Interior: Mostly Stock, Custom 4 point roll cage just like yours  , Racing seats with 4 point harnessess. (probably remove rear seat and put speakers in its place)Motor: Crate GM 350 250hp/300tq (Vortec sounds good though) Transmission: Th350, 2200rpm stall converter, B&M shift kit Rear End: shortened and hardened axles, stock 3.08 gearing (same as yours)

Well, not a project Z... we both plan on getting a Z for ourselves.
A LT1 or LS1 would cost wayy to much, much more than i'm willing to spend on a daily driver/project car. But i'll be sure to keep an eye out for wrecked F-bodies to see if I can snag one.

Yeah the LT1 or LS1 would be awesome but it would just be to much money. Overall though for a fun sleeper that is really quick I really believe in the Datsun 8 cylinder conversions. they have books and manuals and everything that proves they are a cheaper easier way to go fast with these cars than with turbos. Though the turbos are sweet its just to much money and crap to worry about and squeeze in there. so yeah go Datsun performance. well techinically its american muscle sooooo.. Go Datsun light weight import bodies!!!!
Oh and GO V8 TORQUE

The Swap is super easy, with the right tools you can have it done in about a months time.
Weight, well the great thing is the 350 is shorter in length so it brings the center of gravity moretowards the center of the car. Plus the 350 only weighs 140lbs more than the 2.8l 6 cyclinder. Suspension can be tightened up easily too. Oh and the cost, you buy the conversion kit for like 300, cost of a motor, a tranny (which ihave a th350 from the 72), odds and ends You can probably build a V8 240z for about $4000, maybe a bit less. Which you get a car that weighs less than a civic, has the power of a F-body, you can run low 12 second passes easy, and still get like 20mpg. Plus you can say you built it yourself
