Thread: Can you put a Chevy Engine in a Dodge Dart?

Tweet

There is a guy at my local track runs an old Belvedere with a Chevy Big Block... the car is named "RATIFIED" and I think it is cool in part because it is unapologetically different. I don't think the Chevy guys will give you flack but the Mopar crowd will be a mixed bag.

If it makes you happy and you're willing to go through the effort I say more power to ya!

You COULD do it, but why?
I have seen a '64 Plymouth Fury with a SBC and a Mustang II front end.!!! Also saw an article in a magazine about a '64 Mustang with a Flathead in it. A local drag racer has a Challenger with BBC crate engine. He saved about 5000 bux by getting a Chevy crate engine over a Hemi.
