Not feasible. (search) I believe its too wide. Also expensive. Also its never been done before. Surch on freshalloy, also a Chevy can easily make more power. The weight power ration wouldn't be significantly improved over the stock KA. What about a transmission?

Rebuilds cost 1000s and are rarely done, japan take outs are preferable to them even. As opposed to something cheaper like a chevy 350 or ford 302 which are rebuilt comparitively easily in your garage.
