Serious Q. 702 V12 any chance it would fit?

I'm seroius here(you guys know I like my oddball engines) but dont know too much about this engine besides 600fpt and 280hp in stock from reading an old book. I was looking for another BBC to build calling bone yards and not having any luck and as a joke one of the guys said no 454's but I got a 702 if ya want a big one, $500. I dident know this engine was real but read up on it in an old manual that dident say too much. Twin 6, V12, 2 distributors 2 carbs and what Ive seen poking around the net it looks like it might fit?? Is this possible?? I actually found an 84 Z28 with a blown engine cheap for a doner T5 but things can change.

U wanna put a stock T-5 tranny up to that?? Eegad, they cant even handle a 350 very well. As for it fitting, ya but it'll take abit of work {as if a 454 dont} and u'll need a nice cowl. Get the dimentions, V12 i think it might come way to close to the rad, as there is only so much adjusting that can be done. Sorry if i dont make sence it very late and I am tired

It was late for me to when I typed it so no prob. The T5 would still be used in the bird, I was just going to buy the Z for the trans, rear end and air cleaner slap my old powertrain in 305-200C, 2.73's and sell it for a nice profit. Gotta do somthing with all these old parts laying around. Ive got a B&M TH400 that was in my camaro that I would use here.
