I've read there is a racing series down under that uses the 4.0 1UZ as a spec engine!

In an SC that should be adequate!

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

Motor I'm going to use? The 3k mile dry sump LS3 I bought off of Racing Junk for $4500 now with Mahle pistons and Manley rods thanks to a cam not fitting. Just keep throwing Benjamin's at it and all your troubles will go away. Now trying to decide if I want GMPP ECM set up, FAST or Holley.......need more Benjamin's!
Time to sell my reliable Lateral G machine the C6 Z06, maybe I should use proceeds to buy back my X33 69 RS Xram JL-8 Z....how would this go over with my wife......for 1st 10 years of marriage that car had prized parking spot in garage while her ride was outside.....note to self need more shop space!
