If you serious about swapping in a 3.4/3.6/3.8 or Jack Raby special... then I would suggest starting with a S model car... versus a '99 base. Others may not fully agree, but I think you'll want the bigger brakes, stronger suspension, stronger 6-speed tranny, etc. as the foundation to build on.

Good luck.
