No.

 

Forget practicality, I'm just wondering if it can even be done.

 

No.

 

I know this is an absurd question, but when I heard about racing cars using airplane engines,

 

What size airplane engine and in what size/class race car?

 

and one that uses a boat engine,

 

Again, what size boat engine in what size/class race car? On the other hand, look what the NHRA Top Fuel and Funny Car folks have accomplished with a 500 cubic inch Hemi engine, based off the original Chrysler 426 Hemi. They now force upwards of 10,000HP for a bit more than three seconds out of those 500 cubic inches.

 

this question came to mind.
