The cheapest power you can get right now is probably a stock bottom end LS, Gen III Hemi, or Coyote ford with a turbo charger on it. Its insane how fast some low budge builds have gone. One of our own members has stepped over to the darkside and gas a 8 second turbo LS mustang, I just can't remember his screen name lol.
The sloppy mechanics 8 seconds for $8000 build was interesting also. Started with nothing but knowledge and went 8.83 for 8000ish. Link

I accept all fast cars, the ones I own happen to be Mopars but I will pay attention and learn from all of it.
If my whole setup were to burn to the ground I would probably come back with a Fox body mustang with a Gen III hemi lol.
Ditto!
A neighbor friend has a really cool '70 Chevelle that has an LS with a turbo. I love learning about tuning it and helping him with it when I can.
It's so quiet and streetable yet runs 11.40's @ 119 @ 3,700 lbs on a 150,000 mile van engine.
