Hello all,

New to the forum, For a few years now I have had the idea of building a Type 65 Coupe.
Originally I was planning on keeping this semi-true to the Daytona. and the general build of most coupes, Complete kit, ford small block, Tremec transmission, I was hoping that I could make this better than a Corvette for half the price. And with what research I have done I think that is completely do-able. If I skip the part about the new C7 having on-board telemetry with the Cosworth Toolbox.

However due to new ideas, friends, and the general philosophy of 'Why Not?' I am pondering using a 8.4L Viper V10 as the power plant. I have seen this done in the roadster but I haven't in a coupe yet. I know that this will require custom fitting everything but I am curious if people had tips or advice to help aid this process. If I can get my hands on a salvage Viper I think that this project is at least some what feasible. ( Still aiming for the Corvette Killer here )

What are your thoughts? concerns?
