Even if you didn't stay GM engine loyal, that would be some hardcore fabrication to make it work.


Certainly would make for an interesting custom Corvette though. Here's some reading on the GM V10 that almost was.

If you see him again, let him know how interested you would be to see such a rare and unique automobile -- not in a mocking way, of course. That sort of approach separates the BS from the truth.

You can move the rack an inch easily and the crossmember is a breeze to notch out. How close was it?
