I run a tuned Duramax and couldn't be happier with the performance. It will spank many current Camaros. It is possible but will it be too heavy up front IMO. Torque will compensate for power but the handling with the added weight up front would suffer with it's current placement. I think the car would have to be redesigned with the engine further back or the trans would be mounted out back like the corvette a to get a closer to 50/50 balance.
