That's the aluminum block 5.3L motor from Chevy extended cab pickups. It has a T56 behind it. Before that, I had an FC coupe with a built LS1/T56 combo. I did a track day it in and the power was phenomenal. It overwhelmed the stock 4 pot Turbo II brakes!
We never did get a chance to try it with fresh hipo pads and a new caliper on the left front. It was fun pulling on the Cobra Replicas even if we couldn't stop as well.

The lightest MK3 I've found is just under 2800 lbs, and it's a full on track car. That said, it's not that hard to get a MK3 down to 3200 lbs or so. Mine, almost bone stock, was 3450 ish.I am aiming squarely to trounce that "record". I would like to get it below 2700, eventually, with lots of composite work.
More Carbon than FRP, but likely a mix of the two.
Wow, $$$$$ or did you figure out some way to do it on the cheap. If you figured out how to do it on the cheap I really want to know how.
