i came close to putting my 12v cummins in my 79 vette. lol. SO many people would have hated on me, more because its a vette. but after looking on YouTube, i saw it had been done already... a few times.

A little? :lol:

That and a trans to hold all the power won't be a light weight either.

Short of doing it for the "look at what I did" its really kinda silly, you can't tow with it, and you can't really race it.

:shrugs:

No, but have seen the swap in a 1980's Caprice, which has a lot of under hood room.
