I'll restore my Lakewood, but I've been thinking about dropiing the powertrain from a 3.8L late model Camaro/Firebird into my 1981 museum piece V-6 LeMans. Seems like it would be almost a bolt up, and far superior to the 2 bbl/3 speed THM 200 setup it came with. If anyone has any ideas on that, I'd like to hear them!
