Default C5 or C6 Transaxle?

I was thinking about making the handling of an F-body on par with the vettes. Would this be more of a pain or would it be doable and worth while to go to the extent to transplant a Transaxle into a 4th gen? Think it could get the weight distribution close to 50/50? Obviously it would involve some major body and chassis modifacations, maybe some style of a tube chassis? I like this idea, anyone agree with me on this?!?

Theres a couple thing in there you might want to read. It would definitely be a holy-crap load of work and i think for the amount it benefits you, it would be more of a conversational piece then anything. but im not one to shoot down radical ideas because that would be cool as hell. so if you do it post lots of pics. lol
