I HAVE A QUESTION
I'm wondering if it's feasible to shove a V12 into the front engine bay, and super/turbocharge smash it
I'll be making some modifications to frame as well, such as making the rear more square and adding a foil, but that's beside the point, I'm going for a cursed build here, any opinions and suggestions I'd really appreciate

You can totally do it.
Only question is how big is your chequebook and what kind of fabrication and welding skills do you have? Can you install aftermarket EFI, build harness from scratch and tune it on dyno? With deep enough pockets, you don't even have to get hands dirty, just write cheque.
Why bother with V12 and all that weight when 2JZ can get you 1000bhp+? 3UZ can get similar power and weigh 200-250 lbs less.
This kind of build costs $15-25k depending upon how much you can do yourself.
