Default 511 stroker in corvette

Hi i have recently been offered a 511 stroker big block chevy engine with 4 turbos it makes 2000hp . Would this be suitable for a corvette if so whats the best year to get . The engine comes with a 700R4 TCI RACING OVER DRIVE gearbox. Help is appreciated.
thanks

Whtever it came out of is what it will fit.

Vette engine compartements are real real tight dont count on all the plumbing fitting.


if it were me find a straight axle...700r with 2000hp?

Know youll have to sink a LOT of money in a better rearend, cage etc to make the car work. Its a super expensive proposition they just werent meant to handle that kind of power.

honestly Id look for a car without IRS and more room under the hood
