I've done the research. It has been done a few times. There is also, quiet a few Conquests with Ford 302s swapped into them. There's a company that even sells a swap kit with all required mounts and adapters.

This is a decent weighted car for track use. The swaps I have seen are from a late 90's GSX eclipse. The little truck motor in there is a decent driver engine, but not for the track; the stroke is too long and only a 12 valve wet manifold as I recall.
Would like to hear more of your plans for SCCA.
