It can be done but the post is a no go the carb will hit unless it has the bend found in the twin chassy. But you cant use the twin post due to diffrent stering . Call power addiction get a plate then call wild child and have him build you a post .

No one that i know of still makes a big bore for them . I had a place that made sleeves for the xlt to do a 652 there about $150 each and then you gotta find some machine shop that can do a good job putting them in . Next is the porting slp can do it $?
