    sort of looking to buy an 80s car with a v6 in order to look into a series II swap with my new cam setup. im kind of getting sick of the FWD thing and i think i can make a car a lot faster RWD and with less junk in it since it wont be (as) streetable as my grand prix. im not sure if i would stick with the blower to slap a turbo on it yet..

    i figure anything with a 2.8/3.1/3.4/3.8 would be a pretty easy swap. i dont really care if i lose all emissions passing ability or if none of the gauges or anything work anymore since it will be a completely redone car and it is old enough that emissions doesnt matter. i would be putting in all my own gauges probably. it would still be fuel injected, but i probably wouldnt use much of the original stuff since i would need to convert everything from a series II to make it work.

    so far ive come up with this list of cars that COULD work:

    regal
    cutlass
    monte carlo
    firebird
    camaro
    s-10


    anyone have any other ideas of something that would work in this lineup? i am leaning towards a firebird or camaro because they have sportier suspensions to begin with and look cooler. thoughts? ideas? comments? all are welcome.
