That sounds amazing. My ultimate fantasy build along those lines is the V10 out of the e60 M5 in an e31 8-series with maybe some dinan bits for good measure.

A v12 r107 is up there too, one of our members actually swapped it (I cant remember off the top of my head, begins with R and the car is named Sampson IIRC). I remember seeing it at a gtg years back. These 107s just ooze class.
