Maybe he counted the pistons in the a/c compressor and the brake master cylinder?

GM has never produced a v10 that I know of. Someone would really have to hack up the car to get any v10 to fit. I'd certainly call BS on that one...

My philosophy....With a book and some b@lls anything is possible.

I would say that your "expert" is not though, if he just said he had a V10 and didn't even mention it was a swap or custom build he is probably full of it

I know that if I had done a V10 swap I would be telling the story to anyone that would listen

Measured my buddies Viper motor and it would hit the steering rack if I tried not to mention the cross member. That is why you notice on the V12 one they lengthened the front of the car.
