Drop that thing into an Arrow, rwd Colt, Cricket, 2wd D50 pickup, etc. and go fry tires. Drive it like you stole it, and when/if you scatter it, the u-pull yards will have the next engine. I wouldn't spend a lot on a 318 build, just basic gasket/ring/bearing job and a 340 cam.
I suggested he drop it in his Stealth a couple months back. Wouldn't be any faster than the TTV6 versions, maybe even marginally so than the stock R/T V6, especially at the 4200# those cars weigh, but would sure be fun to hear a V8 out of a former FWD car.
