take some measuements of the motor and lets find out because I have always wonderd that myself. It would seem to be in your best intereset to go with somthing more common like a 302, 305 or even an ls1 but I love diffrent idea like that.

I have seen a few big blocks in FC's and FB's. They are a really tight fit though. And I wouldn't waste your time with a 305 engine as they are gutless and stupid lol. But if that doesn't work just grab an old sbc 350 engine and that stock would be pretty fun

If a 4.6L SOHC Ford fits (which it does), then just about anything will fit.

So a sbc 350 would fit?
And what would you have to do to get it to fit?

take out the gay rotary that is probably blowin up or sealed up and the tranny and all the rads and and the wires you dont need and get a kit from eithers granny's or hinson and drop the engine and tranny in and get a new driveshaft and new rad and fan. That is the simple version
