I have to finish the project I have first, but a 240Z, clean E30, or a Locost would be sweet. Too many options! 🙂 ---

For 18k you can have the SC 5.4 in the Shelby [M-6007-C54\*](http://www.fordracingparts.com/parts/part_details.asp?PartKeyField=9560). Worth it, probably not.

In all honesty, I need to finish the smiling car with paint, brake upgrade (larger discs all way round), and if I am up to it - install the GM 2.4 SC with an alky kit (but probably not because it would still be slow). ---

![http://dealerrevs.com/pictures/10019237.jpg](http://dealerrevs.com/pictures/10019237.jpg) Showroom stock CTS-V. A6 with paddle shifters. Smaller pulley. Intake. Exhaust. 100 shot. Tune. 700whp. Fantastic creature comforts but still a 10 second car and could kick ass around the track. I’d also like to build a 427 block for my truck and beef the drivetrain up. People have them in the low 9’s in a damn SUV. ---

Nothing too crazy. ---
