that's the idea behind my suggestion
1300lb car with 350hp
you can probably put a 350v8 in there but the handling will suffer.

Werd. It would be the fastest of the selected, but definitley something with style. If you pick up a VR6 jetta or Golf to do this package instead, it'll be a little cheaper and potentially a little faster.
For 60K, you can't afford a lingenfelter or henessey. Find something with 6 or 8 cyls, rear wheel drive/AWD , and boost the shit out of it. Lightness is a plus, but some of these engines could put out 600 ft-lbs of torque so who cares.
Nissan RB25DETT (or 24, whatever) in a 240sx,
2JZ supra
3000GT VR-4
Rx-7 turbo or TT
4.6L 'stang GT (add a blower)
VW jetta/gti VR-6
1g or 2g AWD DSM @ 28 psi...
With that money, and a willingness to boost an engine, you can make a wide variety of cars very, very fast.
Just note that RWD/AWD, displacement, and lots of boost are typically the formulas for the "ultimate road machine".
