Fantasy Swap?
Fully Built Ej25 Bored/stroked, 25psi, Backed By Whole Awd Sti Drivetrain In A Custom Lotus 7.
Rb30dett (custom Block, Skyline Motor) In A Bike Built Similar To Dodge's Tomahawk.
Duramax In A 00-02 Rcsb Chevy, Tubbed
Why Not Do The Same In A 97 T/a? If Anything's Possible With Money
Hennessey Built V10tt In A 93+ Supra
This One Breaks The Rule, But...
Ls7 In An 04 Pontiac Sunfire, Chopped Top, Full Ground Effects, "shhh" Exhaust. Gotta Love Killin The Imports With Domestic Compacts!
Anyone Heard Of Civette? Yeah. Enough Said.
Finally, Not A Swap, But A Lotus Exige, Fully Built And Boosted ~30psi

I've thought a lot about cars I will one-day build, but I don't give much thought to the engines as some variant of the lsx frequently comes to mind. That being said, in the 04 or 05 Gumball Rally, there was an old VW camper van with newer Porsche suspension and drivetrain components, as well as a Porsche engine. I'd love a 997 GT2 derived VW van. More recently I've also thought about a diesel swap into a 99-04 Flareside F150 Lightning clone, perhaps a Duramax/ 6 speed Allison running biodiesel.

I always thought that an old VW bus that was chopped and lowered, backed by substantial suspension components to handle in the twisties and finally topped with a twin turbo LS1 with a six speed would be absolutely amazing.
Also:
a '65 Malibu two-door wagon with a turbo v6 from a Grand National
although I'll probably get a lot of hate for this: a 2jztt + 6 speed Getrag from a Supra dropped into a Tacoma or similar Toyota mini truck.
Lastly:
E30 M3 BMW with a turbo s52 (engine from 99+ m3)

I was looking for diesel swap info and found this:
It's a GN clone with a 6.6 Duramax.

TT 454 LSx in a 84-88 Toyota pickup, 2wd, reg cab, lightweight.
Same motor in a 1990 300zx.
Same motor in a 1955 Caddy rag top.
BBC with a huge blower and scoop sticking out the hood in a 1968 Caddy hearse. Full drag car that would do wheel stands and run 8's. Would scare little kids and give the elderly heart attacks.
