You'll get a mediocre engine at best. Pretty much just a 2.0L LS.

There are some flaws:

You'll never be able to spin it to 8K without breaking stuff. Therefore, the 403's are out of the question.

The rest is just basic bolt ons. Honestly, I'd say you're looking at no more than 140hp to the wheels, with stock cams. In order to run the 403s, you'd need forged rods and pistons.

This is getting to be a costly project for very mediocre results. For the same price, you could build a B18C and get something at least a little fast.

BTW- Mugen.
