Ayup. Reckon so.
Maybe massage the hood a tad, too - With a Sawzall.

If you are willing to move the driver's seat back a smidge, try:

You could get a car in white with the modular 5.0. That's what's hitting the tracks and was used in the GT-R Concept. Don't see why a new 5.4 can't fit, seeing as that's what is going into the new Shelby. I mean if your looking for size and weight as opposed to sheer cubic inches, these would be the best bolt in's. ;) There are stroker kits out there for the mod motors.
When you say a smidge how far do you think and do you think there will be need for any other major changes in the car to fit the new engine?

LMFAO
If you have to ask you don't need to know...
My point was, If someone didn't already have a clue about that, they really shouldn't be swapping engines in any car...
Yeah, that'd work too, although that 514 would be spotting 301 cubic inches (five LITERS) to the Kaase Pro Stock motor.
Personally, I'd go in this direction: start with the all-forged short block from this World Products 4.155 x 4.125 460 ci/575 hp Windsor crate engine --

You'll need toswap out the pistons to fit the Clevo combustion chamber, but even soyou could buy a base '06 Stang and piece together my 460 ci Clevor,plus a T-56 and a 9", for about the same price as the Kaase hemi alone. Yeah, that's the ticket. Street legal. Somewhere.

Here's a kind of "how-to" for putting a 1650 ci Rolls Royce Merlin V12 in a '55 Chevy:

It looks like quite a few "smidges" are required, in every direction. The Roller might be down 60 cubes to the Allison in that digger, but the twin blowers and 3000 hp will probably make up for that. This car has also been street driven. That Allison car, I doubt it.
