Actually, I'm being frugal on the weight here... using a FWD Buick 3.8L
from a '86 LeSabre, mated to an Audi 5000 Turbo transaxle.  The attached
engine is currently stock, but a neat thing about this particular front
wheel drive engine, is the the ECM and harness is identical to the Grand
National, which we all know is a real go-fast car.  So, after the engine is
blueprinted and race-prepared, an aftermarket GN chip goes in, two turbos,
wala... an 1800-2000lb speed demon :)

I originally debated using a 4.6L Modular Ford Engine I had bought, however
I decided against it.  No reason why a V6 can't make huge power.
