Hi Guys,
This is my first post on Bangshift. I really dig this sight. I was having a discussion (or debate) with a friend of mine regarding the marine 454 big block engines (e.g. mercury mercruiser 454). We were wondering if a marine 454 like a mercruiser 454 can be swapped into a car. We were thinking swapping in a big block in my '70 Impala and he suggested to look into the marine big blocks. He thinks it is possible since the marine big block is derived from a passenger production big block chevy. My stance is I'm not sure since I have never seen one. Since I have never scene one I do not know if the mounting bosses/holes are different or match up with a production motor. Anyone here familiar with this? Thanks in advance.
