What if time: Can I put a Chevy Generation IV small block v8 in my 2003 Honda...

...Accord EX coupe? I'm an ex- 2006 Impala SS owner (horrible accident, don't ask), and I was gifted with an Accord. I miss my American muscle, as much as I appreciate the gift. I like the style of the Accord (and the fuel efficiency, of course!), and I just happened to start thinking, what if? Is this a physical impossibility? If it is indeed possible, what might it cost? Would a mechanic think I'm crazy? (You don't have to answer that part.) What alse could I do to give my car some "oomph"?

Anything can be done to a car with the knowledge and money it takes to do it. That swap would be a beauty but cost big time and the front end modifications alone would change the car drastically.

you are asking for something that could easily run you 80+ grand. If it's possible. You could supercharge it.

Have frame built for it. Then you can do the suspension the way you want it and you can set up the V8,really blow everybody away put a 2speed powerglide transmission in it. And then drop the body of the Honda on top of the frame(some firewall mods). Don't put loud exhaust on it(make it a sleeper).
