new suspension, i think it would have to be rwd, new fuel tank, you would have to butcher the engine bay, new engine mounts and probably move the dash back 5 inches and make a new firewall.

but thats all just a guess

Re: Anyone bigger than a 3L?
realistically i think the biggest is something like 3.2L you can do a 2mm overbore on the 3L and you end up somewhere around there

Re: Anyone bigger than a 3L?
As it's been answered a lot, no. Nothing is impossible if you have bottomless pockets, a machine shop, and some wicked fabricating skills.

In other words.....no.
