Aston Martin masterminds have do the same, duplication of a Ford 3000 V6 in a 6000 V12 and I think it is much easier with an american OHV alloy engine. biggrinbiggrinbiggrin

Not as wrong as this V16 engine with quad turbos and over 3000bhp on normal fuel! smile

Sure it would fit with a minor strech of the engine bay! Lol

Brammo who built a canam same time as me, made a v12 LS1 over 10 years ago so it's been around for quite some time..... Made immense power with it being very mild almost stock spec.
It was never intended to go in an Ultima though!
