Ferrari : 308 : eBay Motors (item 300405394921 end time Mar-20-10 11:45:32 PDT)

Could be interesting.

Looks like a decent amount of room in there too. Nice alternative to a Pantera.

Always loved those, never thought about a swap.

The little V8s were kinda nice, but expensive to keep running I'm sure.

Put a 32v mod motor in there. With ITB's.

I've seen some pretty nice 328s around w/broken motors on the cheap, and the thought has been present. Only bummer is whatever you put in there surely wouldn't sound good as Ferrari.. :-/

I dunno, a built up 289 with ITB and EFI would be pretty pleasing to the ear. It wont have that flat plane sound to it, but pretty good.
