    LS1 swapped would be a huge undertaking. Plenty of other fun FWD drive engines you can swap in.

    3800 turbo will do just as much as you need for your car to be insanely bad ass. An LS1 would be crazy but you would just be eating transmissions like candy.

    At the end of the day if you want a monster engine a turbo is the best for the dollar. A mild to moderate build a supercharger is fine.

    Looks good I hope you have a nice spot to put the painted parts so they stay safe until the rest of the car is done. Looks like you still have quite a bit of work left before painting the body.
