Lots of knowledge and experience indicated here.

My research on this forum reveals that Mallett wants about $15K to $20K to install a 400 HP Corvette motor and all the associated gizmos. Suddenly the $25K car becomes a $40 to $45K car.

If great results could be had for $5K or so, then.....

Perhaps there is a way to install a crate motor (V-6?) and use as much of the existing power train and suspension as possible. For instance, are there other GM cars which use the base Solstice motor and which also have an upgrade option of a V-6? (see where I am going here?).

I understand that it could be possible to coax amazing power from a 4 banger - but it will still be a four banger.
