Most of my cars have four cylinders... ...but not all! I work at a shop that does a lot of high performance Miata stuff, and we've started doing LS conversions. We have an LS1-powered 2002 Miata that we use for testing, and I kinda got hooked on the engine.
There's an MGB GT in my garage at home that's going to get a proper engine shortly. I'm thinking L33 with a T56 with a completely stock body - a bit of a sleeper. I'm pretty competent mechanically but I don't know the engines at all. So get ready for some questions!

The wheelbase is actually about 2" longer than a Miata wheelbase and I'm pretty comfortable with those. I'm going to build a full independent suspension for the car so it handles as well - probably graft a narrowed Miata setup underneath. It won't be a small project.
Good luck with your project. 
Then again, we're doing an LS3 swap into a Miata right now at work, that should be exciting.
