Austin Martin is owned by ford and that V12 was originally a Ford concept car motor that didn't make it into production until AM used it. I like the build. Looks clean with the exception the the AM side vents.
You could put an exotic motor in a C3, but unlike the current Mustang line-up Corvettes actually have motors that are worth a shit
.
Remember if you can't make a strong motor then just through some aftermarket rods and pistons in it then blow it
