    fitment isn't as much as an issue as wiring everything up would be crazy

    i still cant figure why everyone is obsessed with "beams" engines all it is is an early variant of vvti- but if you really love it, get your grinder and prepare to make your car a rwd..

    Gen3 motors were also "Beams" made for FWD and available in Red, Black & Grey top versions

    Even sumped I think the main problem will be getting the inlet manifold in, it's massive.

    There's a Factory Blitz charged option as well, I'd be tempted to try something with the
    Blitz charger on a Gen1/2/3 though

    Or you could be really exclusive and find a super-rare "Type G" motor

    But for all-out hp, the turbo JGTC versions have to be the wildest of all the GE motors

    not worth it. just turbo swap your car, that's obviously the best and only option.

    Supercharged V6 would be even better!

    True, but for a relatively inexpensive, NA, unique swap the V6 is a good option. I still wish I had the money to do a V6 swap into a daily driver. Maybe if I ever get bored with auto-cross I could pick up another car for a daily driver.
