Default Gt500 motor in a 2v?

Just curious... What all would I need?

My motor was just finished being rebuild, car has return system for 1k hp basically fully built. MY KB2.6 is maxed out on my built 2v as it is. I just installed a 175 shot to get me bottom 10's or 9's @ 800whp...
I love going to the track and people being amazing that its still a 2v.. Specially all the 4v guys


Anywho, I have an opportunity to Drop in a 2011 gt500 motor, 2.8 Kennebell in my car at no cost, Tranny, Computer, Wiringharness, what ever i need.

Im just curious what all i would need? My car is struggling to make 600whp with the 2v on blower.. This engine will get me at 800whp easily without the N20... Again, the only reason i dont want to do it is I LOVE having a Fast 2v...

Again, motor, Tranny, Computer, Wiring harness (what ever i want) is mine for free....

few more options:

I can throw it in my 03 f150......

Find a 67 gt and make a gt500 clone with new age stuff??

Buy a Salvage 99-04 v6 - put it in there with stock v6 body/ looking exhaust..

HELP.....

Thanks!!!

Youll obviously need the motor and s/c. Wiring harness, computer, gas pedal. Youll have to fab up a CAI of somesort since the intake is going to be on the other side. Exhaust is going to be slightly different. Youll also want some 03-04 cobra exhasut manifolds. You could possibly get away without modifying the exhaust though. The mid pipe will have to be stretched about 1". Might also wanna get k member spacers to lower the engine a bit. Youll want all the accessories like a/c alternator and stuff like that because idk if the stock ones will work.

Its going to be a beast with that engine and s/c setup! Especially being an aluminum block and all. I only wish I could do some thing like that!

I say do the gt500 motor in your car. It will be different, and imo, it would be badass!

Everything will come with the motor... all accessories ( a/c, alt) just was curious if everything will fit? Use his radiator.

you might be able to use a single blade 03/04 Cobra TB instead of the fly by wire one?...

Your biggest issue will be the electronic throttle and gauges.

If you wanted to, you could get a cobra wiring harness, and a cobra jet tb (not 100% sure itll fit though) and a extend a few wires, and thatd prolly work and wouldnt have to worry about the drive by wire. Only thing youd have to do is place the IAC somewhere else. On my gt500 s/c, im going to make an adapter plate for it where the egr would normally go. Also, Id just go with a 1999- 2004 radiator. Itll take some modification for the gt500 radiator to fit.
