biggest V6 or biggest engine anything? It all depends on how deep your pockets are. With $$$$ you can make anything work. There is a dude who stuck a 1100 CID tank engine in his mustang. Will this be a racer or daily driver? You need to take into consideration what you are trying to do and to what extent you will go.

I guess I'm unfamiliar with the 301. I just looked it up, and I don't see why it wouldn't fit. Hood/cowl clearancemay be an issue though.


Edit: As I'm sure you know, this will not be a direct swap.

This is about as big an engine that can be put in a car. This shows how to stick a 3000 HP Rolls Royce Merlin V12 in a 55 Chevy, but you can use the same procedure with some mods to put the Merlin in a Camaro. LOL

Then if its not a direct swap what would I have to change like I think my transmission can handle the 301 but I'm not sure about the 350 but if I wanted to put the 350 what would I have to change and what would I have to change for the 301
