Ya, that would be sweet, I just need to find a 68 camaro with no engine! I have never done any body work, so trying to find one with a decent frame and no rust, which is proving to be difficult... and of course one I can afford!

Pontiac Solstice or Saturn Sky...... lots of documentation on this swap and the V1 accessory drive and transmission will work just fine. I believe that GM even published a list of the parts needed for the swap.

Car will weight ~3000 (a touch less than a C6 Z06).

Mallett did/maybe still does these swaps.

You can easily put it in a 240sx... It was what I built before I bought the V1.
