It seems to me it would be much easier to start from a RWD 3800. The
FWD engines are much more available and probably cheaper, and the
supercharged engine is tempting, but you have to consider the intake
manifold, the exhaust manifolds (probably won't pop out where you'd
like for RWD), and as you mention the bellhousing pattern. Why not
just skip all that and get a complete 3800/4L60E out of Camaro? They
usually come with the exhaust manifolds, maybe cats, transmission,
maybe the crossmember if you ask, and if you want a manual the pedals
are easy to find. Look around the classifieds at www.ls1tech.com/forums
for leads.

Peace,
Harry
