Its possible, but it would be a massive amount of work.
i agree that would be an enormous amount of work.
but if you do it please post pics!!
I would be interested in seeing the frame, if this is a box frame like from a truck with a solid rear axle, its not worth it.
Now a miata, s2000, or solstice swap, would be awesome fun. None of those are V8 though.
Well, it would depend heavily on what frame you have and what V8 your sticking into it. If you have a ford, it simply may not be worth it because I don't think you would have enough clearance between the heads and the strut towers under the hood. If it's a Chevy V8, then it'll be a hood clearance issue, however I don't know what the NHRA rules are for hoods, but if you can just cut it to fit, why not? Unless you want to build a sleeper, then it may be different. I don't know anything about dodge V8s.. I'm sure you could stick some euro v8 in it but then it wouldn't be worth it in my opinion unless you just so happened to have one and all the equipment to remove all the b.s. from the ECU (talking about BMW/Mercedes/etc.) Would definitely like to see this however. If someone could do it to a smart car, theres no reason why not the humble aveo:
