I am thinking Pro Touring with no backseat? The Seca Laguna Boss 302 was backseat-delete to save weight, and that didn't seem to reduce desirability of the package. Pro Street is a tougher sell because they can be so impractical. If you could find an inexpensive 5.7 Hemi from a junkyard that would be worth considering.
5.7's are a nice motor and Fast in the E body - I think they have come a long way since I did my
install in my cuda back in 2004 - I still hear that set up still has issue's to work out yet - not
really sure about that?

My progress over the weekend is after I removed the front end parts,
I sanded then cleaned up the metal, coated as much of the frame inside and out, floors, roof,
inner fenders ect with metal spray
'Ospho' - to protect and convert any rust pits. then got allot of the frame inside and out with primer,
sealer, paint with clear mix.
The reason to do that now is, once the floor is in - I won't be able to hit those area's -
I will grind the weld area's, then spray weld coating before spot weld. Then repeat all over again.
The biggest thing with this car will be the panel alignment -
most critical - before I complete the spot weld:
(the floor, firewall, cross member all need weld)
to check level, square, gaps, up/down, in/out with the fenders,
hood, header panel, lower valance, doors, firewall, inner fenders, frames ---
just to tack them in with screws. Temp in the hinges, until I get it right to the chasis book specs -
