All a 514 is, is a stroked 460, and they sell kits to drop it in a fox body.

Your going to need a stout trans though.

No totally different animal. Although with some custom fabrication you could make a mount bracket for a stock or 3G alternator

Let's see... $8k motor into a car that can't be worth more than $2k (to the general, non-enthusiast public) .
