this sureley proves, if there is a will there is a way.. its also reminds me.. when i went to Formula Drift like three weeks ago, Tanner Foust and his 350z. hes got a nissan titan v8 in his car..
it was quite amazing.. we werent sure what was in it at the begining but we all new it was a v8.. so we asked him.. he says its basically just the titan motor with a couple bolt-ons

It is in fact the 4.7 from an 03 Tundra. Yes, it is rear wheel drive obviously. It has a narrowed ford 9" rear end and is 4-linked. No floor in the rear. They had to do construct a tranny tunnel. From what I saw, it didnt look like they had to move the firewall...

wow, that is a lot of time & effort..
especially, mounting the .. corvette??? engine w/ rear drums and such..

it would be perfect drift car, since the weight of the front of the car is very heavy & it's rear wheel drive.

Thats not a corvette motor. Its a 4.7L V8 out of a Toyota Tundra pickup. Its also rear disc brake. The brakes were probably the easiest part since they just used a ford 9" rearend...
