As for the dream conversions...
Ariel Atom with one of those little 2.6L V8s thats Twin Turbo
240Z with RB26
Delorean with a hover conversion and flux capasitor!!! In reality though; a DeLorean with a TPE-331-1 turbine engine with either an electric or hydralic propultion system. I've kicked around the idea and would have probably done it already but info on these cars are scarce and I don't want to have to buy one, tear it apart just to find out that there isn't enough room...

.How about a nice 427 SB Ford with some 225cc AFR heads in my 03 mach 1 or better yet a cobra kit car or my favorite of all a 426 hemi in my 1988 Aries K or something a little different a 4.0 I6 from a jeep stroked and bored to a 4.7 with some head work and a single turbo.

Even though you said no LSX's, my dream swap would be a '78 Bandit Trans Am with an LS7 and a T56. And full bolt ons of course

How about a wild 455 ci LS2 based stroker paired with a TH400. In a 1984-1988 rcsb 2wd Toyota pickup(tiny little lightweight truck). I'd keep it looking stock(no tubs, no cage, etc) and it would make an awesome sleeper. I've always had a soft spot for these trucks, first vechile I ever drove was my dad's tan 1985 2wd, 5 speed, carbed 22r, xtra cab, short box truck. They got the lines dead right with that truck, its a very clean, proportional, and minimalist looking design.
