RWD... check out some Holden stuff. They had this engine in RWD apps and I know there'* some decent aftermarket for it in Australia.

RWD? I'll be interested to see your tunnel and unibody/subframe modifications. This is going to be a very long project.

What axle are you using for the rear?

Then why don't you just go for a full-blown L67 to begin with?
