wow, wonder how we got them to bolt up? Must have been the bellhousing fairy sprinkling magic dust while we took a break.

Lemme get this straight...

So you have a badass shop, but no clue what you are doing?
