Question How big is it?

I am wanting to put a buick turbo v6 intercooled in a stock 1963 nova and was in need of the dims. of a v6 with everything mounted so I can decide if I need to purchase a different front end (aftermarket) The main reason is to go fast and still get good mpg. Thanks TC

You might want to ask in the hybrid section some one there may have done it. I have a friend that had one in a 66 nova but I dont know how much more room he had over a 63.

I have a stage 2 in my 63 nova. Are you worried about the header clearance to the strut tower? I have a aftermarket frt end so I can help on the tower measurments.
