lots of good suggestions, and a few really stupid ones.

You need a v8. Personally, I would stay away from chevy products. If I were doing this, as of right now, I'd choose the 1uzfe or whatever the version of the 4.0 v8 is that's in the 99-03 (or thereabouts) lexus gs400. Even in that car, it feels nice and with 1400lbs less, it would really boogie.

Also, the most important part, they are already rwd.
