In the long run, you'll be able to build it up better without shelling out as much (including FI, etc.) The C5 does come with the better LSD, but IMO that's an acceptable sacrifice...

Oh god I wish I had the money for one. I've heard of it being done, but never done it myself. I've done something harder though: F20C with a RWD conversion. We didn't do the undercarriage molding, but we installed the drivetrain and everything else. The front frame rail had to be removed and placed lower, and the front of the engine bay basically gets compacted and pushed forward. There was a funny-ass bump under the center console too for the RWD tranny... looked quite strange. Went quite fast too. But it's so much work that it's pretty much not worth the money. When you figure upwards of $5,500 or $6,000 for the motor and tranny, plus the driveline, frame and body work, suspension/brakes, etc., it just gets ridiculous... I think the guy said he ended up spending more than $14k for the whole job. But he was happy with it...
