In order; maybe..., and probably. Ha! Ha!
Just looking at the basics, the V-10 is only 5 cylinders long, shorter than the 6. It isn't much wider than a Poly, which does fit, however total mass and where components stick out or protrude is more important. Either way a lot of fab would be required. I think the biggest obstacle is the cost of the V-10 and NV4500 combo that you would need. Contrary to popular opinion, you can never have too much torque or HP, JUST use your head when applying it. (yeah right!) Fuel economy can actually improve if you bind your right foot to you head with duct tape. You'll be able to tow anything, Gin any pole and more than likely you'll learn how to repair/replace u-joints, drivelines, axles and other components melted by the gas peddle! Beware, get disk brakes, anything that starts must be able to stop.
