Could I put a viper engine inside, say, a bentley continental flying spur? The engines they put in those cars are so unreliable that it might be best to rid of them altogeather. My question is, can it even be done? And for how much money? I want a luxury exotic on the outside with a fast, american motor on the inside; the best of both worlds really. Its really simple, but i’m not sure that its even ever been done.
…not too happy with these answers…

I would wait until after high school to start customizing cars that already cost over 100,000 dollars.
LOL
Maybe the same people who redo the interior of your supposed Z06 with Lambo- quality materials can suggest a good mechanic to do this engine swap.
I call B.S.

It would matter the size of the engine block and the size of the front of the car. If it had a super charger it might not work as efficiently

putting a viper or corvette engine in a bentley would be pretty dumb. Firstly you’d ruin a good car, and secondly you’d ruin a good car. Despite what you may have heard the bentley power plant is extremely reliable and very smooth and refined. Put in a different engine and you loose that.

You obviously do not know a lot about the bentley engine,it is one of the most reliable engines you can get,and are built by a leading aircraft engine manufacturer,unless your on about the radio controlled model bentley,then that may be a different matter

Yes it could be done, but Dodge viper engines are not reliable too.
A Vette engine would be better.
But adding a Vette or Viper engine will make the Bently slower. They are not as powerful or high revving as the Bently engine.
